When you buy something on
sale, you may get a really good break on the price — but you’re still
spending money. What if you could purchase something valuable at a
substantial discount, but instead of spending money, you have the
potential to make money? Sound too good to be true? Well, that’s exactly
what happens with the [Company Name removed] Employee Stock Purchase Program
(ESPP). Here’s how it works: the company deducts the amount you choose
between 1% and 10% of your gross pay, and uses it to buy shares of [Company Name removed] stock in your name at a 5% discount. The next quarterly enrollment period is
this month, Mar. 4 – Mar. 18. If you’re not taking advantage of ESPP,
why not start your nest egg now? Or, if you already participate in ESPP,
let us know if it’s helped you toward your financial goals or enabled
you to do something special. Share your experience!
