  • (Fall) Bonds have an inverse relationship to interest rates. When interest rates rise, bond prices fall and when interest rates fall, bond prices rise. To expand further, as interest rates go up and new bonds are issued that pay a higher yielding interest rate than older bonds already in the hands of investors, the older bonds are now worth less.

  • Correct

  • (3-6 months) An emergency fund is money that is readily accessible (typically in a savings or money market) when an unexpected event occurs. Setting aside 3-6 months of your household income is recommended.

  • Correct

  • ($1,000,000) In general, maintaining 10x your annual income in life insurance is a reasonable amount. Situations may vary and you should take into account debts that you would want or need to be paid in the event of your death, beyond that, how much of your income would need to be replaced and any other important considerations such as high school and college tuition.

  • Correct

  • (Over $40,000) The Rule of 72 is a simple way to determine how long an investment will take to double given a fixed rate of interest. In this case a $20,000 loan with a 10% interest rate with no payments would double in 7.2 years.

  • Correct

  • According to Investopedia, a 65 year-old couple retiring in 2019 can expect to spend $285,000 on healthcare and medical expenses throughout retirement (assuming retirement lasts to age 80).
