WEEK 2: CBS 6 Answers Team responds to your questions
On the same day the Dow fell below 8,000 for the first time in five years, and debate continued over the merits of bailing out the auto industry, it was no wonder our phones remained abuzz and our online chat boxes continued to flash in our second CBS 6 Answers Team Live Web Chat and Phone Bank.
In our ongoing effort to equip you with information and resources to help you manage this complicated economy, our Answers Team assembled in the CBS 6 newsroom for the second week in a row to field your questions related to personal finance, mortgages, stocks, credit and jobs.
On our phone bank were:
- MORTGAGES: Drew Aiello of Best Interest Mortgage
- RETIREMENT: Bob Fazio of Smith Barney
- RETIREMENT: Thomas Schmitz of Smith Barney
