One Important Date: April 17
The tax filing deadline is extended to April 17 this year because April 15 falls on a Sunday and Emancipation Day, a holiday observed in the District of Columbia, falls on Monday, April 16 this year. So we get an extra couple of days to file! This also means you have an extra couple of days to make regular IRA contributions for 2011. You have until your tax return due date (not including extensions) to contribute up to $5,000 for 2011 ($6,000 if you were age 50 by December 31, 2011). You can contribute to a traditional IRA, a Roth IRA, or both, as long as your total contributions don't exceed the annual limit. You may also be able to contribute to an IRA for your spouse, even if your spouse didn't have any income in 2011. |

| "You can make a lot of money just by asking for it."
Sometimes, simply asking for a better price on something can get you one. Ask your cable provider, telephone company, doctor, dentist, and insurance company if they can give you a better price or rate. What you may find is that a modest investment of your time and the willingness to speak up can pay back hundreds of dollars.
This month's Financial Fitness Challenge encourages you to speak up and wait for an offer, then monitor your bills to make sure the deal you struck is the deal you get. Check out this month's Financial Fitness Challenge, register, and you could win $50!
