If you live in a rural area, are without decent safe and sanitary housing, and are unable to obtain a loan from private lenders on terms and conditions that can be reasonably met, you may qualify for a rural credit home owner­ ship loan. Apply for the loan at the Farm ers Home Administra­ tion office in your county. True Mileage A 1972 law gives the buyer protection against automobile sellers who m isrep­ resent the mileage and condition of the auto by turning back the odometer Whether you are buy­ ing or selling a car, a signed statem ent from the seller for the buyer must contain the following information ; the vehicle's actual odometer reading and statement that this is a correct Record of the actual mileage, or a state­ ment that the vehicle’s true mileage is unknown. If you are buying a used car, be sure to ask for the disclosure statement. Let Survivor Decide Are you planning to buy life insurance? You will have to decide not only who will be your beneficiary, but how the benefits will be paid - in a lump sum, for example, or extended over a period of time. Consider leaving the choice of payment method to the benefici­ ary. Finance needs may change between now and the time the insurance is paid. Social Security Change. You are drawing social security pay­ ments but still working part- time? Beginning in January you will be able to earn more without loss of benefits under a change in the law. You can earn $2400 instead of $2100 with no loss of payment, and benefits will be payable in any month earnings are $200 or less. Know your Rights. The F air Credit Reporting Act of 1970 protects you, but only if you know its provisions. For example, have you been refused credit lately because of some adverse information in your credit report? If you have, the lender must inform you in writing of the name and address of the agency making the report. THURSDAY, JAN. 3, 1374 5 You then have the right to see your credit file, without cost, and to challenge any information in the file that is incorrect. Sew to Save. Would a sewing machine help stretch your w ard­ robe budget’ You npght buy a used machine and make some of your own clothes. I i>nk for machines at retail or second-hand stores, garage sales, and in the classi­ fied ads To know what to look for in the machine, consult ‘‘Used Sewing Machines-A Good Buy," a booklet available from the Government Printing Office, Washington, D C for 25 cents. Understanding Credit. When you buy on credit and ask for the rate of interest, the lender may quote you a “discounted ra te ” rather than the annual percen­ tage rate Under the truth-in­ lending law, this is illegal. Ask for the annual percentage rate if it isn't quoted to you. An easy but imprecise way of converting the discount rate to the annual percentage rate is simply to multiply it by two. Therefore, a “discounted” rate of 6 per cent is actually 12 per cent annual percentage rate. Ask the Right Questions. Buy­ ing a new appliance? You may be encouraged to buy a service contract (an insurance policy that will pay for repairs to the appliance). Before you decide, ask questions about the guaran­ tee and what it covers. You don’t want to buy a service contract that pays for costs already included in the guarantee. Also be sure to read what is excluded under your service contract. It may not pay for service required because of improper use of the appliance. New Y ear’s Tip. Is the fire insurance on your house keeping up with its increasing value? The Insurance Information Institute estimates that at least one in four U.S. homes is not adequate­ ly insured. Now, while you are going over family financial affairs for the coming year, is the time to check the coverage on your house. No Tipping How much should you tip those who pack and move your furniture? Nothing. The Interstate Commerce Commis­ sion says it is unlawful, in moves across state lines, to tip any moving company employee or representative. It is also unlaw­ ful for them to solicit or accept a tip. If a moving company em­ ployee suggests you pay a tip, report the m atter to Motor Carriers Section.
