Take the risk & higher returns
Okay, let's be transparent. While Columbia Credit Union offers great, insured IRA certificates and savings accounts*, you're young. You can probably handle some investment risk and, yes, potentiallybenefit from the higher returns
that can potentially come with uninsured investment products, like mutual funds and stocks.
Columbia's Wealth Management department is ready to help you invest. Like caring teachers, our
representatives will demystify investment choices and help you pick accounts that best fit your
personal goals. Schedule an appointment online or call 360.891.4093.
In 50 years (sooner if you save more now), you could be the "millionaire next door." Calculate other
savings goals using our online calculator tool.
