Buying a car is one of the dreams that many people have had since childhood. The dream may have never faltered but the circumstances have changed. The economic conditions are harsher now than ever before making it almost impossible to live the dream. However, there is hope in auto finance for everybody.

Auto finance is a loan offered to individuals to help boost them in their pursuit of buying a car. Just like any other loan, this finance requires an individual to exhibit certain characteristics. For instance, your credit rating should be acceptable to the lender, otherwise you are doomed. A good credit works well with all loan providers while a bad credit is only accepted easily by special lenders.

The lenders of auto finance include banks and other financial institutions, credit unions, car finance companies and car dealers. Each of them has a specific rule of operation which includes the requirements and the rates charged.

Aviva insurance has revealed that December 25th is the worst day of the year for domestic fires in the home, with claims soaring by 140%.

Indeed, Christmas is a very dangerous time in regards to fire incidents. According to the Fire Kills campaign, one in six fire deaths last year occurred in December, and about 1,400 house fires were started by cooking appliances last December, resulting in more than 300 injuries.

Because of this, Fire Kills has launched a Christmas campaign aiming to warn people about the risks of fire and to give them top tips to help people celebrate safely this festive season:

• The distractions of a crowded house and celebrations can often result in festive cooking being left unattended, and this is one of the main causes of fire. Because of this, it is important never to leave cooking unattended, avoid cooking whilst drunk and always turn off kitchen appliances when you have finished cooking.
• Christmas is also a time in which more people tend to smoke. Cigarettes are also a serious risk for fires.

The financial situation for many people in the UK who are approaching retirement is becoming ever more desperate, as a growing number of individuals realise that they have not saved enough to fund their retirement, once it has become too late to do anything about it.

Whilst the economic climate in the UK is making it much harder for anyone to save money, or get a decent return from their savings, many people in the over 50’s age group are still struggling to pay off their home owner loan and in some cases, unsecured debts, such as personal loans and credit card debts.

And the situation seems to be getting worse for many in this age group, as the average savings pot for those over the age of 55 has fallen by around 27 per cent over the course of the past twelve months, according to research from Aviva.

As well as the fact that many over 55 year olds are still paying off existing loan and credit card debts, the average earnings for this age group have also fallen by around 4 per cent, whilst inflation is still running at more than 5 per cent, leaving many in the position where they are finding it hard to repay their personal loan debts, let alone save for retirement.

As a result of this problem, there has been a significant increase in the number of people who own their own property, taking advantage of equity release loans, or lifetime mortgages, as a way of helping to fund their retirement plans.

The research found that two thirds of recent retirees regret not having saved more towards their retirement planning and even with the use of an equity release loan, many who had planned to retire at the age of 65 will undoubtedly be forced to continue in work for many years beyond this age.

Friday’s bond market has opened in negative territory yet again, following stronger than expected employment news. The stock markets are showing early strength, but their gains appear to be more a result of news from overseas regarding the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund than this morning’s economic data. Early gains in stock futures before this morning’s economic data was released and little change after the data was posted indicates that stock traders were more impressed by the overseas news than the Employment report.

Still, the major stock indexes are showing sizable gains with the Dow up 113 points and the Nasdaq up 30 points. The bond market is currently down 7/32, but due to yet another rally during afternoon hours yesterday, we will likely see this morning’s mortgage rates improve by approximately .125 of a discount point ifparing to Thursday’s morning pricing.

The Labor Department gave us this morning’s major economic data with the release November’s Employment report at 8:30 AM ET.
