COWBOY POETRY BY H. FRED LIESE Fred Liese makes his home at the edge of Black Coulee near Turner, Montana. Raised on the Big Flat, he finds plenty of “inspiration” in the people and things around him every day, and Fred’s brand of entertainment has earned him a large following throughout the US and Canada.

His Day at the Bank Dusty opened up his plans And as he revealed the plot He eyed the ruthless banker And you know what he sought…

Until it was time for market Now with all the money earned He divvied up the profits The banking funds returned.

Financial plans were mixed with dreams, The structure of his venture, This rounded out his banking day Yes, it was adventure.

Then came the banker’s promise, Through the message Dusty seeded, The only thing required now... Collateral was needed.

An operation, he’d begin He let the numbers fly Through careful thought and plans galore No way would he deny.

The banker’s statement came to be It did avert a question Dusty heard the end result, “Here is the bank’s suggestion…

Hogs were what he planned to raise From “farrowed out” to finish Each careful step, he walked him through No way would it diminish.

“Your vision, it looks great to me The numbers suit me fine Go and talk to your old dad The note, he will co sign.”

And as he slid the numbers by The banker changed position He peered above his spectacles He heard this proposition.

Dusty came that afternoon “Here is the bank’s desire. Sign down on the bottom line That’s all I will require.”

The presentation came to be And Dusty was enlightened Reluctance he appeared to sense The banker’s belt did tighten. He led him through construction The barns at every phase He averaged out production He knew how many days…

Teach Your children Well: Basic Financial educaTion (ParT ii) The future is now Teenagers should be ready to focus on saving for larger goals (e.g., a new computer or a car) and longer-term goals (e.g., college, an apartment). And while bank accounts may still be the primary savings vehicles for them, you might also want to consider introducing your teenagers to the principles of investing. To do this, open investment accounts for them. (If they’re minors, these must be custodial accounts.) Look for accounts that can be opened with low initial contributions at institutions that supply educational materials about basic investment terms and concepts. Helping older children learn about topics such as risk tolerance, time horizons, market volatility, and asset diversification may predispose them to take charge of their financial future. should you give your child credit? If older children (especially those about to go off to college) are responsible, you may be thinking about getting them a credit card. However, credit card companies cannot issue cards to anyone under 21 unless they can show proof they can repay the debt themselves, or unless an adult cosigns the credit card agreement. If you decide to cosign, keep in mind that you’re taking on legal liability for the debt, and the debt will appear on your credit report. Also: • • • • •

Set limits on the card’s use Ask the credit card company for a low credit limit (e.g., $300) or a secured card to help children learn to manage credit without getting into serious debt Make sure children understand the grace period, fee structure, and how interest accrues on the unpaid balance Agree on how the bill will be paid, and what will happen if the bill goes unpaid Make sure children understand how long it takes to pay off a credit card balance if they only make minimum payments

If putting a credit card in your child’s hands is a scary thought, you may want to start off with a prepaid spending card. A prepaid spending card looks like a credit card, but functions more like a prepaid phone card. The card can be loaded with a predetermined amount that you specify, and generally may be used anywhere credit cards are accepted. Purchases are deducted from the card’s balance, and you can transfer more money to the card’s balance whenever necessary. Although there may be some fees associated with the card, no debt or interest charges accrue; children can only spend what’s loaded onto the card. One thing you might especially like about prepaid spending cards is that they allow children to gradually get the hang of using credit responsibly. Because you can access the account information online or over the phone, you can monitor the spending habits of your children. If need be, you can then sit down with them and discuss their spending behavior and money management skills.

Terms of Endearment! An elderly lady was invited to an old friend’s home for dinner one evening. She was impressed by the way her lady friend preceded every request to her husband with endearing terms such as: Honey, My Love, Darling, Sweetheart, etc. The couple had been married almost 70 years and, clearly, they were still very much in love. While the husband was in the living room, her lady friend leaned over to her hostess to say, ‘I think it’s wonderful that, after all these years, you still call your husband all those loving names.’ The elderly lady hung her head, ‘I have to tell you the truth,’ she said, ‘his name slipped my mind about 10 years ago, and I’m scared to death to ask the cranky old bugger what his name is.

Small Businesses...Keeping Montana Strong!

Just like “It takes a community to raise a child”, it takes small businesses to strengthen a community. Without loyal communityminded businesses, many Montana towns would be nothing more than a happy memory. These dedicated companies consistently provide jobs, industry, donations and volunteer services to the patrons who support them. They know that without a healthy economy in their town, their own companies will suffer, so they give back faithfully....When you see them be sure to say, “Thanks!”

Supporting the communities we work in...

Ramblings of a Conservative Cow Doctor

by Krayton Kerns, DVM, State Rep. HD 58

We hope you enjoy reading this feature in Tricia’s Trader. You may agree, you may disagree with Dr. Kerns’ Ramblings, but

you will always have something to discuss over dinner.

Now I understand, but will voters? “Cut the black-baldy steer out of the fat pen. He is finished,” are perfectly clear instructions to anyone raised a farm or ranch kid; for city folk, not so much. Every profession, including politics, has its own peculiar lexicon. On April 15th, after four sessions in Montana’s legislature, I discovered the true definition of a phrase I had misunderstood since I plunged into public service in 2006. The words “getting the money out of politics” did not mean what I thought it did and I feel sheepish discovering I had been wrong for so long. The debate on SB175 and SB375 perfectly focused the phrase I have heard so often. Here is the story. First some background. SB175 is the big education bill crafted by Senator Jones. As amended, it spends 50 million dollars, drawn mostly from oil and gas production taxes, and fully funds the dreaded national Common Core curriculum. Coupling SB175 with previous K-12 funding increases asks Montana taxpayers to cough up and additional $105 million over the biennium. Do the math; a family of four will be required to donate an additional $420 in taxes over two years from now through perpetuity, or until it is raised yet again. Government never shrinks. Most all Montana school boards and the education union screamed “it is for the children” and SB175 passed the House on a vote of 58 to 41. I voted with the minority. The second bill’s similarity to the first is apparent only after closer scrutiny. SB375, euphemistically labeled the “dark money bill,” was spun as legislation to clean up political campaigns by increasing transparency and getting the money out of politics. It did neither. This bill was purposely crafted by liberal Republican senators and Montana’s governor to make conservative Republicans an endangered species. Had it passed, progressive Democrats would have controlled Treasure State politics for the next 50 years regardless which party was the majority. Exactly as is happening in Montana’s House during these closing weeks of this 63rd session, 39 Democrats are joined by 19 liberal Republicans to crush the efforts of the 41 conservatives. Government is growing at pathological rates. SB375 squeezed out of the Senate by a parliamentary sleight of hand and was sent to the House Judiciary Committee

for an objective assessment. After much amending and debate, we tabled it. By a twist of fate, SB175 was discussed on the House floor the same day two liberal Republicans attempted to blast SB375 from the Judiciary Committee. Interestingly, but not atypical, the motion to spend education money on SB175 was supported by nearly the same group voting to remove political dark money in SB375. Because a blast motion requires a 3/5ths super majority, SB375 remains tabled in committee. It wasn’t until 4:30 the following day while on my morning run, did I make the connection regarding the relationship between these two votes. My epiphanies are rare, but this one was a dandy. Getting “the money out of politics” has nothing to do with diminishing fund raising in campaigns; it refers to spending—the faster elected officials can spend tax money the less there is. Supporters of SB175 and SB375 spent 48 million dollars out of politics with a simple push of the green button. So as we enter the final week of the 63rd session, 39 Democrats and 19 liberal Republicans have spent our budget into structural imbalance just like the big boys in Washington D.C. Bless their hearts. I wonder if the generation being saddled with this debt will blame politicians for overspending or blame school boards, superintendents, and education unions for throwing us under the bus if we did not get the money out of politics and into their general funds. The above financial imbalance does not consider this session’s final Medicaid expansion bill, HB623, which is projected to cost Montana taxpayers $152 million per year by 2021. With another push of the green button, the Montana Hospital Association and the Chamber of Commerce are asking that same family of four drop an extra $608 into the tax collection kettle so it too can be spent out of politics. With Montana’s budget projected to spend more than 9 billion dollars over the next two years, perhaps getting the money out of politics is not such a good idea after all.

Dear Dave, I’ve been on medical leave from my job due to an injury. My doctor recently advised extending the leave another six months, but during this time I wouldn’t be paid. My husband makes $75,000 a year, and we owe $40,000 on our cars. This includes a $30,000 note on one of them. Should we take money out of our 401(k) to make it through the additional time off? ~Crystal Dear Crystal, Absolutely not! You guys have dug a hole for yourselves, and borrowing from one place to fix another will only make that hole deeper. In cases like this you have to address the core issue. Your income has dropped significantly, so you need to cut your lifestyle to match your new income level. My advice would be to sell the cars, at least the $30,000 one. There’s no justification for $40,000 worth of vehicles in your garage when you’re living on $75,000. It makes me think you don’t have any savings, either, if you’re talking about raiding your 401(k). Financially speaking, you have no room to breathe right now. Serious situations call for serious actions. You’ve got to get your lifestyle down to a manageable level until you’re able to work again. And even then, there’s no reason to raise your lifestyle up to your income. Live on less than you make, Crystal. That’s what enables you to save money and be prepared when Murphy comes knocking on your door! ~Dave Dear Dave, I’m having trouble making my auto payment. I owe $20,000, and the car is worth $17,000. Should I allow the bank to repossess it, and could they take a lien against my house if they do? ~Jose Dear Jose, You bet they could slap a lien on your home. You never want to go through repossession if there’s any way to avoid that scenario. If they repossess, not only does your credit take a huge hit, you also lose control of the price of the car. After a repo, the lender will sell the car and sue you for the difference. But if you sell the car, you might be able to work out a higher price, leaving you a lesser amount you’d owe for the difference. Chances are if your loan is with General Motors, they won’t work with you on the $3,000 difference. In that situation, you can either negotiate with the bank or go to another bank or credit union and get a small loan for the difference. Just make sure you pay the loan off as quickly as possible. Keep in mind, too, that even if the car is worth $17,000, it won’t bring that much on the repo lot. More than likely it would sell for about $11,000, leaving you $9,000 in the hole. By giving up control, you’d create a much bigger financial mess. I wouldn’t do that. ~Dave For Sale: 14 piece Pier 1 Medici glass and metal table set, $500. 399-7150. 4-II Help Wanted: Full-Time qualified automotive or semi truck technician.
