EDITORS NOTE The Autumn Issue | The Art Issue: ART + FASHION
This issue content came very naturally to me because it is the marriage of two genres that perfectly weave through our daily life. It is what I do, it is what I live and how I am being. Just being in those daily moments can create our own art. We are delighted to feature our Art Gallery (p. 9) of some select pieces that we’ve illustrated over the past year. As the weather cools and we spend more time inside, you can be sure that we will have more art work to share with you. Art Spotlight this month Anna Heyward Taylor (p. 17) Key Aesthetics Founding Editor

Three Ways to Invest
1. DIY Style? Pick an online trading platform. For the person who likes to take matters in their own hands, you may want to consider Charles Schwab online or Acorns. Open an E-Trade account or invest your left over change for them to invest in high yield stocks for you. 2. Open an IRA When you open an IRA you have options of where to invest your money and how much you can earn over 1, 5 or 10 years. Roth IRA is money you already paid taxes on. Maximum investment is $5,500 per year into the Roth IRA. Traditional IRA is pre-tax money and you defer taxes until retirement. 3. CD Set up automatic transfers from your bank account to an investment or CD account (high yielding savings account). Take a percentage of your paycheck and do it automatically so you don’t have control.

AUTUMN
AUTUMN We fall for Autumn every year. While we love Summer and the ever warmth feelings, we quickly adapt to a comfy sweater and a fireplace. Of course while the weather cools it causes you to slow down a bit and stay a bit indoors. Keeping the balance can be delicate concept for some. We realize not everyone likes to be a home body (like us). Nonetheless, being balance has essential life sustaining properties along with cultivating healthy and purposeful living. Enjoy Autumn.

A U T U M N Evenings
What we are Reading
1. Tony & Susan Suspensive, rivoting thriller-ish of two stories in one. Keeps you on the edge.
2. The Italian Teacher Author, Tom Rachman examines a life lived in the shadow of greatness. When father, Bear dies, Pinch hatches a scheme to secure his father's legacy-and make his own mark on the world.
3. blink Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, about choices that seem to be made in an instant-in the blink of an eye-that actually aren't as simple as they seem.
4. The Outliers The author asks and answers the question: what makes high-achievers different? Answer depends on where they are from: that is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing. KeyAestheticsMagazine.com
