Bridgeport News Will Stop Publishing at End of this Month

  The Bridgeport News along with numerous other small business owners have been feeling a deep loss due to the pandemic during the last 6 months.   We were riding out this health crisis along with the rest of you. I am very sad and heartbroken to announce that the The Bridgeport Newspaper will cease operations after our October 28th, 2020 edi-tion.    We are truly grateful for all our customers, busi-nesses, churches, schools, parks and residents who supported us over our 80 years of servicing the com-munity.   I personally loved and enjoyed working for the Feldman family over these past 47 years, they’re the BEST! I am so grateful for all of my coworkers, past employees, customers and friends I have made while working at the Bridgeport News. I truly have been blessed to be part of this family owned com-munity business for so many years. I will miss it dearly, and with my retirement I am looking forward to my next chapter in life.

God Bless and Stay Well & Healthy! Janice Racinowski - Editor/Manager

Armour Square Area Traffic Calming Meeting

  As you know, we have been experiencing an uptick in shootings in the Armour Square area. I have been working with the Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT) and the 9th District Police Commander for the past year on making this area safer.   We first conducted a comprehensive traffic study of the area from West 26th Street to West 33rd Street and From South Stewart Avenue to South Wentworth Avenue. The proposed traffic safety design accommodates for the annual parade route which is depicted on the map. Per the traffic study, the CDOT plan includes traffic circles and changing certain streets to one-way.   CDOT has identified 8 intersections where a traffic circle could be installed: West 28th Place and South Princeton Avenue, West 28th Place and South Wells Street, West 29th Street and South Shields Avenue, West 29th Street and South Wells Street, West 30th Street and South Shields Avenue, West 30th Street and South Princeton Avenue, West 32nd Street and South Shields Avenue, West 32nd Street and South Wells Street. CDOT has identified 2 streets that could be converted to One Way: West 28th Place One Way going West from S Wentworth to S Stewart, and West 29th Street One Way going East from S Stewart to S Wentworth.   We are hosting a virtual community meeting on October 22nd to present the pro-posal and engage with our neighbors. I value your input and participation. Please join us on October 22nd at 6pm. Thank you. Join Zoom meeting by going to www.zoom.us, click “join a meeting” and enter the following: Meeting ID: 828 0667 4965   If you would like to dial-in, please call (312) 626-6799 and enter the meeting ID and press #.

Some Key Points for Young Savers to Consider for a Financial Retirement Plan   When starting a retirement savings and investment plan, the rule of thumb is the earlier, the better. For young professionals, that can be easier said than done. High rent, student loan payments, and modest junior-level salaries make saving a challenge. And now in this unprecedented year come the dynamics adding economic uncertainty – the coronavirus, a global recession, and the upcoming presidential election. Those young people whose 401(k) values were rising steadily before 2020 now are nervous and wondering how to plan for a retirement that’s a long way away.   Become a disciplined saver. The optimal savings rate toward retirement is at least 20% of gross income. That may be too high for young savers, given their other financial obligations, but the important thing is to make savings a priority. Save at a consistent rate and increase it as soon as possible. The best way to stick with your savings plan is to develop automated savings strategies, such as to have contributions made directly to a 401(k). Another option that’s popular is splitting up direct deposits, with one going into a dedicated savings account.   Keep contributing to your 401(k) – even if your employer stopped matching. Due to the pandemic, many companies suspended or reduced their 401(k) matching con-tributions to save cash and avoid layoffs. While such a move slows one’s accumulation of retirement funds, the bigger long-term damage is done when an employee stops contributing to the 401(k) at the same time that the employer stops matching. At min-imum, maintain your current retirement contributions or, if you can afford to, increase them to compensate for the temporary loss of your employer’s 401(k) match.   Another alternative is redirecting a portion of your retirement contributions to a Roth Individual Retirement Account. Contributions to a Roth IRA are made with funds on which you’ve already paid income tax, and in many cases offer more flexibility when it comes to investment choices. But whatever you do, keep contributing. By staying the course, either in your 401(k) or Roth IRA, you can continue to grow your nest egg and take advantage of a market recovery when it arrives. And if you can afford to in-crease your contributions, you’ll keep your retirement plan on track.   Diversify savings and investment vehicles. 401(k) contributions accumulate on a tax-deferred basis, usually are withdrawn when investors are in a lower tax bracket, and often include some employer-matching funds to augment savings. While these are all positives, it’s important to save elsewhere. Remember, qualified retirement funds are functionally locked away until age 59 1/2, so they aren't available in the event that a cash need arises. Moreover, 401(k) savings are taxed at the time of withdrawal.   Young investors should consider balancing traditional 401(k)s with a Roth IRA – or Roth 401(k) if it's offered – or a normal brokerage account. Roth contributions are made after tax, but they allow tax-free growth and withdrawals in retirement. They also typically allow penalty-free withdrawals up to the amount contributed. This pro-vides some liquidity as well as an excellent tax benefit for accounts that appreciate sub-stantially. Regular brokerage accounts provide no tax advantages, but they are liquid and still offer growth.   Having a growth mindset is central to building a good retirement plan while young. With many years until retirement, a young investor’s accounts should be weighted to-ward stocks, with enough diversification to protect against poor performing stocks or industries. Success in the stock market comes over the long haul, and young people have time to ride out cycles and downturns.   With a long time horizon and relatively low income relative to their later career earn-ings, young investors are in a unique position to realize the benefits of these vehicles. Using a mixture of these different account types will diversify tax exposure and balance savings and earnings with accessibility.   For young investors, it cannot be emphasized more: start saving early, be consistent, be diligent, be growth-minded. Start saving in a systematic way and diversify as you can. Whatever 2020 is throwing at you, it doesn’t have to stop you from having a good, disciplined plan that will pay off many years from now.

COVID and Separation Anxiety in Pets

  As parts of the country start to reopen, many peo-ple who have worked from home will slowly start heading back to the office. Although this may be a welcome change for some, others like our pets, may need to adjust not having us around 24/7.   If you shared your home office with your furry friend over the last couple of months, it’s likely that your pet could experience separation anxiety when they suddenly find themselves home alone.   Here are a few tips to ease the “back to the office” transition for you and your pet.   Practice and desensitize: When leaving and re-turning home, it's important to keep it a very neutral and low-key experience for your dog. Petting them and giving them excessive amounts of attention be-fore leaving or when you get home will only cause them to notice your absence that much more.   Desensitize your pet to cues you are leaving - grab your keys, put on your shoes and coat at vari-ous times of the day without actually leaving. If your dog has any cues that you are about to leave, be sure to practice those to desensitize your dog to your be-havior.   Start practicing by leaving the house for very short periods of time. Be sure to keep the whole ex-perience very low-key. Leave for 30 seconds and then return. Increase that time to 1 minute, 5 min-utes, 15 minutes, etc. Vary the times to confuse your pet and show him that regardless of how long you're gone, you will still return.   Prepare your pet: Only give attention on your terms. Exercise them before leaving to help reduce anxiety.   Preparing your house: Leave a TV or radio on to fill the void of a now quiet house. They also may enjoy the distraction of a favorite enrichment toy and, of course, snacks.   Consider your options: If your pet is comfortable with the crate, crate training may be a good place to start to keep your pet in a comfortable environment where they won't have access to chew up your pos-sessions. You might consider hiring a pet sitter or taking your dog to daycare a few times per week.   If you are still having troubles with separation anxiety, we recommend contacting a dog trainer with expertise in this area.

FREE DAYS at the Shedd Aquarium Throughout October

  Illinois Residents Can Enjoy the Aquarium for Free on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays for the month of October.   The Shedd Aquarium will offer twelve days in October when Illinois resi-dents can visit the aquarium free of charge. The free days underscore Shedd’s commitment to allowing everyone an opportunity to come eye to eye with aquatic life – even despite the aquarium’s extended closure earlier this year.   Illinois Resident Free Days will look different than previous years, as Shedd has adopted several stringent measures to ensure guests have a safe and enjoy-able visit due to COVID-19. This includes a severely limited building capacity, timed-ticketing, one-directional pathways throughout the building, mandatory face coverings, readily available hand sanitizer stations and more.   Most notably, guests looking to take advantage of the free admission must secure their tickets in advance via Shedd’s website, www.sheddaquarium.org or by phone, 312-939-2438.. Free admission will not be granted to guests who walk up without a reservation.   While the aquarium is now open to guests, financial support remains critical to Shedd’s continued success. Beyond planning a visit, there are several ways that the public can make a contribution to fuel Shedd’s mission.   All adults must provide proof of residency in-person when redeeming tickets at the discounted rate. For the latest information about the aquarium hours and discounts, please visit our “Plan a Visit” page on our website at www.shed-daquarium.org or call 312-939-2438.   Please note: A $3 transaction fee applies to Illinois Resident Free Day tickets reserved online. This helps ensure access to as many neighbors as possible by validating orders.
