Answer to Question 1

Employees were surveyed to determine their personal needs for financial planning. Respondents were asked to indicate their first choice of personal financial development interest from one of the following categories: retirement annuities, traditional and Roth IRA; mutual funds, Internet stock trading, and charitable giving. Returned surveys totaled 400 . More than half of those who responded indicated an interest in learning about retirement annuities and traditional and Roth IRA's. Employees ranked interest in learning about mutual funds third out of the five choices. Respondents showed little interest in learning and Internet stock trading (13 percent) and even less interest in learning about charitable giving (9 percent)

The results of this survey indicate that of the total number of employees surveyed, 400 have a personal development need for learning about financial planning. For these employees, financial training should focus on retirement annuities and IRA's. The training should also include information on mutual funds, but only a few employees are interested in information on Internet stock trading and charitable giving.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
