    My father taught me

    many great lessons.

    There were three

    important elements of life that

    I learned from my father;

    patience, faith and love. My

    father held a great deal of love

    in his heart for my mom, my sis-

    ter, and I. He dearly loved his

    parents, sister, and seven broth-

    ers. He held a great love in his

    heart for America, Lincoln

    Park, the scouting movement,

    his church, and his work. In

    1960 Dad began working as a

    long-distance truck driver for

    Main Trucking and Rigging, in

    Elmwood Park. He worked

    there for nearly 30 years, retir-

    Interesting when you ponder

    this phrase for a moment

    isnt it? Stated differently,

    unless their wealth was inherit-

    ed, no one became financially

    independent without assuming

    some form of risk with their

    capital during their lifetime.

    Whether investing in the stock

    market, real estate or a business,

    there was a risk requirement

    necessary to achieve greater

    than normal returns required to

    become a millionaire. But,

    what about the consequences

    of taking that risk? Can you

    afford the risk of losing your

    hard earned capital? I ask, Can

    you afford not to invest with a

    greater degree of risk to receive

    the potential for a greater

    return?Readers, let me bring you

    back to the first rule of financial

    planning and wealth building:

    The rule of 72! This rule sim-

    ply tells you at a given rate of

    return how long it will take to

    double your money. By dividing

    the rate of return into the num-

    ber 72, the revealing number is

    how many years it will take the

    deposit to double. At a 1%

    interest rate an investment

    made today will double in 72

    years. At 6% the doubling peri-

    od is reduced to 12 years and

    10% equates to 7.2 years. The

    reverse is also true. Money bor-

    rowed at a 10% rate of interest

    will double the debt in 7.2 years

    if no payments are made.

    Substituting 115 for 72 in our

    equation, will tell you how

    many years it will take to triple

    your money.

    Let me ask you to further

    ponder on this question:Assuming you will need

    $50,000 annually from your

    portfolio during your retire-

    ment years to supplement

    Social Security and a 5% with-

    drawal rate, 20 years from

    today. Starting with nothing

    down, how much will you have

    to save each month for the next

    20 years to accumulate the $1

    million goal necessary to pro-

    duce the $50,000 in annual

    retirement income if you are

    able to receive a 4% annual

    rate of return on your money

    each year? The answer is

    $2,726. Most people cannot

    afford to devote that much to a

    retirement plan and still pay

    their monthly mortgage, so lets

    take a bit more risk to achieve a

    hypothetical 8% return. The

    monthly requirement falls to

    $1,697 which, is still a hefty

    requirement for most. But, if

    you decide to postpone yourretirement for another 5 years

    and can achieve the same 8%

    annual return, the monthly

    requirement falls to only

    $1,051. The investor that

    would be lucky enough to

    achieve a 12% compounded

    annual rate of return would

    need to invest only $532 per

    month to achieve the same

    $1,000,000 goal in 25 years.

    Our conversation doesnt

    take into account, adjusted

    for inflation, what will

    $1,000,000 be worth in 25 years

    and how much more difficult it

    would be to accumulate a port-

    folio to produce $50,000 in

    2014 dollars, so Ill tell you. A

    3% annual inflation rate would

    devalue our $1,000,000 goal tobe worth only $467,000 in

    2014 dollars, so basically speak-

    ing, your required investment

    would double to create a sum

    that is twice as much to give

    you the equivalent of a $50,000

    annual income today.

    Unfortunately, however, infla-

    tion will not be finished in 25

    years, so the annual $50,000

    income will need to be

    increased as well in order to

    have the same purchasing

    power. This poses a very inter-

    esting proposition that even

    though in retirement your port-

    folio must produce income, it

    cannot do so at the expense of

    growth. The portfolio must

    grow and produce income

    simultaneously! Do you know

    how to do this? Can it be done?

    If so, can one guarantee* suc-cess, meaning providing an

    income that increases over the

    retirement years that will never

    cease for husband and wife,

    even though the principal

    might become exhausted due to

    their longevity and success-

    ive increasing withdrawals?

    Answer is, yes and in my opin-

    ion should be examined by

    every reader of this column.

    Lets go back to the accu-

    mulation years for a moment.

    Though there are no guaran-

    tees to secure an 8 or a 12% rate

    of return, might one guarantee*

    a somewhat lesser rate of return

    yet be positioned for greater

    possibilities, simultaneously,

    when the stock market has a

    stupendous month or year?That answer is also yes and

    needs to be explored by those

    people who want to enjoy a

    guaranteed* retirement income

    that will never be reduced or

    cease until both husband and

    wife are gone. Further enhance-

    ments are possible that may

    guarantee a death benefit to

    children and grandchildren

    when the parents are no longer

    here.

    Regardless of your invest-

    ment preferences, it is univer-

    sally understood that fixed

    principal, interest only generat-

    ing savings vehicles, especially

    at todays rates, cannot build a

    portfolio that in the future will

    sustain a couple until death.

    Proactive financial behavior is

    necessary today to create and

    grow your portfolio in order tobe self-sufficient in the future. I

    encourage you to learn about

    your options and opportunities

    risk-free and fee-free by calling

    for an appointment. You may

    be severely impressed and

    amazed at what you will learn

    but, more importantly, how to

    apply the knowledge to best

    benefit your personal situation.

    There is no minimum net-

    worth requirement to meet

    with any American Prosperity

    Group representative across the

    country! I hope to hear from

    you soon.

    A

    nthropological evi-

    dence suggests that

    ancient cultures prac-ticed regular oral hygiene.

    Researchers have found recipes

    for teeth cleaning and breath

    freshening preparations that

    date to ancient Egyptian,

    Chinese, Greek and Roman

    peoples. The ingredients

    included charcoal, fruit and

    dried flowers, but theres no

    credible evidence about effec-

    tiveness of these products.

    Oral care products first

    appeared when toothpaste was

    developed in the 1800s.

    Mouthwash was mass produced

    commercially in the late 1800s.

    The early brands contained

    alcohol to stabilize the formula,

    but today cetylpyridnium chlo-

    ride(CPC) is the germ killing

    product that doesnt need alco-

    hol stabilization and is found in

    many healthcare products. Its

    germ killing ability is altered forkilling germs that cause dental

    plaque and gingivitis.

    There are now mouth

    rinses for special needs such as

    alcohol free, sensitive mouths,

    braces and natural formulas.

    The scientific evidence

    remains limited to improving

    breath and preventing plaque

    buildup.

    No mouthwash is a

    replacement for a regular oral

    care routine of twice daily

    brushing and flossing. Mouth

    rinse should always be used

    with a daily routine of oral

    hygiene to maintain good den-

    tal health.

    With the holidays

    here, we are all in

    the mood for some

    festivities. We plan parties and

    cook for celebrations, but what

    do our pups do? They are still

    the same clever, curious rascal

    they ever were. Something

    that the holiday season does

    bring some puppy hazards.

    Everyone wants to enjoy the

    holidays without a single hic-

    cup, so make sure that you

    make your home holiday safe

    for dogs.

    Seasonal decorations.

    The holidays bring about a

    variety of color and light that

    make the atmosphere look

    quite magnificent. But beware

    of nosy pups with mischief on

    the mind. Power cords can be

    very dangerous for a pup that

    likes to chew. Make sure they

    are hidden out of reach so no

    one gets hurt. Besides lighting,

    we often decorate our homes

    with pretty plants such as

    mistletoe, poinsettia and holly.

    Unfortunately, all these plants

    are actually very toxic espe-

    cially for dogs. Consider going

    with a synthetic likeness that

    looks just as pretty. (And you

    can use it again next year

    save some money!) Besides the

    house decorations, presents

    often get decorated, too.

    Wrapping paper is fun for bothman and dog, but we dont usu-

    ally eat it. A pup may find it

    quite tasty, but will likely just

    end up with a belly-ache.

    Hot dog. Candles make

    the house look and smell nice,

    but there is a bit of a hazard to

    this. A happy tail or a nosy

    snout can knock a candle over

    and burn your pup or catch

    something on fire. If you have

    candles, keep them up high

    and never leave the home

    without making sure theyre

    out. Another concern is the

    fireplace. Those flickering

    flames can intrigue a curious

    pup, so make sure you use a

    fireplace protector or screen to

    keep any noses from beingsinged.

    Time for eats. The festivi-

    ties and food are going to be

    almost every dogs weakness.

    Honestly, who can resist a tasty

    piece of whats cooking? Items

    on the table top left unattend-

    ed can make a likely target for

    an eager pup, so keep things

    out of reach and no paws on

    the table. Unfortunately, dogs

    arent always the culprit.

    Sometimes theyre just the vic-

    tim of some sneaky hands that

    tossed them a spoonful off their

    plate. Make sure that everyone

    knows not to feed the pup, and

    if you dont want to take anychances, put your pup some-

    where where they wont be

    tempted. Dont forget to give

    them their own snacks and toys

    to enjoy.

    The table top isnt the

    only place a sneaky snout

    might wander. After all is

    How do I choose where to go for VeinTreatment?

    The vein treatment I received was great. I am very happy with theprocedures done on my legs. I wish I had done this earlier.

    In todays competitive

    medical environment, it

    seems there are many

    physicians offering vein

    care as a part of their

    overall practices. The list

    includes virtually all specialties, and most

    advertise themselves as Vein Special-

    ists, even though they may not have re-

    ceived any specialized training in vein

    procedures.

    Choosing where to go for vein treat-

    ment may be just as important as the

    initial decision to seek treatment. Here

    are a few basic ideas that might help

    you decide.

    THE TREATING PHYSICIAN

    Did you know that taking a moment to

    check the credentials of your physician is

    a valuable first step? While many doctors

    may claim to be experts, only a qualified

    vein specialist has the broad knowledgeof your venous system to accurately diag-

    nose the causes of your venous condi-

    tion. A qualified vein specialist has the ex-

    perience, expertise and the necessary

    equipment to treat your varicose veins

    with exactly the right procedures tailored

    to your specific problem. Many part time

    phlebologists (a medical specialist trained

    in the diagnosis and treatment of disor-

    ders of venous origin), offer only 1-2

    modalities of therapy.

    THE VEIN CENTER

    Are the facilities attractive and clean?

    Do the Center personnel present a pro-

    fessional demeanor? Vein specialists

    generally do all their diagnostic work

    and perform their procedures right in

    their vein center locations; so the ap-

    pearance of the office can tell you a lot

    about the practice. Ask if there are Reg-

    istered Vascular Technologist (RVT) ul-

    trasound technicians on site. RVT techs

    are the most credentialed professionals

    to perform ultrasound-guided diagnos-tics as part of the evaluation process.

    Circa 2008. My wife

    and I operated a pro-

    gram called Adopt a

    Child, whose objective was

    to provide children from abu-

    sive homes with gifts for

    Christmas. The program was

    designed to match a child in

    need with someone willing toprovide a gift(s), as best as

    they could, per the childs

    Christmas wish. From 1996 to

    2008 the program provided

    20,000 children with roughly

    50,000 gifts. In 2000, we

    received the Volunteer of the

    Year award in New Jersey.

    But something just didnt

    feel right. The question we

    had to ask ourselves was Is

    this program really making a

    difference? The honest

    answer was yes, but not as we

    had originally intended. It was

    a good program, but not a

    great one.

    We decided to stop in2008 and while I knew it

    would hurt some folks, I also

    understood it had to be done.

    Shortly thereafter I sensed a

    call to serve men, helping

    them to be what they were

    created to be. Legacy Minded

    Men was born and the impact

    it has had on many men and

    their families can be described

    as transformational.

    Think about it

    Sometimes you have to

    trade something that is good

    to do something that is great!

    Perhaps there is a trade

    you should consider? What

    do you think?

    Whether leaving

    cookies out for

    Santa or simply

    spreading some holiday cheer

    among family and friends, the

    following recipe for Soft

    Glazed Gingerbread from

    Elizabeth M. Prueitt and Chad

    Robertsons Tartine is sure to

    please this holiday season.

    Soft Glazed Gingerbread

    Dough3 cups all-purpose flour

    1 tab cocoa powder

    4 tea ground ginger

    1 tea ground cloves

    2 tea ground cinnamon

    tea baking soda

    1 tea salt

    1 tea black pepper, freshly

    ground

    1 cup unsalted butter, at room

    temperature

    cup plus 2 tablespoons gran-

    ulated sugar

    1 large egg

    cup blackstrap or other dark

    molasses

    2 tab light corn syrup

    Glaze

    1 cup confectioners sugar

    2 tab water

    To make the dough, stirtogether the flour, cocoa pow-

    der, ginger, cloves, cinnamon,

    baking soda, salt, and pepper in

    a mixing bowl. Set aside. Using

    a stand mixer fitted with the

    paddle attachment, beat the

    butter on medium-high speed

    until creamy. Slowly add the

    granulated sugar and mix on

    medium speed until the mix-

    ture is completely smooth and

    soft. Stop the mixer and scrape

    down the sides of the bowl with

    a rubber spatula as needed. Add

    the egg and mix well.

    Add the molasses and

    corn syrup and beat until incor-

    porated. Stop the mixer again

    and scrape down the sides of

    the bowl. Add the flour mix-

    ture and beat on low speed

    until a dough forms that pulls

    away from the sides of the bowl

    and all the ingredientsare well incorporated. Remove

    the dough from the bowl, flat-

    ten it on a large piece of plastic

    wrap into a rectangle about 1

    inch thick, cover the dough

    with plastic wrap, and refriger-

    ate over-night.

    Preheat the oven to 350 F.

    Line a baking sheet with parch-

    ment paper or a non-

    stick liner.

    Unwrap the dough

    and place on a floured

    work surface. If using a

    plaque with a design, roll

    out the dough 1/3-inch

    thick, lightly dust the top

    with flour, press your

    cookie molds over the

    dough, and then cut the

    shapes with a small knifeand place on the prepared bak-

    ing sheet, spacing them about 1

    inch apart. Alternatively, using

    the mold as a guide, cut around

    it with a small knife, flip the

    mold over so the design is fac-

    ing you, and place the dough

    over it, pressing it into the

    ing in June of 1989. One of thedearest and fondest memories I

    have of how Dad loved his job,

    centered upon how serious he

    took his responsibility of bring-

    ing the people of New York

    City their Christmas Tree for

    many, many years. Truly the

    elements of patience, faith, andlove shined forth from the core

    of Dads heart in carrying out

    this big job.

    Usually around the mid-

    dle of October, Dads boss

    would let Dad know where he

    would have to pick up the

    Christmas Tree to be deliveredin Manhattan. I remember

    those evenings, after supper,

    Dad would sit at the dining

    room table and quietly study

    maps of roads, highways, and

    byways from Maine to New

    York City. I distinctly remem-

    ber that nine out of ten times,

    New Yorks Christmas Tree

    came from Maine. When I was

    in grammar school, high

    school, and even my first twoyears of college, I always

    enjoyed the time period of

    studying and doing my home-

    work at the dining room table

    while Dad routed his trip.

    I would be studying U.S.

    history, doing math problems,

    or studying chemistry and Dad

    would say to me, almost had

    it. This bridge on this road is

    going to be too low. Or he

    would say, well never be able

    to get permits to bring a wide

    load through this little town.

    Then Dad would start all over

    again, working on figuring a

    way to bring New York City its

    Christmas Tree. Dads example

    taught me the principle of the

    good value of patience.

    Sometimes I would getstuck on a math problem, or on

    a chemistry problem, or just be

    having a tough time in writing

    a composition. Dad would look

    up from his maps and say some-

    thing like, Richie, it looks like

    youre stuck on a problem. I

    would tell Dad that, yes I was

    having a tough time with a

    math problem. Dad would say,

    dont worry about it, youll get

    it. It just takes patience.

    Dads annual responsibili-ty to bring New York City its

    Christmas Tree was a golden

    opportunity for him to teach

    me the power of positive faith.

    So many times I remember Dad

    would call home while he was

    in Maine or New Hampshire

    staying over while the work-

    men prepared the incredibly

    tall pine tree for its destiny

    to be Americas showcase

    Christmas Tree. Dad would ask

    Mom to put me on the phone.Even when I was in grammar

    school and then into high

    school, he would tell me that

    he was counting on me to be

    the man of the house while he

    was away.

    Sometimes Dad would get

    snowed in, or held up by a

    problem, or simply have to

    reroute the trip because of a

    surprise little bridge in some

    small town that wasnt clearly

    defined on any of the maps.

    Richie, it looks like Im

    going to be held up here. Its

    snowing pretty heavy. You

    know how to change the fuses

    down the cellar if any of them

    burn out. Im counting on you

    son. I have faith in you

    Richie, Dad would say to me

    over the phone. I remember

    that 90 percent of the time,Dad would finish his long dis-

    tance phone call by telling me

    that he had faith in me. I know

    that Dad held a strong faith in

    the good Lord. Often when he

    got caught in snow in bringing

    the tall pine tree to

    Manhattan, he would say to me

    over the phone, Richie, Ive

    got faith the good Lord is going

    to help get this tree to New

    York City in time. Dad never

    once was late in delivering

    New York City its big

    Christmas Tree.

    And of course, Dad lovedhis job. He truly loved working

    with people, talking with peo-

    ple, and having a purpose to

    bring New York City its

    Christmas Tree. And, I know

    Dad truly loved the Lord.

    Today, in memory, I look

    back with fondness of heart of

    those innocent days when Dad

    and I would spend so muchtime together studying at the

    old dining room table. On May

    twelfth of 2006, my father went

    home to be with the Lord.

    Since then, not a day has gone

    by that I havent thought of

    him. Id give up everything I

    ever worked hard for, every-

    thing, to spend just five min-

    utes with my Dad at that olddining room table.

    Sometimes, I feel my

    heart is going to break when I

    hear a parent complain about

    their child. Or, when I hear a

    child complain about a parent.

    Life upon this earth is short. It

    really is. Forgive people when

    they hurt you. Throw your

    grudges out to sea and let the

    tide sweep them away. Love

    one another. Tell the peopleyou love that you love them.

    For truly, none of us have any

    guarantees for tomorrow.

    design. Unmold the shapes

    onto the prepared baking

    sheet, leaving about 1 inch

    between them.

    Bake the cookies until

    lightly golden along the sides

    but still soft to the touch in

    the centers, 7 to 15 minutes.

    The timing will depend on

    the size of the individual

    cookies, or if you have made asingle large patterned piece

    that will be cut after baking.

    While the cookies are

    baking, prepare the glaze. In a

    small bowl, whisk together the

    confectioners sugar and water

    until smooth.

    When the cookies are

    ready, remove from the oven

    and let cool on the pan on a

    wire rack for about 10 min-

    utes. Then, while the cookies

    are still warm, using evenstrokes, brush a light coat of

    glaze on top of each cookie,

    evenly covering it. Let the

    cookies cool completely.

    When the glaze dries, it

    should leave a shiny, opaque

    finish. The cookies will keep

    in an airtight container in a

    cool place for about 2 weeks.

    They do not freeze well, how-

    ever, as glaze becomes watery

    when they are thawed. Yields:

    12-20 cookies.
