Sherry’s Story
Sherry loves the personable and professional service at DC Credit Union. The convenience and member service is what keeps Sherry coming back to DC Credit Union.
Saving a nest egg for her future with the help of DC Credit Union.
“I like the products, I like the convenience and the services associated with having an account at the DC Credit Union.”
Sherry’s first exposure to DC Credit Union was when credit union representatives came to visit to her employer to let them know about the products and services they offer to agency employees.
At the time, Sherry was caught between whether to open up a savings account with a bank or with the credit union. After talking with a DC Credit Union employee and hearing about what the credit union could offer, she decided to open up an account with DC Credit Union.
She has been really happy with her decision. Opening up her checking and savings accounts has enabled Sherry to start saving, which is very important to her. By starting to put money aside every month, Sherry has built a small nest egg.
“I feel good about the savings that I’m currently undertaking,” says Sherry. “The convenience allows me to continue to save. The staff, their products—everything is excellent.”
According to Sherry, as she gets up in age, she intends to continue saving with the credit union so that she can have a nice little savings under her belt for retirement.
Sherry’s recommendations for saving for retirement:
- Start saving now. Even if you can only put aside a small amount every month, get started!
- Get started with a DC Credit Union savings account
- An IRA (Independent Retirement Account) is a great way to save for retirement
- Set up direct deposit or payroll distribution to make saving even easier.
