If your money is earning 8 per cent and being eaten into at the rate of 9 per cent, it will last 28 years; and if the withdrawal is at 10 per cent, 20 years. Money earning 9 per cent and being used up at the rate of 10 per cent will last 26 years.

All of which is extremely interesting even though it offers no guaranteed basis for a withdrawal program by an investor who can't know how long he will be around to do the withdrawing. PROBABLY RIGHT Q. I read la your column about tax-free bonds and bonds that yield 7 per cent and think these would be better for me than the 6 per cent received from a special savings account. A broker said tax-free bonds would yield about 5 or 5 per cent but that there would be a commission. All in all it sounded as though I would not be as well off as I am in the bank with my $5,900.

A. You're probably right. If this $5,000 is the total of money you have for investment it should remain in an insured savings account Corporate (taxable) bonds will yield, around 7 per cent and tax-exempt bonds about 5 to 5 per cent, on average. Commissions for buying and selling five bonds might come to $25 for each transaction. The tax-exempt bond would not be right for you unless you are in an income tax bracket of 30-35 per cent.

The corporate bond would yield 1 per cent more than the bank, but would subject you to market floe tuations. Furthermore, if you needed the money in a hurry there is ho guaranty that you would get back all you invested. (You could, of get back- a bit "more if the market goes with you.)

Benton township firemen reported they extinguished a fire in a number of auto seats yesterday. The seats, however, were in the basement of a residence.

assault and battery charge against Lowell Reisig, 45, of 1620 Colfax avenue, Benton township, was dismissed because a subpoena could not be served on the main witness. The witness was out of town on business when, officers attempted to serve the subpoena according to, court records. Reisig had been charged with striking Richard Heimel in Oronoko township July 4.

'Charges of delivering mescaline Aug. 31 on Longhorn Trail, Stevensville were dismissed for Carol Ann Campbell, 17, of 154 Messner drive, Benton township. Assistant prosecuting attorneys involved with the dismissals of charges against Olson and Carol Campbell could not be reached as to why the cases were dropped. BY SAM SHULSKY ONE OF THE MOST frequent reader queries runs something like this: If I dip Into my capital, how long will it last? This question comes, generally, from two different groups of retired investors: l) those who can't live on income alone and are forced to dip into capital to make ends meet; and 2 those who have no heirs and are not interested in leaving an estate. The question is a fair one even though there is no positive answer since there is no hard and fast method of determining Just bow long one will live.

Life Insurance companies and those religious, educational and charitable institutions which sell lifetime annuities don't know eithes. But they do have the benefit of mortality tables and by pooling large amounts of money can guaranty a lifetime income, figuring that what they may lose on the long-lived Does they will make up on the shorter-lived Roes or vice versa. However, for what it's worth, the most recent issue of Breyits, issued montniy by Vance, Sanders the mutual fund people, carries an extremely interesting chart showing how long your money will last if it is earning per cent annually and if you are withdrawing at the rate of per cent each year. The chart shows that if your money is earning 5 per cent a year (and, these times of high interest rates there certainly is. no reason for you letting it work for less) and if you are withdrawing at the rate of 6 per cent a year your money will last 36 years.

If the withdrawal Is at the rate of 7 per cent the money will last 25 at 8 per cent, 20 years; at 9 per cent, 16 years and at 10 per cent, 14 years. If your money is invested at 8 per coot, an annual withdrawal of 7 per cent of your capital will exhaust your money in 33 years; at 8 per cent, 23 years at 9 per cent, 11 years and at 10 per years. ,4 If your money is earning 7 per cent, and you withdraw at the rate of 8 per cent the fund wMuutWyemjlf wnMrawal fttaft cent, ttyeart aadat Beautiful. -i I I WNW A(rCEF)NG I fl Holiday Parties Business Meetings I 1 I IN OUR NEW PRIVATE ROOM When it's 5 p.m. and your secretary reminds you that she won't be in tomorrow, you might like to know your Manpower Service Representative, Beverly Kiehn.
