FIND A HOBBY

MANY PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD ENJOY POPULAR GAME Try it in your back yard with

2-4 players

by Harleena Singh, Staff Writer In croquet, players use a mallet to hit wooden or plastic balls through hoops or wickets embedded in a grass playing court. People of both genders and all ages play croquet. Many Americans, adults and children alike, play nine-wicket croquet in public parks and back yards across the United States. Six-wicket croquet, a complex sport

played at croquet clubs all over the world, requires only four balls and two to four adult players. In the United States, three forms of croquet are played: International Association croquet; American six-wicket croquet; and American nine-wicket croquet. All three forms use the same equipment and lawn, but nine-wicket CROQUET Continued on Page 6

NEW PLAYER TIPS

1 2 3 4

Find a natural, comfortable grip. Research the correct grip and posture. Swing the mallet in a pendulum motion. Avoid swinging from your wrists. Keep your head down while swinging. You may spoil the shot if you raise your head too early. Don’t lean too far forward. Position your feet so the mallet can be drawn back without striking your ankle or foot.

croquet has nine hoops or wickets and two pegs or stakes. A simplified version of Association croquet is golf croquet, which is also played in many countries. National Croquet Day is celebrated June 5 in the United Kingdom. Almost anyone can play croquet, including those in wheelchairs and those who use walkers. Croquet has therapeutic benefits for people with dementia. It gives participants the benefits of social engagement, cognitive stimulation and physical exercise while having a good time. James Creasey founded Jiminy Wicket, a Colorado-based nonprofit that introduces the game to Alzheimer’s patients in longterm care facilities and senior centers. According to Creasey, croquet is the ideal sport for people suffering from dementia. The four balls are easy to identify because they are different colors. The grass on a croquet lawn is flat so the ball goes in a straight line and leaning on the mallet helps with balance. Moreover, croquet is low cost and intergenerational. “For me, the social factor is a huge part of my attraction to the game,” said Tom Teater, who regularly plays in the annual Henry Clay Croquet Tournament at Ashland, the Henry Clay Estate in Lexington. “The slower pace of croquet really allows players the opportunity to talk and enjoy the company of friends. I enjoy the competitive aspects of the game. The size of your opponent doesn’t matter on the course; it is all about skill and commitment to practice time.” But even as he competes, Teater experiences a Zenlike calm. “I find croquet to be very relaxing,” he said. “It is one of the few times I find myself totally relaxed, playing with friends and being outdoors on a beautiful summer afternoon.” About the Author:

Living Frugally YOU CAN AVOID GOING

BROKE IN RETIREMENT

by Harleena Singh, Staff Writer

Many people in the United States with significant savings fear going broke in retirement, according to a recent survey. However, there are ways to live frugally to try to prevent that from happening.

1. Analyze your living situation.

According to research, the cost of a home and homerelated expenses accounts for nearly 43 percent of spending for people who are 65 to 74 years of age. So, to save money, it may be worth downsizing to a smaller home, which also gives you a chance to earn money by selling items you no longer need. 2. Plan ahead if you are thinking of shifting to another home or a different part of the country.

Ensure the area has the amenities you’re looking for, such as medical facilities, places of worship, colleges and universities. Make sure you’re going to be comfortable there. FINANCIAL Continued on Page 10

3. Check out senior discounts, deals and offers from hotels, restaurants, drugstores, etc.

Some tickets to museums and live performances come with discounts for seniors, so make use of them. In Florida, people who are 60 and older can audit any college course anywhere in the state at no cost, but they don’t get any college credit. 4. Cut the fat from your food budget.

It’s cheaper to make more meals at home after retirement. If you choose to dine out, find places that offer less expensive meals and again, take advantage of senior discount offers. 5. Be a savvy grocery shopper.

Keep a lookout for good deals wherever you shop, including dollar stores, wholesale clubs and farmers markets. Look for coupons in the newspaper and stores and check out online discounts and coupons as well. If you plan your meals for the week and make a shopping list, you’ll make fewer trips to the grocery store and waste less food. 6. Evaluate your bills and costs.

If you’re not using most of your cable channels, consider scaling back to a more affordable package. Couples with two cars

may be able to get by with one to cut maintenance and gas costs. Retirement is a good time to consider going in for more compact and fuel-efficient vehicles. 7. Take charge of your medical costs.

Always ask your doctor what different diagnostic tests will cost. 8. Look for other sources of income.

You can even consider part-time work. Many seniors feel lost and depressed after they quit their jobs, so a part-time job would ensure you remain busy. Living frugally is a lifestyle that covers the basics in the least expensive way possible. You don’t have to give up everything and live like a hermit. Having a thrifty yet fabulous life in retirement is possible with a little discipline and attention to detail. References:

Long-term care

It has been very difficult for families over the past few months with the restricted access to hospitals, nursing homes, and other long-term care facilities. It has been difficult for elder law attorneys as well. We are utilizing our contacts within those facilities, and technology, and sometimes even snail mail to

Whether it is Zoom or FaceTime, the way we interact with others has changed. It may not ever go back to the way it was. We have enjoyed helping our clients learn new technology. We are thrilled to reach those that otherwise would not have been able to receive legal services during the

pandemic. Covid-19 forced us to use technology. And now we plan to continue. Technology enables us to serve clients in communities a great distance from us and clients in medical facility settings. Our clients no longer have to travel for us to interact with them on such a personal level. Thank goodness for video screens! Social Distancing

Because the elderly are at high risk for COVID-19 and other infection diseases, social distancing and the use of face masks or shields are incredibly important. While senior living facilities are beginning

to lift visitation restrictions, we must continue to be vigilant. From phone calls, to video chats, to endless personal protective equipment, we are committed to provide safe legal services. We wipe all relevant surfaces between clients, we seat lawyers and clients at a social distance, and we wear face coverings. It is everyone’s hope that social distancing is temporary. For now, we will continue to waive and chat from a distance but look forward to resuming handshakes and hugs. Let us know how we may assist you and your family.

RELATIONSHIPS

Spenders vs. Savers TALK ABOUT FINANCES BEFORE YOU TIE THE KNOT

By TaNiqua Ward, M.S., Staff Writer

One of the many things a couple should discuss before marriage is finances. Financial issues are among the top three leading causes of divorce in the United States, according to the Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts (www.institutedfa.com). It is important to know your partner’s financial stance as you enter into a serious relationship and definitely before getting married. Finances can make or break a relationship. Different spending habits, different financial goals and financial secrets should all be things you discuss with you partner so you can know whether you can see yourself dealing with those issues for an extended period. Different upbringings and different attitudes towards money also need to be addressed early on.

As with everything, the key is balance. It is essential that you and your partner are able to balance your differences in financial beliefs. Be willing to compromise. Here are some ways to address money so you can discover what works best for you and your partner: Action Plan.

Have the saver manage the money and create a plan with some assistance from the spender. The saver should take full responsibility of accounts and review spending history. Set a plan for purchasing things that are more expensive and may take more time to save up for. Set expectations on the amount you want to have in various accounts and how you want to distribute money into the account.

The most important thing is to find a system that works best for you and your partner.

Allowance.

Each partner should get an allowance each month for personal expenses. It may be the same amount for each person or different amounts based on each person’s monthly expenses. Make sure to discuss each amount with your partner and come to an agreement. It is also important to decide what the personal allowance will cover: going out with friends, clothes, lunches? Separate Funds.

Find a way to keep funds such as checking and savings separate. You and your partner could also have separate accounts. You may choose to set up one checking account, one savings account and one fund from which to pay bills. They say opposites attract. You two can learn from one another’s money-handling habits. The spender might help the saver splurge every once in a while. The saver may help the spender develop more discipline and work toward a financial goal he or she wants to achieve. The most important thing is to find a system that works best for you and your partner. It will make for a happier relationship with less arguing and more time enjoying one another.

Everyone should commit to saving even a small

amount monthly.

Saving for a Rainy Day PUT YOUR MONEY AWAY JUST IN CASE We all know we need to save money, but many of us put off saving. We need to develop a rainy day fund. Having a “rainy day fund” gives you the peace of mind of knowing you are secure and better prepared to meet unexpected expenses. Bankrate’s Financial Security Index says 20 percent of individuals do not have any money saved. Only one person in five has sufficient funds to cover three months of expenses. Everyone should commit to saving even a small amount monthly. It will add up and become more useful over time.

by Jean Jeffers, Staff Writer

A rainy day fund should not be confused with an emergency fund. An emergency fund is money saved for times of unemployment and extended illnesses, when it is necessary to find the money to pay everyday expenses such as a mortgage, groceries and utilities as well as medical bills. An emergency fund is usually a savings of $10,000 to $15,000. Rainy day savings are far smaller. This is the money you use to pay for service when the washer or dryer breaks down or to cover a few sick days or an occasional unexpected doctor visit, car repair or prescription. It is not for funding a vacation or the purchase of a new car. A rainy day fund typically is $1,000 to $5,000. To build your rainy day fund, you may want to cut expenses or create extra income. There are two kinds of “rain” here:

www.livingwell60plus.com |

1. Predictable rain: car insurance, property tax, car registration, expenses you know are coming and how much they are. 2. Unpredictable rain: you know the expense will come, you just don’t know how much or when. Save for both. Here are some strategies for starting a rainy day fund: • Save your change, either coins and/or single dollar bills, left at the end of the day. • Quit a bad habit and save the money you spend on it. Consider giving up habits such as smoking, stopping at the local snack shop for a treat after work or getting that extra beer with dinner — put that money in your rainy day fund. • Find sources of extra income, such as selling part of a personal wardrobe that you don’t wear much or gently used furniture. These things could be sold on Ebay or at a consignment shop.

July/August 2020

• Lay off the credit cards. Your aim is to budget and save out of your income, not to continue to go in debt. • Put that small raise you received into this fund. It will have a lot more muscle here. • Keep your rainy day fund in a Roth IRA or a no-fee savings account. Other good places to park such money include certificates of deposit and money market accounts. • Don’t make it easy to get to the money. For example, keep it at a different bank from where you have your checking account. • Put your financial goals in writing and periodically review them. Teach your children to save for a rainy day as well by putting their gift money or part of their allowance in the bank. By helping them be aware, you may find you step up more to the task.

Winning the

Credit Card Game One of the most critical pieces of advice is this: Pay your balance off monthly.

by Doris Settles, Staff Writer

Games come with rules and well-thoughtout strategies that put you in the winner’s circle. Using credit cards wisely and safely is like playing a game that some win and others lose. Here are some strategies that, if followed carefully, can help you be a winner. Snazzy advertising, amazing promises and glitzy card designs lure us into signing on the dotted line. But before you do that, read the fine print … ALL the fine print. These are just a few of the fines that may be hiding in “fine print”:


July/August 2020

• On some cards, one late payment can raise an introductory rate of 1.9 percent to a 35-percent default rate. • A hefty fee normally awaits those who go over their contracted limit. • Spending over your limit can also cause your interest rate to skyrocket. • Late fees have increased in recent years from $5 to $10 to an average of $30.81. • You may be charged a fee for making a payment over the telephone. • Some companies insist that it takes 48 hours or more to process your payment, which (even if it arrives on the due date) can earn them additional interest and possible late-payment fees. One of the most critical pieces of advice is this: Pay your balance off monthly. A $2,000 Visa balance with an interest rate of 18 percent would take nearly 30 years to pay off when making a 2-percent minimum monthly payment. The interest accrual would be $5,000. Even if you up that to a 4-percent minimum payment, you wouldn’t be paid in full for 10 years with an interest accrual of $1,100. It’s costly to make minimum payments. If you charge everyday items without thinking about it or charge items you really cannot afford, it’s easy to see your balance quickly go beyond your ability to pay it off each month. If you can’t keep the balance within reach of paying it off each month, use cash or debit cards for most purposes. Use credit cards sparingly as a credit-score builder.

Know how obtaining a new credit card or cancelling a card will impact your credit score. Don’t cancel a long-standing card in favor of a new one if you only have one card; your score may tank. You might keep the card open but switch to using the new one. A good rule of thumb for building long-term credit is to keep your spending within 30 percent of your credit limit; your score is calculated on your debt-to-credit ratio so keeping it low builds your score. If your purchasing decisions go awry – if you bought items you badly wanted, rather than really needed – and you have a balance you cannot pay off, there are several strategies to keep your credit strong and save money. New purchases added to an existing balance accrue more interest. So charge new things on a “clean” card – one without a balance – and keep it paid off. Pay as much as you can until the card with a balance is paid off. Meanwhile, renegotiate your interest rate, especially if you are receiving offers lower than you currently pay. The information listed on your credit report doesn’t just affect the number of credit cards you can carry. It can also play a part in where you live, who will hire you and what you’re required to pay in order to receive household services such as telephone, gas and electricity. Be aware that the information in your credit file can sometimes be misleading or incorrect. It can sometimes even belong to someone else.

According to the Fair Trade Commission, people generally do not become aware of identity theft until about 14 months after the crime has occurred. Meanwhile, debts are accruing in your name and damaging your credit history. Fortunately, a number of new laws protect your rights as a credit consumer. By becoming familiar with these rights and using them, you can take control of your own financial future. Here are seven ways to manage your personal information wisely and minimize the risks of identity theft: Before you reveal any personal information such as your Social Security number or PIN, find out whether it will be shared with other institutions or organizations. Pay attention to billing cycles; contact the creditor if a bill is late. Guard your mail by depositing outgoing mail in a post office collection box or at your local post office. Do not leave mail in your mailbox overnight. Look for Internet security emblems such as VeriSign© before giving out information online. Protect personal information in your home. Shred charge receipts, credit offers, insurance forms, discarded checks and financial statements. Guard your Social Security Number, and leave the card in a safe place at home. Order your credit report from the three bureaus every year and scrutinize it.

pet health

Looking for the best pet care options for the health and wellness of your 4-Legged friends? Then welcome to our “Pet Health” Section, where we will bring you the finest businesses in Central Kentucky that will tend to the care and well-being of our furry loved ones. In this issue we feature “Uptown Hounds,” an upscale pet resort in downtown Lexington that will pamper your pooch in the way he or she deserves, as well as all the good things that are happening at the Lexington Humane Society.

ANIMALS FIND SECOND CHANCES

T

AT LEXINGTON HUMANE SOCIETY

he life-saving work the Lexington Humane Society (LHS) provides is accomplished by our community’s desire to give animals another chance at a healthy and happy forever. Every program LHS has in place guides animals in their journey to adoption day. The Second Chances program was developed as a way to provide extraordinary treatment for animals in need of special medical intervention that would otherwise prevent them from thriving. Second Chances funding assists with inten-

sive surgeries, diagnostic work, equine rescue, prescriptions, formula for foster care and special food – resources that many animals in need would typically not receive. Having an on-site veterinarian and in-house pharmacy allows us to stretch our dollars further, in turn helping a greater number of special-needs animals each year. Typically, an amputation surgery would cost at least $800. However, we are able to perform the same surgery on-site for approximately $250. Bladder surgery normally costs up to $3,000, yet our cost is only

$1,000. The average amount spent on each Second Chances animal is approximately $1,000. We are reminded, now more than ever, that we must lean on each other for support. Even during these unprecedented times, we are sure our community will continue to rise to the occasion when there are animals in need. Every dollar counts when providing life-saving care to animals waiting to meet their forever families. They need us. We need you. Donate today to give an animal their second chance.

Sharing the Care is Only Fair By Lisa M. Petsche, Staff Writer

Caring for an aging relative typically involves physical, psychological, emotional and financial demands that increase over time. If you have a parent, sibling or other relative in a caregiving role, it’s important to reach out and support them. This can be done even if you don’t live close by. Here some ideas for supporting the primary caregiver in your family. CARE Continued on Page 28

Ask what kind of help the caregiver could use most.

CARE continued from Page 27

If You Live Nearby:

• Offer to sit with the care receiver for an hour or two while the caregiver runs errands, gets her hair done or attends a social event. Make this a regular practice. • Offer to accompany the caregiver and care receiver to a community event so the caregiver has an extra pair of hands and eyes. • Coordinate get-togethers that don’t involve any work on the caregiver’s part. • Offer to accompany the caregiver to a support group meeting if he can make respite arrangements;

otherwise, offer to be the respite provider so he can attend the group. • Help make it possible for the caregiver to practice self-care. For example, bring over a meal or offer to stay with the care receiver while the caregiver takes a walk or attends a fitness class. Helping from a Distance

Even if you’re not available for hands-on assistance, you can still help the primary caregiver take care of your relative’s needs. Here are some ideas: • If your relative has a chronic illness, gather and share information to

help family members understand the disease and what to expect in the future. • Offer to research support services in your relative’s community that can help. Information can be obtained from the local office on aging. • Clip and send articles about caregiving that contain practical information, such as behavior management tips or self-care strategies. • Volunteer to be the point person who keeps family and friends current about how the care receiver and caregiver are doing and


July/August 2020

informs others about any needs that arise. • Ask what kind of help the caregiver could use most. Perhaps you can cover or at least contribute towards the cost of medical equipment, home adaptations, house cleaning, yard maintenance service or respite care. Coordinate the pooling of funds with other family members as needed. • Offer to come and stay with your relative so the caregiver can take a vacation.

Providing Emotional Support

• Assume responsibility for communication. Arrange a regular time to call or Skype. Ask not only how the care receiver is doing, but also how the caregiver is coping. Encourage the caregiver to call you with concerns. Don’t forget to express appreciation for all he or she does for your relative. • Listen to the caregiver without judgment. Offer empathy and words of support. Encourage him or her to take one day at a time.

• Send a card or note to brighten the caregiver’s day. • Surprise the caregiver with a treat, such as a music CD, fresh flowers or a gift certificate to a restaurant that has takeout and delivery service. • Encourage the caregiver to accept offers of help and ask for assistance. About the Author:
