First
Individual
Retirement
Account.
For future financial security if you're currently without a retirement pl*«
If you're a wage earner or self
employed and not presently
covered by any other quali­
fied retirement plan, you can
act now to establish your own
First Individual Retirement
Account (IRA).
Tax Sheltered. The First
IRA enables you to save 15%
of your gross wages or earned
income up to $1,500 per year,
whichever is less, and deduct
this sum from your taxable
Federal and State of Oregon
income.
This can mean a substantial
tax savings every year until
you retire. What's more, you’ll
be earning a high rate of in­
terest— 714% annually,* com
pounded and credited quarterly
— which is tax deferred until
retirement.
At that time, when you
begin withdrawing funds, the
amount withdrawn will be
treated as taxable income, but
irou will probably be in a
ower tax bracket
Rapid financial growth,
you are 25
□vantage of
the First IRA contributing the
maximum $1,500 each year,
you'll be eligible to receive
upon retirement at age 65 up
to $388,243'
If both husband and wife
work and neither participate
in an employer plan, then both
may have an IRA and receive
a combined maximum tax
deduction of $3,000 per year.
Easy to Open. Opening
your IRA is as easy as open­
ing a savings account. Just
visit your First National branch
and apply You can start your
plan with as little as $100 with
additional deposits of $25 or
more made as often as you
want up to your maximum
For more convenience, you
can authorize First National
to deduct IRA deposits, start­
ing at $25, automatically from
your checking account
If you're without a retire
ment plan, see your First
National branch about an
IRA The sooner you start
yours today, the more finan­
cial security you'll have
tomorrow
In the business of life
there’s a list time
for everything.
