(NNPA)—Recently Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke acknowledged the economic “elephant” in the room—that the U.S. economy has weakened far more than expected and, Bernanke called the economic recovery “inherently uncertain.” Bernanke’s affirmation of the economy’s sluggish economic recovery comes after a week of troubling economic news.
Getting the message? It is time to dig deep for your inner treasury assets and resources to embrace your entrepreneurial nature to have a hand in your personal economic recovery.

WASHINGTON (AP)—President Barack Obama will call on Congress to pass new tax breaks that would allow businesses to write off 100 percent of their new capital investments through 2011, the latest in a series of proposals the White House is rolling out in hopes of showing action on the economy ahead of the November elections.
An administration official said the tax breaks would save businesses $200 billion over two years, allowing companies to have more cash on hand. The president will outline the proposal during a speech on the economy in Cleveland Sept. 8.

You’ve undoubtedly heard the phrases 401(k), 403(b), IRA, Roth, TSP, and 457 plans. Do you know what they mean? Are these the latest Levi blue jeans? Are these the new and approved Mazda, Honda, Lexus series? If you’re having a difficult time sorting out the “alphabet soup” of retirement plans, don’t feel ashamed. While many people have heard of the different types of retirement plans, very few understand the difference between these plans. If you ever sat in on one of those 401(k) meetings at work or met with a financial adviser, you’ll understand why. Most financial professionals use a language that’s suited for another financial geek, not the everyday layperson.
