PHILANTHROPY OR CHARITY

According to the Dictionary, charity and philanthropy are two different things.

CHARITY Charity is the voluntary giving of help, typically money, to those that are suffering or in need. It tends to address an immediate problem and is a compassionate response to a natural disaster, or a token of support for the victim of crime or violence, for example. Charity can also address immediate needs for food, shelter or medical care. It is a short term response, although one may give frequently to a particular cause.

6

PHILANTHROPY Philanthropy is more strategic in that it seeks to root out causes of the problem and to develop long term solutions. Striving for long term solutions to problems such as addiction, housing shortages, or hunger takes time, study, and planning. This is where charity comes in, providing direct relief for people in immediate need.

TA M PA | F LO R I DA | VO L . 4

also may offer some additional advantages. For example, a qualified charity may receive your IRA with no tax consequences since charities do not pay taxes.

Appreciated assets are also beneficial as a gift to a charity, as capital gains tax can be avoided.

Both charity and philanthropy possess the same goals of addressing needs and making the world a better place but with different approaches. One deals with direct relief and the other with root causes and finding solutions.

Is one better than the other? Of course not! They are just two different ways of solving problems and both are essential to the functioning of a decent society.

Recently, there have been changes to the tax code regarding charitable giving.

Three Acts have been passed recently - The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA), the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act (SECURE) and the Corona Virus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES). All have some impact on deductibility of charitable contributions. They

Another way to contribute is through a community foundation, which is a grant making public charity that is dedicated to improving lives in a particular community. Individuals, families, businesses and non-profit groups establish funds within the foundation in which they can contribute assets for charitable purposes.

The foundation manages the assets and takes suggestions from those that set up the fund on how and where to distribute the resources.

There are over 700 community foundations in the United States.

Whether one chooses charity or philanthropy, the ultimate goal is to help the community by using personal skills and resources to make a difference.

INTERIOR DESIGN TRENDS FOR 2022 After the last eighteen months, many people are now seriously considering updating their homes - creating new spaces, changing color schemes, furniture and even artwork. It’s become clear that home décor has an impact on emotions and well-being.

An emphasis on natural light, good ventilation, and biophilic (connection with nature) design have gained in popularity. This is accomplished with the use of indoor plants, skylights, and open indoor-outdoor floorplans.

Another noted concern is on climate change; many are now considering sustainability and which materials are best to use for the health of our planet.

Homeowners want spaces that reflect their personalities, interests, hobbies, and history. Outdoor spaces are being treated as integral parts of the home, creating additional rooms to expand a family’s living and entertainment spaces. Stylish furniture is being chosen to be compatible with the indoor space. (. . .continued on page 12)

TA M PA | F LO R I DA | VO L . 4

Vintage and antique furniture are also making a comeback due to the widespread interest in sustainability. Lamps are important, not just for lighting, but also as art or a statement piece.

The styles of the 70’s have made a resurgence, but with a twist.

More muted and earthy tones have replaced bright orange, along with rounded furniture and multiple patterned fabrics.

CHOOSING COLORS IS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT FOR THE DESIGN OF ANY HOME. This year Pantone has named “Very Peri” its color of the year.

“Very Peri” is a bold blue with violet-red undertones, often called periwinkle. Periwinkle represents serenity and calmness as well as vibrancy and excitement.

According to Pantone, “Veri Peri” helps us embrace this

altered landscape of possibilities, opening us up to a new vision as we re-write our lives: rekindling gratitude for some of the qualities that blue represents complemented by a new perspective that resonates today, Very Peri places the future ahead in a new light.

These are transformative times

and “Very Peri is a symbol of the global zeitgeist of the moment and the transition we are going through.”

Expect to see Very Peri in many different shades and uses. It can be used as an accent color for pillows, glassware, accent chairs, area rugs or art.

Or one can try periwinkle patterned wallpaper to create excitement on walls, ceilings or even cabinets.

Etsy has named Emerald Green their color of the year. It is a reminder of nature and works well on walls, bedding, pillows, and art.

Other paint companies have chosen a more neutral color palette for the year 2022 in the belief that calm is needed after the uncertainty of the last two years. Either way, bright cheerful colors are sometimes exactly what we need.

THE CHOICE IS

yours!

The first thing to understand is that writing a will and having an estate plan are actually two different processes, even though an estate plan will include a will.

Wills Creating a will can be a fairly simple process. It will address who will take care of your children, who will take over your business, and who receives your assets and other personal property. A will requires the naming of an executor responsible for fulfilling the deceased’s wishes. Having one’s wishes defined in a will ensures privacy, helps avoid family disputes and saves money by avoiding probate and the expense of attorneys and public trustees to determine the distribution of assets which then becomes public information.

Estate Planning Estate planning is the process of designating who will manage and distribute assets after death or incapacitation. It is a more intensive process and includes a variety of documents including the last will and testament. While it may be overwhelming to contemplate, a welldesigned estate plan will ensure that assets are distributed according to one’s wishes. In addition to the last will and testament, an estate plan

18

TA M PA | F LO R I DA | VO L . 4

might include a living will, a financial power of attorney, a living trust, and beneficiary designations. An estate plan can be particularly helpful in the case of multiple marriages, business ownership, specific charitable donations, or specific requests for health or property. It can also ensure wishes are carried out and that assets are distributed as designated.

Living Will A living will is a document that describes the type of care one would want if incapacitated and cannot speak for themself. This can assist the family with difficult decisions and avoid confusion.

A financial power of attorney allows for a designated appointee to handle financial affairs in the event of incapacitation. They can make financial decisions in accordance with the instructions defined in the estate plan.

Living Trust A living trust is a document created during one’s life where a designated person, the trustee, is given responsibility for managing that individual’s assets for the benefit of the eventual beneficiary. It is designed to allow for the easy transfer of assets, thereby avoiding probate.

A living revocable trust allows someone to be their own trustee and allows for changes in beneficiary at any time.

19

TA M PA | F LO R I DA | VO L . 4

An irrevocable living trust is restrictive, and beneficiaries may not be changed but there are certain beneficial tax consequences.

Beneficiary designations explain who receives which assets such as an IRA, insurance policy, savings account, or other financial instruments.

A well-executed estate plan can minimize gift, estate and generation skipping transfer taxes to ensure that the family receives as much of the deceased’s estate as possible. Everyone’s plan is different and requires the right team of professionals to implement. It is also important to update the plan regularly as personal circumstances, legislation, and tax laws change frequently.

TIME TO

It is time to start thinking about traveling again.

Why not go somewhere historic and fun. Learn about Incan civilization at Machu Picchu in Peru or Mayan civilization in Mexico.

Machu Picchu, or the lost city as it is often referred to, is a bucketlist type of destination. As a world heritage site and one of the new Seven Wonders of the world, it is often considered to be the most spectacular urban creation of the Incan civilization.

It was built as a sacred site around 1430 by the 9th Incan king without

36

the use of mortar. The stonework for the buildings is so well put together that there are no gaps in the joins. Instead, stones were cut to fit together. The stones can weigh as much as 50 tons and were transported without wheels.

Rather, they were pushed up the hill by hundreds of men.

Visit the semi-circular Temple of the Sun which is built around an enormous boulder. See the Temple of the Moon and its

TA M PA | F LO R I DA | VO L . 4

ceremonial shrine built into a cave with niches that most likely held mummies. There is also a museum which explains how and why Machu Picchu was built. Located 8000 feet above sea level and deep in the tropical forest, it offers amazing architecture, incredible scenery and an abundance of unusual flora and fauna.

There are 2 ways to arrive at Machu Picchu. One can travel by train from either Cusco or the Sacred Valley. Cusco is the easiest and the voyage takes 3.5 hours along the Urubamba River in the Sacred Valley. There is a hotel on site with a restaurant as well as luxury hotels in Cusco. Cusco is filled with historic sites from Incan and colonial times as well as restaurants, shopping and people watching.

Along the Yucatan Peninsula, there are many historic sites built by the ancient Mayan people.

One of the most popular is Tulum which is a well-preserved 13th century walled city situated on tall cliffs overlooking the Caribbean Sea. It is easily accessed from Cancun. Visit El Castillo, the

temple of the Frescoes and the Temple of the Descending God or explore the underground caverns of LabnaHa Eco Park and consider snorkeling in the caves of Cenote Dos Ojos.

arena, the Osario Pyramid and the Temple of the Warriors. The city was built over centuries going back as far as 600 ad and grew until the 1600’s when it was conquered by the Spanish.

A day trip from Tulum takes you to the city of Chichen Itza, another of the new Seven Wonders of the World. It is one of the largest and best preserved architectural sites in the world. There are many ancient Mayan structures including the famous El Castillo pyramid which dominates the center of the site. It is 98 feet tall.

There is also an ancient sports

Along with the historic sites on the Yucatan Peninsula, there are wonderful places to stay - Cancun for a city feel and Playa del Carmen for a small-town vibe and there is no shortage of all-inclusive beach resorts.

After a year of staying in the house, wearing sweats and other assorted quarantine gear, it is time for a change. Many are now finally ready to dress up, even while still wearing masks and social distancing.

Break out all of those accessories that piled up from months of online shopping. Nobody will judge if you overaccessorize.

The new year brings changing trends in jewelry, both traditional and avant-garde. Pearls have always been in, but we are now seeing more of the freshwater variety. They have a more contemporary look.

From pearl drop earrings to layered necklaces that mix

40

TA M PA | F LO R I DA | VO L . 4

pearls with other materials, pearls work for all occasions. There are also personalized extra-long pendant necklaces and charm bracelets. Colorful beads are always a hit, whether worn as earrings, necklaces, or bracelets.

Chain link necklaces and bracelets with attached charms are also hot

at the moment. And feel free to stack rings on a couple fingers while you’re at it!

A brand new trend is mismatched earrings or simply wearing one dramatic shoulder grazing earring.

Of course two shoulder length earrings also work. Mixing and matching different textures is also very popular. Instead of smooth gold hoops, go for a textured pair in silver; silver has made a huge comeback.

Several top designers have moved towards mini handbags recently, often on long chains. They can even be worn as a necklace. And of course, let’s not forget about diamonds. They remain at the top of the food chain. Just ask Marilyn Monroe -“Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend”.

Hair ornaments of all sizes can make a powerful fashion statement. There are a multitude of choices from traditional headbands to pearl hairpins or hair clips, barrettes, and even scrunchies. They come in a variety of fabrics from velvet to fur to leather. Most popular are headbands embellished with pearls, rhinestones or feathers.

You’ll always look chic with a headband!

Regardless of individual style, all can agree – now is the time to shine!

TA M PA | F LO R I DA | VO L . 4

In addition to taking steps to protect your information, there are things to do to detect identity theft.

Track what bills you owe and when they are due. If you stop getting a bill, that could be a sign someone changed your address or other information Review your bills for charges that don’t belong to you Check your bank account for withdrawals not made by you Get and review your credit reports, as accounts you don’t recognize could be a sign of identity theft.

Many companies sell identity theft protection services that may include credit monitoring, identity monitoring, identity recovery services, and identity theft insurance. These services may be offered by your bank or credit union, credit card provider, employer’s benefits program, or insurance company. Also, there are credit monitoring services like Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion that offer these services as well.

Identity monitoring services may notify you of a change of address request, court or arrest records, orders for new utility, cable or wire services, application for a payday loan, information on websites that sell stolen identity information.

Most will not notify you if someone uses your information to file a tax return and collect your refund, get Medicare benefits, get Medicaid benefits, get welfare benefits, claim Social Security benefits, claim unemployment benefits.
