A squirrel fund E m e r g e n c y fund in bonds?

Dear Dave, My husband works construction, so we barely scrape by during the winter months. Should we build an emergency fund for the slow times?

Cathy Dear Cathy, I think that’s a great idea. Although, I’d probably call it something other than an emergency fund. How about a squirrel fund? Squirrels need to have nuts saved up for winter, and in your case you’d be setting money aside during the summer to get you through the slow winter months.

You may think I’m playing games with the name, but really I’m not. This sort of saving isn’t for emergencies. It’s a budget issue, because you’re planning and setting aside cash leading up to the down time you know is coming.

Keep your emergency fund of three to six months of expenses separate from this, and take a careful look at what he made this winter and how much that left you short each month.

Remember, we’re not talking about some random amount of money here.

It’s an exact amount that you can budget for accordingly. Teachers can do the same thing if they’re not paid 12 months a year. It’s a simple matter of planning ahead for the down time, and setting aside enough during the other nine months to see you through!

—Dave

44

Vol. 18 Issue 920 January 17 - 24, 2014

Dear Dave, What do you think about the idea of putting your emergency fund into bonds?

Ryan Dear Ryan, I think that’s a really bad idea, and here’s why. Bond values and prices go down as long-term interest rates rise.

Right now, long-term interest rates— a good example would be mortgage rates—are ticking up. They’ve moved up a quarter of a percent recently. So, as this happens, the value of bonds goes down. If these interest rates spiked, you could lose half your emergency fund.

Never, ever put your emergency fund into things where risk and volatility are factors. An emergency fund isn’t an investment. It’s there to help protect things that are investments and your life. Keep it in something safe and simple, like a money market account where there’s no penalty for early withdrawal.

We’re not looking to make money with an emergency fund, Ryan. It’s insurance. Just let it sit there, safe and sound, until it’s needed.

—Dave

Network Into Your Next Job Networking can help you...

1. Get the word out that you are in a job search.

2. Gain advice about your job search techniques.

3. Uncover job leads in the “hidden job market.”

4. Get referrals to other individuals or organizations that you’re targeting.

5. Learn more about specific positions, fields, or industries.

6. Gather information about specific companies.

7. Expand your network.

8. Keep your current network alive while meeting new people.

9. Help others get what they want, even if it’s a warm introduction from you.

Getting Clear

It’s important to let your network know that you are in a job search. They can’t help you if they don’t know! And without clearly defined job targets, i.e., specific

positions, industries, and companies you are seeking, it can be even harder for your network to help. Job seekers often tell me, “I’m open. I’ll work for any company or industry.” While that may be true, the more focused you are, the better your job search; the easier you make it for others to help you.

Feedback

Your network can provide you feedback on your job search techniques and refer you to other individuals or organizations.

They can also offer insight into a new position, field, or industry if you are contemplating a job or career change. And, your network can share with you what it’s like to work at a particular company.

Hidden Job Market

Many job openings aren’t advertised.

Considered the “hidden job market,” it’s your job to uncover those leads. Employers oftentimes go to their employees for referrals when trying to fill an open

I encourage my clients make you feel much better. to create a list of target companies and then do an advanced search on LinkedIn to identify contacts that work at those companies. Oftentimes it’s your second or third level contacts that are going to be most helpful in your search. Ask your first level contacts to introduce you to your second level contacts that work at your target companies.

Volunteering

Harvey MacKay, business guru, and author of Use Your Head to Get Your Foot in the Door and Dig Your Well Before You’re Thirsty, encourages those just laid-off to immediately start volunteering.

Consider volunteering on a high-profile fundraising event for a local charity. Not only will it allow you the opportunity to develop or fine-tune your leadership, fundraising, and/or speaking skills, it will give you a chance to network with

ASK DIANA

Q: I met you once before, but you saying less might get you more. were a much larger woman then. Q: I am a 50+ year old female Anyways, I have been having trouble finding a job for the last week, and my unemployment has run out. I live on B______, right behind the _____ dealership, and it would be easy to walk to this job. I have been on a lot of short-term jobs lately, but I’m alone and have only myself to support. I had to borrow money to pay my rent, car payment, and utilities, but I’m okay for this month. I have a little money saved, but I can’t touch that. I keep it in an envelope under the corner of the rug in my living room, but I can’t spend any of it. I was on three interviews this week, and I’m waiting for one of them to call me. Do you have any advice for me?

-Houston, Texas Reader

A: I do. Don’t make personal comments about the interviewer and don’t tell strangers where you live and where you hide your money. You said that your last 6 or 7 jobs were short-term, and I have to wonder if they would have been longer term if you hadn’t been so outspoken. You really talk a LOT. I can see that it might be difficult to work with you because you don’t seem to filter what you are saying. Trust me on this:

in Houston. I think that I am a quality job applicant, yet I have not managed to secure a job on my own.

I have a BA Degree in languages (but speaking Afrikaans, English, Dutch and German isn’t a big advantage!)

I also have several years experience in mortgage, trade and real estate. I don’t want to rewrite Moby Dick and bore you, but I feel that I need to be explicit to receive your insight. I have notably good office administrative skills and am professional and tech savvy with a good speaking voice as well as administrative and office coordination skills. I am detailoriented, industrious, sharp, polished, and loyal. I have a “can do” attitude and work ethic beyond the company’s expectations. I believe in doing things well and in completing projects by being organized, efficient and goodnatured.

Past employers have noted that I am an asset to them and my references are good. I have been told that I have innate people skills that bring peace and productivity to my workplace.

Have a question for Diana?

Email AskDiana@JobSparx.com

I want to belong where I work and contribute to the greater good.

Longevity has been sorely lacking in the last 10 years as I suffered through 3 different companies shutting their doors, filing for bankruptcy protection and laying off the staff. I feel that somehow the short periods of work times in between these meltdowns in the mortgage industry reflect on me. Before that, I was a long-time employee and not a job jumper as it now would appear! My cell phone number has a Seattle area code, and I hope it is not a deterring factor in my job search. I have had this number for the last 9 years.

- Houston Reader with Job Search Doldrums

A: The first thing I’ll tell you is the last thing in your letter: don’t explain your cell number. Many, many people have kept numbers for years and no one faults them for it. Your resume lists a Houston address and shows that you have worked in Houston for various companies. They’ll understand that you are simply retaining a phone number.

It is fine for you to tell me how old you are, but don’t tell prospective employers. They need to hire without considering your age, and you might tempt them to discriminate.

The financial meltdown of the mortgage industry is well documented, and it would be hard to believe that employers are looking at that as a detriment. They may simply not need people with your experience. You sound like an ideal employee who gives loyalty and hard work to your employer, and that is a rare commodity today!

tions about If you have any ques or work, just interviewing, hiring, love to hear email Ask Diana. I’d e volume of from you. Due to th question will response, not ever y n, but most appear in the colum ive an email questions will rece 3 days. response within 2 to
