USE 1975 TAX DOLLARS to start building your RETIREMENT fund A 0 .at MARENGO FEDERAL SAVINGS ! P' I New tax shelters on retirement savings plans now make it possible for many Americans to boost their retirement funds by tens of thousands of dollars. The money you put in a Marengo Federal IRSA or KEOGH Plan is fully deductible from current gross income even though you do not itemize other deductions. The high interest earned by your savings is also tax-deferred until you retire. Compounding of the interest over the years generates more dollars to build a retirement fund much, much larger than would be possible with taxed dollars. The table shows just how much more you can accumulate. If you are a wage earner not covered by a pension plan, or if you are self-employed--such as a farmer, doctor, attorney, carpenter... you should investigate the great benefits of these tax-sheltered plans now. A Marengo Federal Savings specialist can explain and figure your benefits. There is no cost or obligation. Visit any Marengo Federal office or use the convenient coupon. Remember., .the sooner you start, the sooner you save tax dollars. HOW YOUR RETIREMENT SAVINGS GROW WITH INTEREST IN A TAX-SHELTERED PLAN AT MARENGO FEDERAL.
