Paying for Retirement Is Major Concern

More and more of us are concerned about how we’re going to pay for retirement, or whether can retire at all, especially as the economy has soured. The Society of Actuaries recently issued a report entitled “The Impact of the Economy on Retirement Risks” about how we’re handling our fears.

Here are some facts its survey uncovered:• Nearly half of those polled who have not yet re-

tired are very concerned about retirement finances, much more so than ever before.

• Two-thirds of retirees surveyed say their fi-nances are worse than before the economy took a downturn, with a quarter saying “much worse.” For those not yet retired, the figures are even higher. Those who banked on having return from invest-ments have suffered from low interest rates, and those who considered their home a “nest egg” for retirement money are hard hit.

• A quarter of retirees fear they might need to return to work, while two-thirds who haven’t retired think they’ll need to work longer.

• People who haven’t yet retired have more concerns than those who have already retired. The

major concerns are paying for long-term health care, the falling value of investments, running out of money, inability to maintain a standard of living and not having anything to leave to heirs.

• Seniors have more debt than they expected to have at retirement. But if there’s a retirement strategy the majority agreed on, it’s this: Get rid of consumer and mortgage debt before retirement by paying off credit cards and cutting back on spend-ing for gifts, vacation and restaurants.

If you want to see how you compare to others in this survey, go to www.soa.org and put the name of the report in the quick search box.

June 16 - 22, 2011

Let us consider the strange case of Richard Childress and Kyle Busch.

Childress is the last vestige -- full-time, anyway -- of old school in NASCAR team ownership. He and Dale Earnhardt made a perfect match. Childress interacted as easily with Bud Moore and Junior Johnson as he now does with Rick

Hendrick and Roger Penske. Childress's success is grounded in the way that he man-ages to bridge the generations.

The younger Busch brother is Thoroughly Modern Kyle. He is wondrously talented and self-centered. Sometimes people insist on comparing him to Earnhardt, which is akin to comparing Tim Linecum to Bob Gibson. If Kyle Busch is his generation's Dale Earnhardt, his generation has really changed.

Though I rather like both men, they obviously do not care for each other.I like Childress for the qualities described above. This former racer, who built his

empire by hand, is about as adept as dealing with the media as anyone I've encountered. He has an instinctive knack for handling the various issues that confront his team.

I like Kyle Busch because he isn't a phony. I may disagree with him. In fact, at times, I may consider him a brat. But he isn't afraid to be himself, and has the strength of conviction not to worry unduly about what others think. He adds spice to NASCAR. The sport needs a bad boy. The NFL needs the Oakland Raiders (and some even remember them).

As sensible as Childress is, and as closely watched as Kyle Busch is, somehow things went crazy after the Camping World Truck Series race in Kansas. Busch's Toyota had traded licks with a Childress Chevy, one driven by Joey Coulter, and then Busch had roughed up the kid a bit during the cool-down lap. Busch had roughed up another Childress Chevy, the one assigned to Busch's foil Kevin Harvick, after a Sprint Cup race at Darlington.

The latter incident apparently led the 65-year-old Childress to mutter, or think, something along the lines of "enough is enough," probably with at least one epithet added. Apparently, the resulting incident wasn't caught on tape, so it may be something like the dime novels of the Old West. Though what happened may be exaggerated, it can reliably be reported that Childress, in some form, attacked Busch.

Childress, being Childress, apparently handled the situation that arose after the situation -- that being his closed-door meeting with NASCAR officials -- with char-acteristic aplomb, having had time to retrieve his right mind. He paid a fine, and they put him on probation.

Probation. Let me define it for the umpteenth time. In NASCAR, it's a serious-sounding word that means "nothing." Here's one more shred of evidence.

Long before handing down the slap to Chil-dress's wrist, NASCAR ab-solved Busch of blame. On race morning at Kan-sas Speedway, word spread that Busch's actions "would not affect his probation."

How can this be so?

Busch was on

Gramps vs. the Brat

probation for his role in an incident in which he bumped another car after the Darling-ton race. How could bumping another, well, truck, after a Kansas race "not affect his probation"?

I'm not after Kyle Busch. I figure he's got enough of a headache with M&Ms, one of his sponsors (do they melt in your mouth, or do you get belted in the mouth?), without having another meaningless level of probation thrown in.

But the whole reaction makes NASCAR look, yet again, like a mountain.A mountain of Jell-O.

• It was philosopher, historian, mathematician and Nobel Prize winner Bertrand Russell who made the following sage observation: "In all affairs it's a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted."

• The giant Pacific octopus, the largest octopus in the world, is a prolific breeder. Extremely prolific. The female lays approximately 56,000 eggs, all at once. And since, according to experts, the population is stable, of those 56,000 eggs, only two survive to reproduce.

• It was Franklin Pierce, the 14th president of the United States, who ordered the White House's first bathtub in the 1850s.

• Harry Houdini is best known as a magician and an escape artist, but he also performed amazing stunts. In the early days of aviation, he flew in an airplane to an altitude of 3,000 feet, then jumped off the plane onto another one -- while wearing handcuffs.

• A recent study conducted by researchers at a university in Sweden found that if a person has to commute longer than 45 minutes to work, he or she is 40 percent more likely to get divorced.

• There are more languages and dialects spoken in India than in any other country in the world: in excess of 1,600 at last count.

• If you're planning a trip to Marrakesh, Morocco, be sure to visit the Koutoubiya minaret. In 1195 Sultan Yakub al Mansur commanded that the minaret be built in thanksgiving for a military victory, and the tower is lovely. The structure's unique attribute, however, is not visible -- it's olfactory. When the minaret was being built, 960 sacks of musk were mixed in with the mortar, and the odor can still be detected today.



Puzzle Answers

Recently, I spoke with Dr. Karen "Doc" Hal-ligan, a veterinarian and author who has appeared on shows like "The Today Show" and "Animal Rescue 911." She is the author of "What Every Pet Owner Should Know: Prescriptions for Happy, Healthy Cats and Dogs."

Foremost on my mind was on how pet owners who are financially challenged -- whether seniors on a fixed income, unemployed or otherwise hav-ing difficulties -- could continue to keep their pets healthy. In addition to stressing the importance of preventive care, Halligan urges owners to tell their vet if they're having money problems.

"I tell owners, be up front with your vet," says Halligan. "Say (that) money is a factor. Don't come in there and think that we're going to change the way we treat your pet because you tell us you can't afford it. That's not the case. We need to know if you're on a fixed income ... [to] come up with a game plan to keep your pet as healthy as possible and try to save you money."

Affordable Pet CareBy Sam Mazzotta

Here are a few tips from Halligan on affordably keeping pets healthy:

--Flea and tick prevention in summer is para-mount. Look for the first generic drug for pets, www.petarmor.com/PetArmor Plus, a topical solution that costs half as much as Frontline. It's available from vets as well as at Wal-Mart and Sam's Club.

--Keep vaccinations up to date: diseases like parvo can be fatal to pets, but are completely preventable.

--Pets need annual checkups: "Animals age 7 years in 1 year," says Doc. "If you (only) take them every three years, that's like 21 years (between checkups)."

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Our grandson soon will be 15. He still wets the bed. His parents have done everything from pills to alarms, but noth-ing helps. Sometimes he gets depressed, and that scares us. He says he will never be able to have a relationship with a girl. Sometimes we worry that he will hurt himself. Is there anything that can help this situation? -- W.M.

ANSWER: I feel deeply for your grandson. No one can understand the isolation and hopelessness he has to grapple with. He could stand professional counseling. Perhaps a few facts will help him. Be-tween the ages of 5 and 6, 15 percent to 20 per-cent of children are still wetting the bed. Of that number, every following year, 15 percent will stay dry during the night. By age 18, only 1 percent to 2 percent of these youngsters are still battling the problem. Your grandson has three years in which his chances of gaining control are good.

The problem of bed-wetting appears to stem from a brain that doesn’t respond to a full night-time bladder by rousing the sleeper. It might be a delay in developing that response. Or it might be a delay in the attainment of a large enough bladder

capacity to hold nighttime urine production. Or it might be that these children produce too little of the hormone vasopressin, which suppresses nightly urine formation.

Your grandson can once more try things he prob-ably has already tried. He should measure carefully how much fluid he drinks in one day. Once he learns that number, he should drink 40 percent of the total in the morning, another 40 percent in the afternoon and limit fluid to 20 percent of the daily total from 5 p.m. on. He can increase his bladder’s capacity by holding off on urinating during the day. If he delays each time by five or 10 minutes for one week and then gradually lengthens the delay in following weeks, the bladder will stretch. This takes time. He has to be patient.

Alarms can work. They sound or vibrate when the first few drops of moisture touch them. It can be as long as six months of use before the training takes hold.

For occasions when he is invited to stay at other people’s homes for the night, desmopressin, as a pill or nasal spray, slows nighttime urine production.

• • •DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I am so concerned

about our grandson. He is a senior in college. He felt he couldn’t focus well enough on some of his difficult classes. He went to a doctor and was put on Adderall.

I am so wor-ried that he will become addicted. Should I be con-cerned? -- R.G.

ANSWER: Adderall is a drug of the am-phetamine fam-ily. It does have the potential of leading to depen-dence. However, it’s been used for so many years for the treatment of attention-defi-cit hyperactivity disorder that it can be well man-aged and not

Bed-Wetting Deeply Affects Children

present a danger.The doctor who prescribed the drug is responsible

for monitoring how it is used. He or she will continue writing for its use only if it’s safe to do so.

I sincerely believe you do not have to worry yourself about your grandson.

• • •Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual

letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475.

Brigid Brannagh

spoke with Brigid Brannagh, who plays Pamela on the hit series, and she gave me the scoop: “We were all like, ‘Make this episode stop.’ It was so upsetting. And I’ve been to enough funerals where ‘Taps’ was played, and just hearing that song evokes so many things. It’s impossible not to feel completely consumed with melancholy when ‘Taps’ comes on.

We’ve met all these soldiers, heard stories and met people who have lost soldiers,” she said. “We’ve been so surrounded by this world, by this military Army life for all of these years, that you just think about a soldier that you love gone, and he’s just a boy. It tore all of us up. Watching Terry Serpico (who plays Jeremy’s father) walk in and trying not to cry -- oh my God, it was ter-rible. It was just heart wrenching all the time. But we all really appreciated what it was. It was just a long day shoot.”

10 REASONSWhy Isagenix® is Your Anti-Aging Solution1. SLOW AGING FROM THE INSIDE OUTIsagenix Nutritional Cleansing and Replenishing™ products help eliminate harmful toxins and impurities from the body that can accelerate the aging process. These products also replenish the body with crucial nutrients for optimal health. The Rejuvity and other anti-aging products also address the need for optimal cellular nutrition that ultimately creates a new level of wellness, vitality, and youthful appearance from the inside out.

2. ADDRESS AGING ON ALL FRONTS-NOT JUST SKINThe skin is largely an indication of how the body is aging. If the body has been abused, neglected and malnourished, then the skin will reflect this. However, if the body’s cells, tissues and organs are protected from harmful pollutants and replenished with crucial nutrients, the skin will reflect this level of health by appearing vibrant, glowing and youthful.

3. NO HARSH CHEMICALS OR IRRITANTSThe anti-aging products in the Rejuvity and IsaDermix® lines do not use any harsh, irritating chemicals or compounds, including phthalates or parabens. Other common products that include harsh compounds often require downtime and may damage the skin further.

4. PROMOTE SKIN’S NATURAL PROCESSESAgeless Renewal Serum and other anti-aging skin products help minimize the appearance of deep wrinkles, support collagen production, improve elasticity and tone, and increase firmness by helping the skin remember what it has forgotten as we age.

5. BOOST ENERGY, VITALITY, AND OVERALL HEALTHIn addition to the superior skin care, Rejuvity and other Isagenix Nutritional Cleansing and Replenishing products slow biological aging of the entire body, leading to enhanced energy and a new level of vitality and improved overall wellness.6. SUPPORTED BY SCIENCEAll of the ingredients in Rejuvity and the other Isagenix anti-aging and replenishing products are supported by scientific research. In addition, many of the company’s own products - including Ageless Renewal Serum - have been specifically investigated in scientific trials with extremely positive results. A recent trial on Ageless Renewal Serum showed a 92% increase in the overall improvement of the skin, and the CoQ10 used in Ageless Actives has been shown to be 800% more absorbable than standard powder forms used in other products.

7. SUPERIOR QUALITYIsagenix prides itself in using only the highest quality ingredients. With Rejuvity and other anti-aging product lines, this commitment to quality continues.8. UNMATCHED INGREDIENT FORMULATIONSAll of the Isagenix product lines boast unmatched ingredient profiles you can’t find in any other product. These include the growth factors, polypeptides and actives in Ageless Renewal Serum, the lipid-based CoQ10 in Ageless Actives, and many more.

9. ISAGENIX IS AHEAD OF THE CURVEThe Isagenix Quality, Regulatory, Technology, Science (QRTS) teams use the latest scientific research to create life-changing products, thus solidifying its position as an industry leader.
