Using a lot of oil and squealing brake

I have a CM400T, pretty sure it´s an 82´ and it uses quite a bit of oil, about a quart every month. I was told that changing the piston rings would solve the problem. Any other advice out there? And the front brakes also squeal pretty bad, still have great stopping power but it´s very annoying and uncool when I roll into a public area. I was told that I need to get a new disc for that, but i´m hoping there´s a cheaper solution.
