Have You Tliis Contentment?

One of the fine things in life is contentment. A savings account helps to make contentment. In itself, a savings account is so many dollars money. But far beyond the intrinsic value of the money in a savings account is its power to accomplish good. Money wiil not buy happiness, but rightly used brings happiness. If there is the feeling that no matter what the future holds in the. way of sudden illness, loss of work, or the unexpected emergency, that there is ready money in the bank to protect the steady saver, then there is contentment, peace of mind. Take note of contented, confident people. Invariably you will find that they have a keptup savings account. Four months from today comes Christmas. Are you saving for Christmas?
