Woman: As a purely financial matter, it’s hard to die at just right time. Pop-off unexpectedly young and you could rob off your families of paycheques it was counting on. Hang on too long and you could exhaust your saving improvise your family or send yourself to a feeble retirement home. One unexpected side effect of the recent financial crisis: a boom in sales of fixed immediate annuities, which dispense guaranteed income for life. Sales at New York Life, the largest issuer, hit $425 million in the first quarter this year, up 82% from last year.

Man: As hurricane season approaches, electric utilities are banding together to use a new communications system designed to help them respond more quickly to customers who lose power. The collaborative effort is an attempt to solve one of the biggest problems utilities face after a disaster: jammed phone lines that leave customers with recorded messages or busy signals. The initiative takes advantage of communications systems developed by closely held Twenty First Century Communications Inc. of Columbus. Many states require utilities to have the capability to answer calls within 60 seconds, and they can face stiff penalties if they fail to do so in large numbers.

Woman: Junk food ads account for two-thirds of televised advertisements for food that are shown when children are likely to be watching, based on an obesity study of eleven countries.
Germany and the U.S. lead the way at 90 per cent, with the U.K. and Australia the lowest at fifty percent, the researchers said, urging governments to limit such marketing in order to combat obesity.

Man: Back when they were feeling flush, many well-off people made gifts of cash or stock to their adult children without much hesitation. Now some are reluctant to give, worried that they won’t have enough left for their own retirement or that their children may become too dependent on handouts. "It’s one thing to go out to dinner or go on vacation together and always pick up the tab, but it’s another to give them money to live on" is how one client explained it recently to New York City Certified Public Accountant Stuart Kessler. Fortunately, there’s a fine alternative to cutting the children off cold turkey: lend them the cash. Kessler’s clients have made loans to children this year to start a business, buy a new car and pay income taxes.

Woman: MERLE HAZARD, an unusually satirical country and western crooner, has captured monetary confusion better than anyone else. "Inflation or deflations," he warbles, "tell me if you can: will we become Zimbabwe or will we be Japan?" On May 4th Paul Krugman, a Nobel laureate in economics, gave warning that Japan-style deflation loomed, even as Allan Meltzer, an eminent Fed historian, foresaw a repeat of 1970s inflation — both on the same page of the New York Times. There is something to both fears. But inflation is distant and containable, while deflation is at hand and destructive.
