ITMs – You can do MORE!

If you need teller assistance, just touch the screen, and they’ll be there for you.

  • Choose specific cash withdrawal amounts, such as $23, $57, etc. 
  • Transfer money between your Savings and Checking accounts. 
  • Check your Savings and Checking account balances. 
  • Deposit up to 50 checks or cash, all at once.

From 401(k)s to Roth IRAs: Demystifying Retirement Accounts

With so many responsibilities in our day-to-day lives, it’s common to feel unprepared for the
future. If you’ve ever caught yourself staring at your 401(k) statement blankly or questioning
whether a Roth IRA is the right move, you’re not alone. With guidance, these accounts can feel
less daunting and more like tools you can confidently use to secure your future.

401(k)

A 401(k) is like a retirement starter pack, especially if your employer offers a match (which is
free money!). Contributions are taken out of your paycheck before taxes, which lowers your
taxable income now, however you’ll pay taxes when you withdraw in retirement. It’s a great
choice because it’s automatic – set it, forget it, and watch savings grow. Be aware that if you
withdraw early, you’ll face income taxes as well as a 10% penalty. This is your meant to be long-term, can’t-touch-it money.

Example: If you’re earning $50,000 a year and contribute 10% to your 401(k) with a 3%
employer match, that’s $6,500 saved
