the question: My boyfriend and I are buying property together, how should we hold title?
the answer: In that you are not married you can choose between Tenants in Common and Joint Tenants with Right of Survivorship. Tenants in Common is where the two of you have an equal and undivided ownership interest in the property. If one of you should pass away the deceased party’s interest in the property would pass through their estate to their heirs. Joint Tenants with Right of Survivorship is where the two of you have an equal and undivided ownership interest in the property, but if one of you should pass away the survivor of the two then becomes the immediate owner of the entire property. This process is instant and passes outside the estate process and requires no further action by the surviving party. Remember these are broad explanations and you should see a North Carolina Real Estate Attorney to make the decision that is best for your situation.

Make the most of your kitchen time baked taste from the microwave, providing evenly cooked meals in just minutes, minimizing burnt edges and eliminating the need for a stir step. Quick dinner and dessert ideas can be found at www.MarieCallendersMeals.com. Stock Up Your fridge and pantry are like a food library. Be sure you always have your goto ingredients on hand. When you begin to run low on staples like milk, eggs, onions, flour and sugar, immediately add the items to your shopping list so you never run out. A surprise need for a trip to the convenience store is anything but convenient. (StatePoint) Meals give you an opportunity to enjoy what you love – time with your family, friends and the chance to relish a well-made dish. Unfortunately, meals can often feel hurried, especially when you’re juggling daily work responsibilities and household tasks. Any shortcuts you can take in the kitchen will allow you time to do the things you love the most. Here are some time-saving tips that will help you slow down and savor every meal of the week: Stay Organized You’ve probably heard the old saying, “a place for everything and everything in its place.” Make this your kitchen mantra. Searching endlessly for needed utensils while you’re in the throes of meal preparation will take a major bite out of your evening. Use tools like alphabetized
spice racks and drawer organizers to help you keep your most used items handy and easily found. Go Oven-Free It’s possible to get the taste of an ovenbaked meal without the oven or the hassle. For those busy times where you find yourself running between sports practices and book clubs, keep a quick, wholesome family size meal in your freezer that serves as a complete meal – lunch, dinner or any time. There's a whole new line of meals called Comfort Bakes, including Baked Mac & Cheese and Savory Chicken & Rice Bake, that are made with special attention to detail and quality ingredients –– like real cheddar cheese and white meat chicken. With these dishes you can expect oven-
Plug in to Slow Down Create enjoyable ways to slow down during meal time. Dinner time is often the first chance many of us get to catch our breath during the day, so it can be an ideal time to connect with loved ones. Learn the ropes of video conferencing and nurture your most meaningful relationships by setting up a video conference at your kitchen table and hosting a dinner date each week. With today’s technology, video conferencing easily allows you to have a “virtual dinner date” with friends and family across the country, or even the world. Meal time is about more than eating. It’s about the pleasure and comfort of a good, sit-down meal. By streamlining your efforts in the kitchen, you can give yourself more time to sit back and enjoy what you’ve prepared.

Male? Over 40? Ask your doc... (StatePoint) Annual physicals may not be at the top of every man’s to-do list, but these visits are crucial for longevity -- especially for those men over 40. There’s no better time than your check-up to have all your looming health questions answered. Make the most of your next visit by composing a checklist of things you’d like to talk about during your appointment. No matter how healthy you feel, there are some discussion points you’ll definitely want to cover: Prostate Cancer Screening Prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer in America, affecting one in six men, according to the Prostate Cancer Foundation. If you’re a man over 40, there are several major risk factors that you need to know about. If you are African-American, or have a family history of prostate cancer, talk to your doctor about your prostate health, beginning at age 40. The older you are, the more likely you are to
be diagnosed with this potentially life-threatening illness, but that doesn’t mean younger men are not also diagnosed. In fact, one in every 38 men aged 40 to 59 is diagnosed with prostate cancer. Talk to your doctor about when you should begin screenings and how you can lower your risk of diagnosis. Be proactive! Visit the Prostate Cancer Foundation website at www.PCF.org for more information on risk factors, and to access a list of prevention tips. Your Heart’s Health According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, heart disease causes more than one in four deaths of men in the United States. To get an accurate gauge of your risk, be honest with your doctor. He or she can’t advise you properly if you don’t share all the facts on your habits -- good and bad. Have your blood pressure and cholesterol tested at recommended intervals. Ask your doctor if your levels are normal and what you
can do if they aren’t. If you don’t currently get regular physical activity, your doctor can advise you on safely easing into an exercise program. Diabetes Risk Many people have the misconception that if something is wrong; their bodies will let them know. But diabetes often begins without symptoms. Your risk factor for developing diabetes goes up if you are overweight, have high blood pressure, or a family history of the disease. Ask your doctor if you need to be screened. In the meantime, lower your risk for diabetes by maintaining a healthy weight. Your doctor is a great resource for helping you form an effective weight management plan. It’s vital for men to manage their risks for lifethreatening diseases like prostate cancer, and one of the best ways to do that is with regular visits to the doctor. If it’s been over a year since your last appointment, call today to schedule a visit.

(StatePoint) Two of the most commonly made and commonly broken New Year’s resolutions are saving money and paying off debt. These are promises we all seem to make to ourselves every year with every intention of seeing through. But somehow, we wind up in the same spot we were before. So how can you make sure that 2013 is the year you take control of your finances and start making your money work for you?
Save more money in 2013
• Figure out what your objectives are -be it paying off debt, buying a first home, or saving for vacation. Identifying your goals can help you stay motivated. Consider placing a visual reminder somewhere you’ll see all the time, like the refrigerator. • Many people have no idea how much money they spend monthly. Creating a spending plan is vital if you want to make your money do for you what you want it to. If you share your finances with someone else, make sure he or she is part of this process as well. • Many financial services companies offer free tools to help you easily see what you’ve been spending and ways you can save. For example, the nonprofit Family Credit Management offers spending plans, savings guides and a comprehensive personal financial goals workbook that help you to lay out a
strong plan in an easy way. Visit www.FamilyCredit.org to see these and other financial tools. • Make the small changes that add up to big savings. Most people have small expenses that they can live without. Maybe for you it’s a coffee every morning on your way to work. If you do this every weekday, that adds up to $1,300 per year! If that’s important to you, then fine. But if it’s not worth the annual amount you’re spending, cut the cost. The idea is not to strip the fun from your life, but to save money on things that you really don’t care about. For more areas to save in your daily life, visit www.StopThinkSave.org. • Involve your whole family. Many parents feel the need to shelter kids from financial strain, but budgeting is an invaluable life lesson that you can teach them by including them in the process.
• Ask for help! If you feel you could use some guidance, reach out to a certified credit counselor who is licensed by your state’s banking department and has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Visit www.FamilyCredit.org to find a certified counselor. • Finally, figure out what to do with your new found savings! If you’re not sure where you’d like to keep or invest your money, you can visit bankrate.com and investigate high interest, low balance requirement savings accounts. Once you’ve completed these steps, you are on your way! Saving money is habit forming -- when you get your monthly statement and you see money building up, you’ll want to put more and more away. It’s a great way to get started on a financially successful New Year.
