The fact is an ARM that you took a year ago could easily adjust to 6.5 percent or 7 percent percent at the next adjustment. Contrast that with the ability to lock in 6 percent for the next five years.

It's really a wise strategy to do that -- to throw whatever you can at the balance.

You'll be hurting your credit history.

The prospect of future rate hikes will push yields on CDs even higher, making them even more attractive.

For consumers, it will create some confusion. Saying you have a credit score of 750, for example, takes on a whole new meaning. It was a good score on the old system but is only fair in the new one.

That's the $64,000 question. Seventy percent of economic output is tied to consumer spending. The idea is to raise rates enough to stave off inflation, but not so as to curtail spending.

That's where the payment pain is going to come for a lot of households.

There are some very attractive savings offers for consumers right now. Average rates on [certificates of deposit] are the highest they have been in almost five years.

It's not the highest rate, but it's very competitive.

This has been a good time for CD investors. It's long overdue. Income-dependent investors like retirees are seeing their cash investments finally bear fruit.

The market is going to slow from the frenetic pace of the past few years. But with fixed mortgage rates remaining below 7 percent, and expected to (remain there) for the balance of 2006, the purchase market will still be very healthy relative to historical levels.

Conventional wisdom says if you're getting a large refund, it's a bad thing, that you've lent money to the government for free for the past year. If your refund is the only way you can save, who's to say it's a bad idea? It may not be the best way to save, but it's better than nothing at all.

Fee income is the great stabilizer of bank earnings, particularly in unfavorable interest rate environments such as the one we're currently experiencing.

It's a game of cat-and-mouse in many ways. But there is a line that banks are reluctant to cross, and it's one where they alienate customers because of fees.
