Road trips are a staple of
autumn for many
motorists. Fall foliage
and moderate temperatures
make the months of September
and October ideal months to
hit the open road for weekend
getaways.
Fall road trips rarely take
drivers too far away from home,
but traveling can still be costly.
Fortunately, there are many
ways to make road trips more
affordable without sacrificing
fun.
Explore alternatives to
more traditional lodging. If
your road trip includes an
overnight stay, consider alter-
natives to traditional lodging.
Hotels might stretch your
budget, but depending on
where you plan to go, you
might have some less tradition-
al alternatives. Airbnb.com
allows homeowners and even
some apartment dwellers to
rent their homes and apart-
ments to travelers, and these
listings may pale in comparison
to rates offered by nearby
hotels. If weather permits, look
for local campsites and spend
your nights sleeping outdoors
under the autumn stars. If you
prefer hotels, look for deals on
sites like Priceline.com or
Hotwire.com, which may offer
heavy discounts on rooms.
Take steps to conserve
fuel. Lodging might prove your
biggest expense on a fall road
trip, but fuel likely won’t be too
far behind. Drivers can cut fuel
costs in several ways. Before
beginning your trip, take your
car in for a tune-up so any

Category I: Some peo-
ple believe that writ-
ten in some big book
somewhere, all Americans are
entitled to a retirement free of
financial stress and worry.
There are no prerequisites, laws
or rules listed in their financial
planning bible that ensure this
stress-free retirement, like liv-
ing below one’s means for
decades to generate and invest
the funds necessary to become
financially independent, or the
requirement to secure an edu-
cation in financial manage-
ment. No, these folks are either
hoping that manna from heav-
en will fall from the sky, specif-
ically on their roof. They bask
in the power of the voting
booth, voting for the systemat-
ic destruction of the wealthy,those who made sacrifices and
took the risks to attain and
retain their wealth, by taxing
them into oblivion under the
rouse of “paying their fair
share.” It doesn’t matter to
Category I people that there
are not enough rich people to
tax to fulfill this objective,
even if the tax rate were 100
percent of everything they pos-
sess!
Category II: Other people just
plain ignore the facts and
responsibility for proper finan-
cial management up to and
during their own retirement. If
they don’t think about it,
either it will just take care of
itself or they’ll worry about it
when they get there, thinking
the government will bail themout and provide for them.
Category III: These folks are
waiting for, and depending on,
an inheritance to secure their
financial future.
Category IV: This employee
was terminated for lack of out-
put, a bad attitude and extreme
habitual tardiness. He was writ-
ten-up for these offensives mul-
tiple times before being termi-
nated. He immediately showed
up at the unemployment office
to file his claim, which was
summarily denied as he was
fired for cause with proof, as
evidenced by his own signature
accepting responsibility from
his quarterly reviews. One
week later he appealed the
decision and was immediately
reimbursed for the previous
week and given benefits for 99
weeks. Amazingly, he just got a
job at the exact moment his 99weeks of unemployment
checks were about to cease. He
is probably also a Category I
individual at the same time.
Category V: There is another
class of people who are practic-
ing the techniques, fundamen-
tals and strategies of wealth
accumulation for a successful
financial future. They have
learned what to do and practice
it every paycheck and more.
They consistently engage in
self-talk, debating wants vs.
needs. They spend less to save
and invest more. They are
focused on winning the money
game and the game of life, of
which we are all participants.
These people are task-driven
and will at the very least give it
their best shot — always! If there isn’t enough from their
primary paycheck to save and
invest adequately, these people
will secure a second paycheck
from a part-time job or with
the help of a spouse or a part-
ner.
Which of the five cate-
gories best describes you?
Which of the five categories
would you most like to resem-
ble? This should be a rhetorical
question, but shamefully, it is
not.
I used to believe that most
people agreed the job should be
given to the best person, not
given to a lesser qualified can-
didate because of race, color,
creed or gender. I used to
believe that most people were
embarrassed to collect benefits
from the government, whether
it was unemployment, food
stamps, disability, housing, edu-cation, medical or any other
form of assistance. I used to
believe that the majority of
people would wish, hope and
pray for an opportunity, not a
handout. I used to believe that
America was the land of great
opportunity, where one could
stake his claim and claim his
stake.
I used to believe that our
great nation had no end in
sight. I used to believe that if I
earned my financial independ-
ence, it was mine and mine
alone. I used to believe that
America was the land of the
free and home of the brave
with outstretched arms for all
those willing to work and fight
for the opportunity to be a suc-
cess, and who had a responsibleparty to sponsor them in case of
sub-par results.
I used to believe that
Americans were the biggest
givers and donors to charity,
not recipients of charity. I used
to believe that America was
the land of opportunity, not the
land of entitlement. I used to
believe that America was the
most feared and respected
nation on the planet, for if any
nation were to compromise the
sanctity of another, we would
use the threat of our great mili-
tary might, along with our eco-
nomic prowess, to assuage the
aggressor into submission.
I used to be a very proud
American citizen, but lately my
pride has been tarnished by
both the actions and inactions
of our government. I used to
believe it was an honor to be a
politician, representing andvoting on behalf of your con-
stituents’ ideas and ideals, not
to vote yourself a pay raise and
a superior health plan over the
people you serve.
I used to believe in a
bright, idyllic future for my
children, not marred by pover-
ty, violence and crime — one
where they could strive to be
financially independent; yet
upon closer examination I find
that my generation was the last
generation to have greater
opportunities than their par-
ents. I used to believe that all
great innovations and inven-
tions were first theorized then
produced here in America, but
those days are now merely a
memory.
I used to believe in a fed-
eral government balance sheet
with debits, credits and
accountability, but a $18.5 tril-
lion deficit has made general
accounting principles impossi-
ble to follow now. I used to
believe in a day’s labor for a
day’s pay and that charitable
organizations were created to
help charity needing recipi-
ents, not the federal or state
governments. I used to believe
that the government would
incentivize businesses to create
jobs and not become the largest
employer in NJ and in the
USA!
I used to believe that a
dollar and a dream meant start-
ing a business for yourself, not
the illusion of winning the lot-
tery. I used to believe that if I
were sick, I could choose my
own doctor and hospital, paid
for by my own health insuranceplan that I paid for by my
choice. I used to believe that
Air Force One was for the
President’s use, not for the first
Lady, without him, to travel
across the world spending $10
million on vacations and dress-
es, especially when there are
Americans who are starving
and out of work.
I used to believe — and
still do — that we can improve
and repair our country’s ail-
ments before it’s too late. I used
to believe — and still do —
that individuals can become
financially independent and
afford to retire with great
promise. I used to believe —
and still do — that together we
can overcome our partisan dif-
ferences for the greater good,firstly by gaining some fiscal
responsibility in Washington,
reducing then eliminating the
deficit without increasing
taxes. I believe that my chil-
dren together with yours can
make America great again,
where our flag will regain the
prestige and pride it once had,
making Americans the envy of
the world.
Please be a Category V
individual and family, leading
the cause that retirement is not
an entitlement. It is a goal
requiring sacrifices and work
that each of us must accom-
plish for ourselves!

According to the U.S.
Department of
Health and Human
Services, nearly 70% of peo-
ple turning age 65 will requirelong-term care, such as assis-
tance with basic personal
activities during their life-
times. With costs of this care
ranging from $6,000 to
$10,000 a month or more,
planning to address that risk is
a smart move.
One solution is long-
term care insurance. A policy
can protect your estate againstthe impact of extended med-
ical or rehabilitation services.
However, the cost of insur-
ance may have you consider-
ing “taking your chances” and
letting Medicare or Medicaid
step in once your resources are
depleted. But what happens
when either you or your
spouse requires nursing home
care while the other is healthyand living independently?
Purchasing long-term
care insurance has drawbacks.
For one, if you never need
long-term care, the premiums
you paid are wasted. You may
be able to mitigate this some-
what by choosing a flexible
policy with life insurance ben-
efits.
Another drawback: Youface the risk that the insur-
ance company you select will
go out of business. Choosing
an insurer that is highly rated
for financial strength can ease
your mind.
On the plus side, long-
term care insurance offers tax
benefits. When you itemize,
all or part of the premium for
qualified plans are deductibleas health care costs.
Depending on the type of pol-
icy you buy, benefits paid are
generally not considered tax-
able income.
If you think long-term
care insurance is right for you,
remember that coverage costs
less when you’re younger.
Premiums are based on your
age and health, and tend to
increase past age 60. Another
cost-saving move to consider
is a “shared-care” policy with
a combined pool of coverage
that you and your spouse
share.
Contact our office before
making the final decision to
buy long-term care insurance.
We’ll help you do a cost-ben-
efit analysis.

According to the
American Society
for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals,
indoor cats rarely need baths.
That’s because indoor cats
use their tongues and teeth
to stay relatively clean.
While cats can benefit from
routine brushing, which can
reduce shedding and cut
back on hairballs, the bath
tub is a place cats need not
visit regularly.
But sometimes cats find
themselves in sticky situa-
tions that dirty their coats
and give them a less than
agreeable odor. In such
instances, a bath may be the
only way to clean up your
cat. Cat owners concerned
about bathing cats can con-
sider the following tips, cour-
tesy of the ASPCA.
Trim the claws. Cats are
unlikely to find a bathtub
comfortable, so cat owners
should expect them to resist.
Owners can protect them-
selves from such resistance
by trimming their cat’s claws
prior to bath time.
Brush your cat’s hair.
Matted hair can be a nui-
sance come bath time, and
that can translate into a
lengthier bath that will try
the patience of cat and
owner alike. Just before bath
time, brush your cat’s hair to
loosen any matted areas.
Once hair has been brushed,
gently insert some cotton
into your cat’s ears to prevent
water from getting inside
them.
Choose the right time.
Mellow or tired cats are less
likely to resist a bath than
well-rested cats with lots of
energy, so choose a time of
day when your cat is typical-
ly mellow to give the animal
its bath. Allow the cat to
play with some toys prior to
bath time so he or she grows
a little tired.
Use a bath mat. Cats
likely won’t be comfortable
in the tub or sink, and that
comfort level is only further
compromised if they are slip-
ping around. Use a bath mat
so your cat is not slipping
and sliding.
Use lukewarm water.
When bathing your cat, use
only lukewarm water. Get
your frisky friend wet in
three to four inches of water
before gently massaging a
solution that is one part cat
shampoo and five parts water
into his or her hair. Massage
in the direction of the hair

growth and do not use
human shampoo, which can
dry out cats’ skin. When the
time comes to rinse the soap,
once again gently use luke-
warm water, taking caution
to avoid getting soap and
water into your cat’s eyes,
ears and nose. Make sure
there is no remaining sham-
poo residue, which can irri-
tate the skin and attract
more dirt.
Dry your cat off. Long-
hair cats may need their fur
to be untangled with wide-
toothed combs. Short-hairs
can be dried in a warm place
with a large towel wrapped
around their bodies. Some
cats may be comfortable if
you use a hair dryer set on
the lowest heat setting to dry
them off, but don’t push it if
your cat is not responding
well to the hair dryer.

School is not always easy,
and some students strug-
gle as they transition
from grade to grade. As stu-
dents get older, some who may
have experienced smooth sail-
ing as youngsters may find they
need some extra help grasping
the material as coursework
becomes more complicated.
Those who need some
extra clarification and rein-
forcement may first turn to
their parents. But parents may
not be familiar with certain
subjects or capable of explain-
ing certain concepts in terms
kids can understand. In such
situations, tutors can prove to
be valuable resources to get
kids back on the right academ-
ic track.
One-on-one attention
from a tutor can benefit all
types of learners. Students who
discover newfound success
under the guidance of a tutor
may have more self-confidence
in the classroom. Parents won-
dering if a tutor can help their
children may want to considerthe following indicators that
students may need tutors.
Consistently falling grades:
Tutors may be necessary for
students whose grades are
gradually on the decline. First
speak with your child’s teach-
ers, who may recommend
tutors that specialize in cer-
tain subjects.
Confusion in and out of the
classroom: Some kids struggle
to grasp certain concepts, and
such confusion can sometimes
be remedied with the kind of
intense study available in
tutoring sessions.
Low confidence: Some kids’
confidence wanes when their
grades suffer. Kids whose gradeshave been on the decline may
feel a sense of defeat even
before they take a test or work
on an assignment. Tutors can
help restore confidence by cre-
ating small victories that slow-
ly build up to larger successes.
Indifference to coursework:
No student will be captivated
by every subject he or she stud-
ies, but there should be some
subjects that students find
engaging. Students battling
indifference toward their
coursework may benefit from a
dynamic tutor who can present
subject matter in new ways and
revive students’ interest.
Students who are strug-
gling in the classroom mayneed some extra help outside
the classroom, and many tutors
are adept at reviving interest in
subjects kids are studying
at school. Some teachers may
recommend certain tutors,
while others may do some
tutoring work themselves.

Clean eating is a grow-ing trend among peo-
ple focused on health
and wellness. A relatively sim-
ple concept of selecting foods
that are minimally processed,
clean eating intends to instill a
greater understanding of the
pathway between a food’s ori-
gins and the final products
that end up on grocery store
shelves and dinner tables.
Choosing whole or “real”foods that are as close to their
natural forms as possible is a
staple of clean eating. The
availability of convenience
food products has never been
greater, and not all packaged
foods are unhealthy. But clean
eating encourages consumers
to be more aware of the ingre-
dients in the foods they eatwhile selecting those foods
that are minimally processed.
Many foods designated as
“clean,” including vegetables
and fruits, whole grains, free-
range meats, low-fat dairy
products, unsalted nuts, and
whole seeds, are straight from
the farm.
Another component of
clean eating is eliminating or
greatly reducing the consump-tion of refined sugar. Many
health experts advise that
refined sugar is a large con-
tributor to unnecessary calo-
ries. Many people can get all
the energy they need by con-
suming foods with natural
sugars.
If an ingredient list
includes names you cannotrecognize or if the natural
form of the food has been
changed (i.e. removing the
bran from whole grains), it
cannot be included in a clean-
eating plan. Also, foods that
have a lot of additives, includ-
ing salt, sugar and fat, are not
classified as clean.
Jessica Fanzo, assistant
professor of nutrition at
Columbia University, advisesthat not all food processing is
bad. Processing is sometimes
necessary to prevent
pathogens that can lead to ill-
ness. For example, pasteuriz-
ing milk is a processing
method, but one that is neces-
sary to stop the proliferation
of bacteria. Even steaming
foods is processing in someform, but it is not on par with
some of the overly processed
foods available.
The benefits to clean eat-
ing are numerous. Increasing
intake of fruits and vegetables
can boost your immune system
and serve as a nutritious way
to maintain a healthy weight.
Clean eating may help you
become more conscious of
everything from meal ingredi-ents to portion sizes.
Those interested in clean
eating can begin slowly. Start
to introduce more fresh fruits,
vegetables, legumes, nuts, and
farm-fresh foods into your diet.
Look for foods in their natural
form, such as whole oats and
other grains. Avoid highly
refined ingredients and limitsugar and salt intake. Opt for
fresh herbs and spices to sea-
son food. Over time you can
make other changes.
Adopting a clean-eating
approach to their diet is a
great way for men and womento start living healthy
lifestyles. Speak with a doctor
or nutritionist about healthy
and effective ways to transi-
tion to clean eating

“Transforming Lives By Transforming Living Spaces... It’s What We Do”
A Tradition of Delivering Value For Over 20 Years
Drivers who travel between the United States
and Canada or plan on renting a car for an
international business trip or vacation should
understand that driving rules vary from coun-
try to country. One noticeable difference is
the side of the road vehicles travel on, as well
as the measurement system used for calcu-
lating speed and distance. Although
speedometers will often feature both mph
(miles per hour) and kph (kilometers perhour), it helps to have a rough idea of the
conversion between the two speed measurements. Every mile per hour in speed trans-
lates to roughly 1.7 kilometers per hour. Therefore, if the posted speed limit is 55 mph in
the United States, expect to travel at 88.5 kph in Canada. Always heed speed limit post-
ings and regularly check your vehicle’s speedometer to ensure you are driving at or below
the legal limit. Traffic offenses that might be tolerated in one country may not be toler-
ated across the border, so always obey the local laws when behind the wheel.

Leaves cascading down
from trees indicate the
arrival of autumn.
However, colorful and awe-
inspiring autumn leaves can
be a hazard if left to lie on
the ground too long.
Fallen leaves form a
dense insulator to protect
trees’ roots and prevent com-
peting plants from growing.
Decomposing leaves also
provide nutrients for thetree. But wet leaves can be a
safety hazard and leaves left
on the lawn through the
winter can pose a threat to
the grass. These are just a
couple of reasons why so
much effort is placed on leaf
clean-up in the fall. The fol-
lowing are some creative
ways to recycle leaves
that fall from your trees in
the weeks to come.
Mulch: Shredded leaves can
make for a great amendment
to fertilizer for garden beds
and even the lawn. Leaves
lying on the grass can be
mulched into small pieces
with a mulching mower so
they don’t choke the blades
of grass. Leaves also can be
broken down with a string
trimmer, a leaf blower that
has a vacuum function or a
commercial shredder/chip-
per. Add the shredded leaves
to a compost pile or use them
to fill container plants before
adding regular potting soil.
Insulation: Collect leaves to
mound over delicate peren-
nial plants and shrubs. Theleaves will add more warmth
to the soil and may help
plants make it through harsh
winters. Just remove the
leaves slowly when spring
arrives so that the soil under-
neath can get the sunlight
and water it needs to thrive.
Leave some leaves in the
yard so that animals can use
them as nesting material and
line their dens for the winter.
Stuffing: Create whimsical
scarecrows as part of your
autumn decoration scheme.
Gather older clothes that
you no longer use and stuff
the sleeves of shirts and the
legs of pants with leaves,
which are less expensive and
easier to come by than straw.

Selling a home can be
exciting. Homeowners
who made considerable
financial commitments when
buying their homes may be
anxious when the time comes
to get returns on their invest-
ments, but selling a home need
not be so nerve-racking.
Buyers’ tastes often dic-
tate their interest in a home.
For example, no matter how
immaculate homeowners maykeep their colonials, such
homes won’t appeal much to
buyers looking for a traditional
Cape Cod cottage-style home.
But while you might not be
able to change your home’s
architecture to appeal to the
masses, there are steps you can
take to make your home more
appealing to buyers whose
dream home more closely
resembles your own.
Address curb appeal.
Curb appeal goes a long way
toward creating a lasting first
impression, so homeowners
can start by driving up to their
homes and looking at them
through the eyes of prospective
buyers. Address the landscape
if it needs some TLC, and
power wash siding if it’s appear-ing a little dirty. Examine your
driveway for cracks and consid-
er installing a new surface if the
existing one is more of an eye-
sore than eye-catching. Finally,
clear the yard of toys and tools
before nailing the “For Sale”
sign into the ground, as a clut-
tered yard will give buyers the
impression that you did not pri-
oritize keeping a clean and pre-
sentable home.
Clear out the clutter.
Some sellers stage their homes
when putting them up for sale.
But staging might not be an
option for sellers who are still
living in their homes and
intend to do so until they find
buyers. If you can’t stage your
home, then do your best to
remove clutter, including extrapieces of furniture you might
have accumulated over the
years that can make rooms
seem smaller. Box up any books
that no longer fit on book-
shelves, and try to keep com-
mon areas like family rooms,
hallways and kids’ playrooms as
open and clean as possible so
the rooms appear roomy and
relaxing.
Let the light shine in.
Dark homes are less appealing
to prospective buyers, many of
whom have no interest in liv-
ing in caves that are void of
natural sunlight. When show-
ing your home, make sure all of
the curtains are drawn and the
blinds or shades are up. If trees
or shrubs outside windows are
blocking natural light from get-ting inside, consider trimming
them so your home appears
sunnier and more inviting.
Bright homes tend to feel more
spacious, so fix any light fix-
tures that need fixing and even
add small lamps in rooms that
could use some extra light.
Tackle that to-do list. It’s
easy for a home’s resi-
dents to grow accus-
tomed to certain minor
problems, such as a
doorknob that always
sticks or a creaky
kitchen cabinet door.
But buyers might be
turned off by too many
of these minor prob-
lems and wonder if any
larger and more expen-
sive issues also wentignored. Before show-
ing your home, address
all those minor repairs
on your to-do list.
Selling a home
can be exciting, and
homeowners can take
steps to make sure their
home sale is successful and
lucrative as well.

Use a few pieces of straw
around the neck and hand
areas of the scarecrow for visu-
al effect. Tie off with twine and
display your scarecrow.
Bedding: Chicken owners
can use fallen leaves as bed-
ding in their chicken coops.
Dry leaves also may create
more comfortable and drier
conditions for goats and
other livestock. Goats may
look to recently fallen leaves
as a nutritious food source.
Gather the leaves and let the
goats munch before you fur-ther rake and compost the
leaves.
Decorations: Natural leaves
can be used as decorations
both inside and outside a
home. String freshly fallen
leaves together and wrap
them around a grapevine
wreath for a rustic door dec-
oration. Leaves can be
placed in clear vases and put
on display for a cheap way to
showcase some autumn
color. Preserve favorite
leaves with a lamination
machine or by sealing them
between heated sheets of
waxed paper. Cut out the leaf
shapes and use for hanging
window decorations.
Recreation: Leaves have
long been favorite toys
for children, who eagerly
await jumping into large
piles of fallen leaves. Fillpaper bags with leaves and
draw a target on the front.
Let kids test their skill aim-
ing for the targets. Children
can camouflage their cloth-
ing with leaves and masking
tape and have a more intense
session of “hide and seek.”
issues that might affect fuel effi-
ciency are addressed before you
hit the open road. Poorly
inflated tires force the engine
to work harder and burn more
fuel, so make sure tire pressure
matches the levels recom-
mended in your owner’s manu-
al before embarking on your
trip and even along the way if
you feel your car is not running
as smoothly as it could be.
Another way to conserve fuel is
to remove excess items from
the trunk. If you don’t plan to
hit the links on your trip, leave
your golf clubs at home.Plot your route. Spon-
taneity may make fall road
trips more fun, but drivers
looking to save money should
plot their routes in advance so
they can avoid potentially
costly problems like detours
or road work that can waste
fuel and lead to hours sitting
in traffic. Use a GPS device
during your trip so you can be
alerted to any unexpected
developments that might cost
you time and money. Plotting
your route in advance also
allows you to find affordable
dining and lodging options
and choose roads that don’t
require drivers to pay tolls.
Invite some friends and
family along. Inviting friendsand family on a weekend get-
away can make the trip more
fun and more affordable. If you
have room in the car, inviting
friends along allows you to split
fuel costs, and you may even
save on lodging if you find a
hotel that won’t charge for
extra guests in the room.
Friends and family also can
help split the cost of supplies.
Bring your own food.
Food is another big expense
road trippers must account for.
But you can save money on
food by bringing your own
meals along on the trip.
Prepare some sandwiches the
morning that you leave and
keep them fresh in a cooler so
you don’t have to pay for
lunch. In addition, pack some
snacks so you and your passen-
gers can quickly and afford-
ably quell any hunger pangs
that arise while you’re on
the road. If you plan to stay ina place with its own kitchen,
cook your own dinners so you
don’t have to spend money
dining out.
Road trips are a staple of
autumn, when drivers can still
enjoy the open road without
