Individual Retirement Accounts
An Individual Retirement Account (IRA) should be the central building block
of any financial portfolio. When you invest in a Heartland Area Federal Credit
Union IRA, you can be sure your money will be there when you need it...
because they're insured investments which are built to last. Unlike stocks or
mutual funds, all Heartland Area Federal Credit Union's IRA accounts are
separately insured up to $250,000 by NCUA, an agency of the federal
government. This means your money (both the dividend and the principal)
will always be there for you.

Coverdell Education) IRA plans. For each of these you may choose either:
