R 071804Z JAN 11 ALCOAST 008/11 COMDTNOTE 1740 SUBJ: MILITARYSAVES 2011 CAMPAIGN 1. MILITARYSAVES IS A SOCIAL MARKETING CAMPAIGN TO PERSUADE, MOTIVATE, AND ENCOURAGE MILITARY PERSONNEL AND THEIR FAMILIES TO SAVE MONEY EVERY MONTH, AND TO CONVINCE LEADERS AND ORGANIZATIONS TO BE AGGRESSIVE IN PROMOTING AUTOMATIC SAVINGS. IT WAS WAS DEVELOPED AND TESTED BY ITS NON-PROFIT SPONSOR, CONSUMER FEDERATION OF AMERICA, AND DOD, FROM 2003 TO 2006 AND LAUNCHED THROUGHOUT DOD IN 2007. WHILE IT IS AN ONGOING CAMPAIGN, THE MILITARY COMMUNITY FOCUSES ON FINANCIAL READINESS DURING MILITARY SAVES WEEK. FOR 2011 THAT WEEK IS 20-27 FEBRUARY. WE ENCOURAGE ALL COAST GUARD (CG) COMMANDS AND CG PERSONNEL TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS CAMPAIGN. 2. AS A FIRST STEP, GO TO WWW.MILITARYSAVES.ORG AND TAKE THE PLEDGE TO SAVE REGULARLY. THIS SEEMINGLY SIMPLE GESTURE CAN HAVE A POWERFUL IMPACT IN SOLIDIFYING YOUR BEST INTENTIONS TO PREPARE FOR YOUR FUTURE. 3. SINCE POOR FINANCIAL READINESS AFFECTS MISSION EXECUTION, IT IS ALSO A COMMAND ISSUE. ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT WITH THE ECONOMIC CHALLENGES OF TODAY, A SOUND SAVINGS INITIATIVE IS CRITICAL TO HELPING OUR SHIPMATES ACHIEVE FINANCIAL FITNESS. MILITARY SAVES WEEK PRESENTS AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY TO ENCOURAGE, MOTIVATE, AND EDUCATE ALL PERSONNEL TO INCREASE PERSONAL SAVINGS, DECREASE DEBT, AND DEVELOP FINANCIAL FITNESS HABITS THAT LEAD TO IMPROVED PERSONAL FINANCIAL STABILITY AND ULTIMATELY TO MISSION READINESS. 4. COMMANDING OFFICERS AND LEADERS AT ALL LEVELS CAN ALSO SUPPORT THEIR PERSONNEL AND THEIR FAMILIES BY FOSTERING A CULTURE THAT ENCOURAGES ALL TO SAVE, BUILD WEALTH, AND AVOID THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL OF DEBT WHICH CAUSES FINANCIAL DISTRESS. DELIBERATE ACTIONS BY COMMANDS CAN HELP CREATE AN ATMOSPHERE WHERE SHIPMATES ARE COMFORTABLE DISCUSSING FINANCIAL ISSUES EARLY WITH THEIR CHAIN OF COMMAND. THIS WILL ALSO INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD THAT THEY WILL BE MORE WILLING TO SEEK REFERRAL TO AN APPROPRIATE RESOURCE FOR ASSISTANCE. 5. YOUNGER PEOPLE OFTEN SAY THEY JUST DO NOT MAKE ENOUGH MONEY TO SAVE MONEY RIGHT NOW. THE REALITY IS THAT SAVING MONEY TODAY WILL HAVE THE GREATEST EFFECT ON YOUR NET WORTH IN THE FUTURE. TIME, NOT MONEY IS YOUR GREATEST ASSET. EVEN SMALL AMOUNTS OF MONEY SAVED PERIODICALLY OVER TIME STARTING NOW WILL PRODUCE VAST AMOUNTS OF MONEY FOR YOU IN THE FUTURE. THE REASON FOR THIS IS COMPOUND INTEREST, WHERE MONEY IS EARNED ON THE PRINCIPAL AND THE INTEREST THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY EARNED. THIS WILL ALLOW YOUR MONEY TO DOUBLE OR TRIPLE OVER TIME. FOR EXAMPLE, SEAMAN HARDCHARGER PUTS AWAY 2000 DOLLARS A YEAR STARTING AT AGE 22. SEAMAN LAIDBACK DECIDES TO WAIT SIX YEARS BEFORE HE STARTS SAVING. HARDCHARGER STOPS HIS SAVINGS AFTER 6 YEARS AND HAS SAVED A TOTAL OF 12,000 DOLLARS WHILE LAIDBACK IS JUST GETTING STARTED. BOTH WIND UP WITH THE SAME AMOUNT AT AGE 65, ABOUT 1,235,350 DOLLARS. EACH OF THEM EARNED 12 PERCENT BUT LAIDBACK HAD TO SAVE 74,000 DOLLARS INSTEAD OF THE 12,000 DOLLARS HARDCHARGER SAVED. THE KEY POINT HERE IS THAT IT IS IMPORTANT TO START SAVING EARLY INSTEAD OF WAITING. YOU CAN DO THIS BY OPENING A THRIFT SAVINGS PLAN (TSP) ACCOUNT RIGHT NOW AND START SAVING 5 OR 10 PERCENT. IF YOU ALREADY HAVE AN ACCOUNT, CONSIDER RAISING THE CONTRIBUTION. 6. USEFUL RESOURCES RELATED TO MILITARYSAVES 2011, EDUCATION ON SAVINGS, AND DEBT MANAGMENT INCLUDE: A.

Mystuffnow is an online radio station broadcasting twenty four hours daily. This station can be bet described as a hybrid format of adult contemporary, international and ad popular music. In a sense it may, be compared to compared random radio format, but mystuffnow has three dedicated day parts. These day parts include a morning, evening and overnight separate music selection. The morning and afternoon have a selection of classic rock and current hot hits. To make the station more unique a new track, or tracks from the overnight day part have been added to make the station stand out from traditional stations that broadcast locally. The overnight day part is called “After Hours” and mimics the general principals of a quiet storm programming style where as there are fewer commercials and the music is more adult in nature, not just in lyrics but the music is more unique, offering international and slower tracks. This is meant for relaxation or whatever you may be doing in the late night hours.
This station is run by computerized traffic software. At any moment a live deejay can broadcast and a morning show or news programming is possible, all playlists are run automatically. One positive of this is the fact that the software ensures that all artists get paid their royalties and this station avoids any fines for digital media issues.
Update: Mystuffnow is currently off the air.
