Your questions for Tess Vigeland and the Los Angeles Times’s David Lazarus this week: One man who left Bank of America is looking for a safe place with low fees to put his stock portfolio, a laid-off worker wonders whether she should withdraw from Social Security now or later and a couple is trying to decide how to pay down credit card debt, contribute to their retirement and build up an emergency fund.
Marketplace is on a mission.
We believe Main Street matters as much as Wall Street, economic news is made relevant and real through human stories, and a touch of humor helps enliven topics you might typically find…well, dull.
Through the signature style that only Marketplace can deliver, we’re on a mission to raise the economic intelligence of the country—but we don’t do it alone. We count on listeners and readers like you to keep this public service free and accessible to all. Will you become a partner in our mission today?
