(NAPS)—There are some easy
ways to start building your nest
egg—despite the fact that the U.S.
personal savings rate hit zero per-
cent this summer, the second-low-
est rate since the Great Depression.
i Many Americans are living
with little or no financial cushion
and may be borrowing money for
everything from necessities to
financial emergencies. One way to
start putting some money aside is
to take advantage of your tax
refunds. A new tool may help peo-
ple do just that. Called an Express
Savings account, the product is
customized for taxpayers who
want to use their tax refunds to
start saving, but who also need
access to the funds. ,
“People want to save, but they
get derailed by all kinds of unfore-
seen expenses,” said Mark Cia-
ramitaro of H&R Block, the com-
pany that offers the savings
account. “Now that clients can
open an account with their tax
refund, they may become more
financially stable.”
A tax refund may be the only
“extra” cash that many people will
receive during the course of the
year. The interest-bearing savings
account—along with H&R Block’s
Express IRA retirement account—
combine the need to save with the

"The federal emergency

Oklahoma and Texas extremely
closely," Paulison said. "The
National Interagency Fire Center in
Boise is supporting the operational
needs of all states. FEMA will con-
tinue to provide coordination and
support at the regional and national
level as needed."
Federal fire management assis-
tance is provided through the
President’s Disaster Relief Fund
and made available by FEMA to
assist in fighting fires that threaten
to cause a major disaster. Eligible
costs covered by the aid can
include expenses for field camps;
equipment use. repair and replace-
ment; tools, materials and supplies;
sheltering; and mobilization and
demobilization activities.
FEMA prepares the nation for all
hazards and manages federal
response and recovery efforts fol-
lowing any national incident.

activities, trains first responders,
