Recovery from the pandemic for the travel industry is a work in progress, but inbound arrivals around the world increased by more than 80% this year in terms of numbers of trips. That means people are breaking out their passports again, and some cities are drawing travelers in droves.

Euromonitor International looked at 100 cities around the globe, using metrics in categories including tourism policy and performance, infrastructure, health and safety, economic performance, and sustainability. Europe emerges as the big winner, with Paris taking the rankings’ No. 1 spot, and seven other European cities also making the top 10. The only US city that made that elite group? New York, squeaking in at No. 10.

Here are those top 10 cities: 1. Paris 2. Dubai 3. Amsterdam 4. Madrid 5. Rome

Dine With Us

Restaurant owners who are still feeling the pinch of the economy and uncertainty over the postseason holidays can jumpstart their eateries by participating in a brand-new endeavor to attract customers.

The new Shop in RI Magazine’s “Dine With Us” initiative allows restaurants throughout Rhode Island to employ a team devoted to serving their marketing communications needs. The team of Jim Lombari (sales and publishing), Jenn Lombari (sales and writing), Anthony Cascio (printing), Guillermo Garcia (website development, social media, and photography), Owen Head (videography), Bob Crudale (promotional items), and Mark Berger (public and media relations) are combining their respective talents to provide these and other small industry owners the opportunity to help swing customers that way.

Lombari said that his mantra of “shop local” should be the consumer battle cry year round.

people going out to eateries. The numbers dropped significantly after the pandemic. While it may have inched up slowly in the following years, there is still trepidation amongst families and groups feeling safe when they go out.

The services this team will provide includes the creation of graphic materials that will be published in the client’s official social media platforms, as well as the preparation of boosted posts and video materials.

That is where this initiative can help by using Head’s videography skills to visually tell a story, Garcia’s ability to build a website, or using the other members and their skill sets to reflect a different look and feel to encourage patrons to visit their site.

“We can lay the foundation for restaurants to pick themselves up and prosper. From there, it’s up to the restaurants to work towards returning and thriving,” Lombari said.

“I am out there every day, and I see first-hand how small businesses are hurting,” he said. “Many owners need a lifeline, and our team is here to give them a much-needed boost. We have an expert team waiting to get restaurants and other struggling companies back on their feet.”

Shop in RI Magazine grew and started to produce advertising and editorial content to promote all the local eateries in the state. The Magazine caters to promoting the full-service advertising needs of its customers, both within and outside the state.

This team concept came about while Lombari understood a growing problem. Before the holidays began, he witnessed an alarming trend of fewer

Off The Vine 45: Nana’s Kickass Sauce

By Jenn Lombari The art of canning and preserving has been practiced for centuries; at first out of necessity, and later as a hobby and continuation of family traditions. Warwick based, Off The Vine 45, is a terrific example of how a family tradition can be so much more.

Farmer Bob, Bob Chevian, was given the name by his children because he was spending so much time in his vegetable garden. His late mother in-law, taught him how to garden and preserve.

All of the recipes that he is making are hers. He originally spent thirty years as a cabinet maker and woodworker. In January of 2022, he made the decision to turn a hobby into a business. He learned a lot along the way and is still learning. “ I didn’t know so much was required to process food!” He learned about and acquired his licenses and certifications with guidance from the RI Department Of Health and learned an abundance of useful information from some very helpful folks along the way.

Cake Jam (no nuts), Jalapeño Spread, and they also carry dehydrated hot pepper pods.

Why stop there!? The new year will bring several new products to the Off The Vine family. Zucchini Relish, Apple Butter, Strawberry Topping, and a Spicy Chicken Coating are all in the process of being perfected and packaged for public consumption.

He just knew he had something special. “I spent many years growing my own vegetables and cooking them. Then I started giving them out to friends and family. So one day I decided to make a go at it as a business opportunity.

All of the products made are 100% natural. No chemicals or preservatives. Nothing beats local produce, so when it’s available and in season, that is Farmer Bob’s go-to ingredient. In the winter months, he is using local food suppliers.

And that was a fantastic decision!

Some favorite combos to use with Nana’s Kicks Sauce products:

Nana’s Kickass Sauce makes a variety of sauces, jams, jellies, and spreads; all made in small batches to bring the customer that homemade taste. At this present time, Farmer Bob is making nine different products: Apple Sauce, Tomato Sauce, Hot Sauce, Strawberry Jelly, Ghost Pepper Jelly, Carrot Cake Jam, Carrot 10Shop ShopInInRIRI 10

Pork chops with their apple sauce.

Their hot sauce really brings out the bang in chicken wings or chicken tenders.

Strawberry jelly on an all American PB&J is always a home run!

Any of the hot jellies will compliment any cheese and cracker board.

The best seller is the carrot cake jam. It goes well on toasted muffins and bagels,. It’s like desert in a jar. It’s by far my favorite! I enjoyed it on an asiago cheese bagel. It could also work in the middle of a two layer carrot cake. It can be purchased with or without nuts. I also enjoyed the jalapeño jelly on a chicken cutlet sub sandwich.

“Homemade tomato sauce just like your Nana makes”!

Made in small batches to bring you a true homemade taste. Home grown ripe tomatoes picked at peak flavor.

Seasoned with bold herbs to enhance “old school” Italian flavor. Served best over pasta, pizza, or dipping.

Chevian hopes to acquire a wholesalers license to sell to local restaurants and stores. For now, you can purchase his products through the website. He also offers delivery anywhere in the USA. If you follow Off The Vine 45 and Farmer Bob on social media, you can see where they are popping up at local markets and craft shows with a selection of items.

When asked about future plans, Chevian commented that he’s looking forward to releasing new products and he’d like to expand and go wholesale to start selling to local restaurants and stores and to have a store of

his own. He added that he’d like to have his own commercial kitchen, greenhouse, wood shop, and land to expand his vegetable gardens.

Treat yourself or the food lover in your life to a local gift from Off The Vine 45. Keep some on hand for your next party or create a gift basket for someone.

Be sure to let them know you read about it in Shop In RI Magazine!

Banana Bread Recipe What makes this banana bread special is that it uses whole wheat flour…less sugar…and no artificial extracts that make most banana breads taste like crap. It relies on very ripe bananas to give it its wonderful natural flavor.

It’s not always easy to get bananas to ripen exactly when you’re trying to make your banana bread recipe. So I buy a large bunch of bananas and let them get very ripe at room temperature. I then take 5 at a time (for this recipe), peel them, Directions: Ingredients: and place the bananas in a Ziploc bag in the Directions: Ingredients: freezer.

Dale J. Venturini RIHA’s Stars of the Industry Steals the Show at PPAC

By Dale J. Venturini,

President/CEO, RI Hospitality Association (RIHA)

After a two-year hiatus from gathering to celebrate the RI Hospitality Association (RIHA) and RI Hospitality Education Foundation (RIHEF)’s Stars of the Industry due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a sell-out crowd of over 700 representatives from across the industry returned in style, all converging upon the Providence Performing Arts Center (PPAC) on Wednesday, November 30th to recognize the outstanding individuals in Rhode Island’s restaurant, hospitality, and tourism industry at the 2022 Awards Ceremony.

Those who know me well know that Stars of the Industry has always been one of my favorite events to host. Despite the enormous amount of work it takes to pull off an event of this size, it has always been worth the time, energy, and effort, but especially now more than ever. After a tumultuous two-year stretch, the backbone of our industry – our servers, bartenders, hoteliers, housekeepers, chefs, valets, caterers and more – deserve a night to celebrate their incredible accomplishments.

This was our 32nd Stars event and the first time at PPAC, lending a Hollywood-esque quality to our Oscars-themed party.

Close to 75 awards were given out to representatives from each corner of our industry and its partner industries. Many of the awards recognize employees of the year; others feature vendor and tourism entities, emerging leaders, and lifetime achievers, some of which are labeled as “Oscar” awards.

If the space here allowed it, you know that I would list out each award winner by name, but there are far too many! As has been in the past, a full list of this year’s winners can be found on our website at: RIHospitality. org/RIHA-Stars-Award-Winners-2022. In a state as small as Rhode Island, there is bound to be someone you know, or their brother or sister, listed there!

To me, the best part about Stars of the Industry is that the majority of our award winners are selected by customers, peers, or their bosses. The nomination process is a transparent one, and members of our Board of Directors, both past and present, have enjoyed

New You…

Not New Year’s Resolution

I didn’t want to write another article about a New Year’s resolution or about starting a workout plan or diet. I wanted to write something that would help to change your lifestyle. I wanted readers to want to be healthy, but to also understand why diets don’t work, and why it really needs to be a lifestyle change. So, 2023 isn’t about a New Year, it’s about a New You.

By: Susan Gazerro

don’t ever have to feel deprived. I love what I eat.

I never feel like I’m missing out. I am also never the one saying, “I ate way too much yesterday and way too unhealthy so I need to starve myself today.”

Now, there are some healthy eating plans. (I don’t like the word diet). The eating plans I would recommend if you are trying to learn about healthy foods are:

Diets all promise fast weight loss. However, they often involve major changes like cutting out food groups, eating fewer calories, and/or cutting out all sugar, carbs, and alcohol. Fad diets come and go. The reason they go is because you can’t live with these changes forever. Eventually, you will go back to eating sugar, carbs, and drinking alcohol, etc. There are those few diets where you take appetite suppressants or stop eating all carbs and sugar. Here’s what happens; you lose weight, of course you do, but as soon as you go back to normal eating, your body thinks it was in starvation mode so it now stores everything as fat and you end up gaining more weight than you had before you started the diet.

I like these because they focus on eating lots of fruits and veggies, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. They don’t promise fast weight loss, but they do promise life-long health and long term weight loss.

Healthy eating is not hard. It’s not a diet. You

Don’t start a fad, trend, or crash diet because you

feel you are in a bad place right now. Think about life-long health and happiness.

Think about the reasons that you want to eat healthier. Is it to have more energy, lower your disease risk, lose weight, or feel healthier, overall?

Set realistic goals. Goals that are attainable.

Don’t say, “I’m going to cut out all sugar. I’m going to get up and run five miles. I’m not going to drink for a month. All of these goals sound great, but they are probably unattainable. Start by saying, “I will add a vegetable to my lunch and dinner daily. I will walk an extra mile today. I will drink less this week or weekend. Change your lifestyle. You can do this and you need to do this for you.

Last month at the end of my article there was a quote: “Life doesn’t have a remote so get up and change it yourself. Change your life!”

Ask yourself what leads you to overeating?

Are there certain times of the day or certain moods that you find yourself turning to food?

Recognize what these are and take control.

Yes, you do have control. This doesn’t mean you will be or have to be perfect. There will always be a time you overeat or indulge in a dessert, and that’s okay, even healthy, but you just can’t do it every day.

Focus on your food while eating. Turn off the TV and put away devices at mealtime. Food is more satisfying when you pay attention while you eat and when you eat slowly. It’s easier to notice when you’re full, too. Ask yourself, “Am I really still hungry or am I eating because it’s in front of me?”

The little things you change or add to your new lifestyle will make a huge difference. If you fall off the wagon one day, it’s only a wagon so get up and get right back on. This is your life. There is so much we can’t control, but our weight, which affects our health, we can control.

Happy & healthy 2023!

“We delight in the beauty of a butterfly, but we never think about the changes it had to go through to be that beautiful” I love this because it simply states everything has to go through something to come out better or more beautiful.

It’s YOUR life no one else’s.

Again, this is a new year. Make the year of you. You can do this. You and only you can make it happen. Don’t do it for anyone else.

Do it because you want to be healthier. You want to feel and look your best. When you feel good physically, you feel great mentally.

The holidays are behind us and today is a new day. Start by drinking extra water, today.

COMBAT READY SHOULDERS

by Kevin Kearns the shelf” items to accomplish this. For an item to be considered “off the self , it has to be affordable, adaptable, and functional.

One of my favorite items that anybody can find and implement is small sledge hammers.

Purchasing them in weights anywhere from 2-6lbs . The amount of work that can be done in multiple dimensional angles is truly amazing and limitless. They can develop grip strength, endurance in all the muscles used for striking.

Anyone who has watched the UFC and other fights will almost always remark on how well defined the upper bodies are of the fighters. The shoulder girdle ( the muscles that comprise the shoulder completely) are a complex structure and require some clear thought when working with fighters. Since the shoulder is used over and over again for anything from throwing punches to sprawls, it should be given careful consideration when designing a program.

This program must also take into consideration the potential for rehab work at the same time. Traditional methods for strengthening this area may not always and probably should not be applied in this arena. The common fan may believe that those shoulders were built by using more of a “ bodybuilding “ approach than a functional strength approach. The use of dumbbells for pressing motions, abduction, adduction, and retraction are great in some settings but in my experience we need to think out of the box more so, especially for MMA fighters.

There is no question that without a strong striking game , you are not going to last in the MMA game. We have seen the tide of fights changed with one well placed strike. Whether it is an elbow or a punch, timing, strength, and endurance is a major factor. To develop strong strikes there is a variety of ways to accomplish this. At Burn with Kearns we use a lot of “off

For the MMA and grappling game they are one of my go to tools for fight prep. When performing this workout there will not be a muscle you do not feel in your entire striking mechanics.

Whether you are a fighter or not, shoulder strength and flexibility are extremely important as we grow older. The shoulder is not just for pressing overhead motions or lateral raises. It’s a very fluid structure that all our ancestors used to be stick and sword fighters. Legit! The average sword for gladiators was 5 lbs and for knights the board sword was 12-15 lbs! You not only need strength but flexibility, endurance, and grip to swing a weapon like that in combat.

Let’s address the other challenge, shoulder rehab . It is commonplace in any sport that the more you train the more likely you are to have potential for injuries. Especially when there is a high degree of contact involved. I can think of no

other sport, like MMA, that the potential for injury is always there. The ranges of motion and the training intensity with which many of our fighters at “ Team Sityodtong” it is truly amazing that their bodies don’t break down more often.

When you think about how many hours are put in on the mat, between boxing, muay thai, grappling, BJJ and then conditioning, it’s no wonder why people want to be as “ Fit as Fighters”. They are truly some of the best-conditioned athletes in the world.

When UFC veteran Spencer Fisher came in for a sixweek fight camp, he had a slight bicep tendon tear that could be problematic. Our job was to get in the best shape possible over the next six weeks. This shoulder injury did concern me as we were going into the phase of “gas in the tank” (more sports specific training).

Kru Dellagrotte trusted me to get him ready on the conditioning side while rehabbing his shoulder. We opted to use the sledge hammers again to help rehab UFC Vet Spencer Fisher’s shoulder.

Here are some of our common exercises we use not only for strength of the shoulders but rehab as well.

SIDE TO SIDE SWINGS. Let the hammers do the work as you swing them from side to side just to shoulder height.

Anthony’s Jewelers Gives Back in a BIG Way

By Mark Berger The Manzo Brothers, Anthony and Jeffrey, have transformed the Anthony’s Jewelers business into a North Providence institution.

Along the way, they not only have provided their customers with the finest collection of wedding rings, engagement rings, watches, and

other great gift ideas, they have also been a devoted community partner.

By giving back to individuals, local youth groups, and being year-round ‘Santa Clauses,’ the brothers have a solid reputation of giving back to the community, a community that has welcomed them with open and waiting arms.

The list of organizations and people they have helped over the last four decades is as long as the famed Rte. 66 Highway. That is because Anthony and Jeffrey have generous hearts and want people to remember them for their continued outreach and good deeds.

Anthony & Jeff Manzo 36 Shop In RI

Anthony said that it’s part of “The Anthony’s Jewelers Way” of conducting themselves in the most professional and gracious manner possible. Being in business for

this long is a tribute to their way of accomplishing what they have created. However, Anthony noted their mantra is more than simply a slogan.

“Jeff and I feel like we have been blessed,” Anthony said, while taking time recently to reflect on the sheer volume of people the pair have helped over the years. “We have been blessed in the business, we have been blessed by our customers, we have been blessed by the community, and we have been blessed by the ongoing support of our customers.”

People around the state have seen their slogans over the years. Their latest, “Anthony’s Jewelers: Where Rhode Island Gets Engaged,” has been making the rounds. They also renovated their location at 1525 Mineral Spring Avenue, with new

floors, lighting—including chandeliers—and an entrance complete with a red carpet and red velvet ropes! Their vibe is to make everyone who visits the store feel special— because they are going through a happy period in their lives.

Some people may remember their other iconic slogans they used over the years. How many readers remember: “When you think diamonds, think Anthony’s Jewelers,” or, “When you think of Anthony’s Jewelers, think diamonds,” and “Anthony’s Jewelers will rock your world?” No matter whether you recall any of these slogans, the fact they have been doing this for so long gives them plenty of stories to tell.

They certainly have impacted so many people with their generosity. Among the many acts of kindness include: handing out $50 gas cards, buying coffee at a local shop for all of the shop’s customers, paid for heat for people in need, gave a $10,000 check to a man who battled cancer, and paid for year-round landscaping for five local families (that encompassed seeding, cleaning, and maintenance).

One would think there have been some special requests along the way. More than a few kids were taken aback with joyful surprises when their wishes were granted. That is because Anthony and Jeffrey were there to provide them with happy smiles and memories.

Anthony recalled a time when a family came into the store. He noticed their eight-year-old daughter was crying. When asked what was wrong, she said her horse had passed away. A traumatic event for anyone, but for a child, news like that can be devastating. Anthony asked

her parents if he could help. They told him of the Scituate stable where the horse had stayed. From there, Anthony went to work.

“I went to the stable and asked the owner if he had any horses for sale. He had three or four of them available. I selected one of them, contacted the family, and showed them their new horse. The girl finally stopped crying,” he said with a smile.

Their generosity didn’t stop at four-legged animals.

Anthony also met a family at an event at Roger Williams Park Casino in Providence. There were about a thousand people there, but one such family stood out to him for needing support, and he recognized it almost immediately.

Turns out, the child asked Santa for a parakeet for Christmas. Sadly, the child was disappointed when he didn’t receive one that morning. Undaunted, Anthony hired someone to dress up as Santa and personally give the child a parakeet for the occasion.

While the child was extremely happy, Anthony said not everyone was so overjoyed.

“After the parakeet was delivered, I received a call from the person who was my Santa. He said after huffing and puffing up three flights of steps, he was not going to do that again. It must have been some sight seeing someone dressed up as Santa Claus walking up stairs instead of coming down a chimney to deliver presents.”

Despite that small issue, it all comes down to one universal truth that Anthony and Jeff believe, which is to make the season—or any time of the year—memorable.

“The guy who has the most fun is the giver,” Anthony said.

“When you give to someone, you get more than the person receiving.”

Providence Softball League, the Rhode Island CYO Boys and Girls Basketball League, and CYO Theater Program.

That extends to more than one-off acts of kindness. He noted that once you give a bonus to employees, for example, you have to do it every year—even if it comes out of your own pocket. He rationalizes the reason for doing so: “They are relying on that money,” he said.

In addition to personal and local charities, they give to the Wounded Warriors’ Project, the American Heart Association, American Cancer Society, American Lung Association, The Jimmy Fund, The Dana Farber Institute, St. Jude’s, the American Indian Association, and The Joseph P. MacDonald, Esq., Charity.

They have actually gone into supermarkets and paid for customers’ groceries. Many of those people have quizzical looks, wondering what was happening. So many other people, groups, and organizations have been the beneficiaries of the Manzos.

He learned of a woman whose husband lost his job and they were struggling financially. Anthony responded by giving her $200 for the holidays to help out. He continues giving that amount to her annually—and has been doing so for 22 years and counting.

They find people on social media networks who either post needing help or know someone who needs a hand. Other people will walk in with a story telling of their hardships.

When the brothers hear of someone or a family in peril, they go the extra couple of miles to help.

While the generous donations are made, Anthony said there is one requirement that must be met in order to be considered.

Perhaps their favorite charity is Teen Challenge, an organization dedicated toward helping teenage girls involved in crisis situations. The Manzos have donated dinners, clothing, and movie tickets to help in their recovery.

“The person must show that there is a need,” he said.

One other thing about being a giver is having the ability to make other people believe in the dream. That actually happened once in his own family, according to Manzo.

The Manzo Brothers are no strangers to community support, as well as giving to individuals. They are members and contribute to numerous causes around the area. Locally, they participate in the Meeting Street School, the North

His then-10-year-old daughter told him she didn’t believe Santa Claus existed. There was a contest sponsored by COX and Providence Journal where people wrote in saying whether or not they believed

and why. Manzo said he brought home a bushel of entries to show to his daughter that people young and young-at-heart understood the power of Santa Claus.

One of those letters came from a woman who described her situation as dire: she broke her leg, her husband was out of work, and they could not shop for the holiday. Anthony took the note and sent $200 to her.

“Her name is Betty Smith, and I have been sending her that amount for the last 22 years,” he said. “She came into the store to personally thank me for the donation. I hadn’t met her prior to that. That is what the holidays and the ‘Spirit of Giving’ means.”

Other ways they continue giving are ongoing.

The brothers once purchased a fully-equipped vehicle for someone living with a disability. They have also taken people on all-expense paid crises, including hotel and airfare, paid for several kids’ college tuitions for families in need, they have also funded weddings, helped with down payments for homes, and trips as far away as to Mexico have also been paid for by the Manzos.

There is no end in sight in the generous giving of Anthony and Jeffrey. It is something they have been doing for so long and have no plans on stopping now. They plan to ring in 2023, the same way they ended the previous year: by helping others and providing people with the backdrop toward experiencing their own happiness by stopping by their location and being showered with their family appeal.

Manzo leaves the readers with one final thought as the holiday season has come to a close.

“This Christmas and throughout the year, let’s all think about giving to someone in need. That’s the Anthony’s Jewelers Way!”

The Idea of the Groom Store came to us seven years ago after a young customer told us how much he

was paying to rent a prom outfit. My first reaction was at the price he referenced, we could sell him an entire prom outfit that he could keep for what it was. We even went online to check out what we would pay to rent a fancy high performance car for the night and it was less than renting a used suit! Thus, the concept “why rent when you can own for less” was born. Since then, we have produced suits for thousands of weddings.

The original idea was to sell for less than you can rent and we still do that. We were the first in the area to do so, and one of several clothing stores around the country that saw the future of weddings. Now, amazingly, the rental companies are all starting to sell suits for weddings as well. However, they still don’t come close to what we can do. Additionally, most of them charge for tailoring, so each person in a wedding party pays a different price. We charge the same for everybody. Our selection of styles, fabrics, and colors far outmatches anyone in the area.

At the Groom Store, we offer personalized service, custom tailoring, tremendous suits or tuxes, ties, pocket squares, shoes, socks and belts. We are very flexible, and can even arrange for last minute same day tailoring for out of state groomsmen. We can do any type of specialized wedding, including Kilt weddings, Motorcycle clubs, western themes, beach and vacation weddings. If you can dream it, we can make your dreams come true. We can change the lining or change the lapel. We carry tuxedo pants that either have a stripe or don’t have a stripe. We have slim fits, modern fits, full cut suits and portly suits. We have notch, peak and shawl collar tuxedos, as well as peak and notch colored suits. We have an array of styles, fits, colors and patterns that no store can match. Our selection is second to none. In addition, we have a full range of ring bearer suits for the youngsters as well.

Our store has continued to grow and expand over the years. Last year, we introduced a special program called Champagne Weddings. These weddings involve custom and high-end suits for those who want the very best. The program includes completely custom clothing and direct assistance from our designer and stylist, Nathan Vivieros. Nathan can take your dreams and aspirations and help make your wedding the event of your lifetime. At the Groom Store, we try to make sure that the guests at your wedding never stop talking about the way the groom and groomsmen look. We know that our weddings are special by the number of groomsmen who come back to us to do their weddings, as well as the engaged couples that tell us they came to us because of the way that the groom and groomsmen look at a wedding they attended. Getting married?

Come on down to the Groom Store in downtown Providence. Bring your dreams with you, and we will do our very best to make them happen.

Setting and Achieving Financial Goals in the New Year By: Carrie McPherson

If the start of 2023 has you inspired to take on a healthier approach to your finances, you may be wondering how to do so and where to get started.

Should you focus on reining in your spending habits? Earning more? Investing wisely? All of the above? Here are some practical suggestions to help you improve your financial outlook this year and in the years ahead.

Envision your future. Financial goal setting involves brainstorming. Take the time to consider what you want your financial future to look like and what it will take to get you there. Your goals will flow from the life you want to create for yourself.

Get specific. It’s difficult to act on goals that are too broad or vague. You need to know dollar amounts. For example, if you hope to replace an older car, zero in on the price tag of your next vehicle. Or if you want to purchase a first (or second) home, identify how much you need for a down payment and what monthly payments you can afford. With these specifics in hand, you can calculate how much you need to save each month to achieve a given goal.

Prioritize. Choose a manageable number of goals to work toward. Better to start small and build on your successes. You can sort goals into lists of short-term attainable goals, five-year goals, and long-term stretch goals.

The sequence of goal attainment often falls into place naturally. For example, common sense suggests building up your emergency fund and paying down high-interest debt before contributing to a college education fund.

Attach timelines. Goal setting is meaningless without milestones and target dates. Set timelines that are reasonable and achievable.

Document your goals. You’ll want a visual reminder of your goals to make them part of your routine. Create a spreadsheet, put pen to paper or – ideally – work with a financial advisor who can help you map out your goals and document your progress against them. Set a reminder on your phone to review your goals on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Doing so will keep you focused on accountable for achieving them.

Pair goals with your budget. Realistic financial goals live within a budget. Ideally, your budget will provide guidelines and guardrails for earning, spending, and saving—the key to successful financial goal setting.

50 Shop In RI

Retrain your brain. Goal setting may seem like deprivation if you view it only as cutting back on spending.

Reframe your thinking to overcome mental obstacles.

See the rewards of putting your time and energy toward actions that move your financial life forward.

You might give yourself a psychological boost by doing something nice for yourself during or after goal setting activities. Over time, your mind will connect the two activities so that you find pleasure in both.

Be flexible. Goals are not static. If something changes in your circumstances, you can adjust your goals.

If you need to reduce your investment budget while you pay for a much-needed home repair, that’s life. Don’t let a setback derail you. Simply adjust and move on.

Prepare for success. When you make the effort to set attainable financial goals, you’re halfway there.

Once you start tackling each of your financial goals, you’ll be inspired to do more. Feelings of financial uncertainty will fade as you take your future into your own hands.

Get expert guidance. An experienced financial advisor can help you with financial goal setting. When it comes to applying strategies to save and invest for your future, their advice is priceless.

Will You Spend Your Retirement Savings or Leave It Behind?

By Edward Pontarelli Jr.

early. As you do, keep in mind that your legacy includes what you plan to give as an inheritance upon your death, in addition to what you give and value today.

Perhaps you are eager to give your children and grandchildren a helping hand. Your generosity could make a significant difference in helping them reach key financial milestones, such as achieving a college degree, purchasing a home or paying off a mortgage.

Or, maybe you prefer to contribute funds to a charity, foundation, or alma mater that aligns with your values.

Think about donating to causes that are most important to you or have made a significant impact on your life.

Whether you give to your loved ones, philanthropic causes or both, create or update an estate plan to document your wishes. Your plan should include written instructions (e.g., a will or trust) and up-to-date beneficiary designations on all your accounts.

A key financial question for retirees is what to do with their hard-earned retirement savings. For example, some may find it more fulfilling to provide a college fund for grandchildren rather than purchase a second home for themselves. The opposite can also be true, and that’s okay.

In my experience working with retirees, I’ve found it’s critically important to identify what each person’s goals are for their nest egg. Do they want to spend down their assets pursuing activities that bring them joy -- or would it be more fulfilling to leave an inheritance to loved ones? If you find yourself wrestling with the same question, read on for some considerations that can help determine the right approach for you.

The rationale for spending down your wealth On one hand, you may enter retirement with the primary goal of living the lifestyle you’ve worked so hard to earn. Pursuing a hobby, traveling, purchasing a vacation home or fulfilling another retirement dream may be exactly what you envisioned for your later years.

If you fall into this category, keep in mind that these plans likely come at a price. Given the realities of longer life expectancies, it’s crucial for retirees to be prepared for a retirement that could last for several decades. This means your savings will need to cover routine expenses, which are likely to rise due to inflation, as well as the potential for health and long-term care services. Ensure you allocate enough dollars for these purposes before deciding whether or how much money to spend down or leave behind.

The rationale for leaving a legacy On the other hand, if your primary retirement goal is to leave a legacy to your loved ones, it’s important to start nailing down the details of inheritance plans

Finding a happy medium Spending your assets or leaving an inheritance are both great options. Yet many of my clients hope to accomplish both. If this applies to you, too, know it’s possible to find a middle ground. After all, each person’s retirement dream is unique, so your financial plan to accomplish it should be, too.

As you weigh your options on how to allocate your savings, it may be important to you to talk with your spouse or partner about what brings each of you the most joy. Once you’re aligned, communicate your intentions with family. Estate planning can be a tough topic to raise with loved ones, no matter how much or little money you plan to pass down. But having the conversation can alleviate tension down the road while giving your children confidence about what to expect.

If you’d like a second opinion on how to achieve your retirement dream, consult a financial advisor and estate attorney. These professionals can offer advice and encouragement, helping you to find your own happy medium between spending and providing an inheritance with your assets.

The Overly Annoying Woodpecker My name is Tom Lopatosky. I’m the President of LOPCO Contracting (www.

LopcoContracting.com) & I’m honored to have the opportunity to talk to you about home improvement on a monthly basis. I love answering your questions! Please send them to tom@ LopcoContracting.com or call 401-270-2664. Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this column!

There are few pests hitting up people’s homes that approach the level of modern annoyances more so than New England woodpeckers.

Don’t get me wrong. Termites, carpenter ants, mice, carpenter bees, etc., are all unwelcome guests that cause enormous amounts of damage to our homes and businesses on a yearly basis, but for some reason, the tone of frustration that I have witnessed over the years with regard to active woodpeckers and the subsequent destruction that stems from their actions blasts the emotions generated by all of the other pests out of the water. I have noticed this to become increasingly true over the years.

While I am not sure if this is coincidence or actually accurate from a scientific standpoint, all I can tell you is that each year we seem to be on the phone with more and more home and business owners who are at their wits end with these tiny, winged creatures.

It could be the constant pecking on the home and when one goes out to scare them away, the woodpecker’s departure may be short-lived, as they seemingly hide in the trees and stare back at the house, waiting for their next opportunity to carry on with their incessant ruinous noisemaking.

Perhaps, it is the actual damage, which unlike carpenter ants and termites, may be highly visible to anyone that might happen to pass by and glance at the house. Or, possibly, it is the often unending mission to scare them away with some type of crazy tactic taken from the internet, until one seems to work.

As tempting as it may be to call upon retired military veteran and expert marksman ‘Uncle Danny’ to hide in the bushes with a BB gun, with the intent of picking off the feathered heathen at the first opportunity, woodpeckers are a protected species and any such discovered action would more than likely trigger the swift hand of the law to swoop down and really create a situation that will be unpleasant.

Years ago, while visiting with a client – whom I later discovered was an ornithologist – who lived in Lincoln, RI, along the Blackstone River, I learned an interesting fact.

Up until this point in time, I had always thought that the woodpeckers were looking for food, as they were pecking away at people’s homes. On the contrary, my ornithologist client explained; they were actually looking for dates.

The wood pecking action was more along the lines of some type of mating call/ritual, where the sounds that were being made on the

surface being pecked on were an actual part of the attraction process for the opposite sex. Just lovely.

While the noisemaking may be sweet sounding or a vital part of woodpecker reproductive activity, it is far from sweet sounding or amusing to the home or business owner being affected by it.

Even worse news, no building material seems to be sacred.

We have observed woodpeckers causing harm to all different types of wood, composite material, and even stucco!

Sometimes the damage is confined to one general area, sometimes it is spread throughout the entire exterior of a home.

There certainly appears to be no rhyme or reason.

As gut-wrenching as this may be to hear, the secret to ridding yourself of woodpeckers seems to be to keep trying different methodologies of attempting to ward them away, until stumbling upon what works.

If you would like to have an in depth conversation about some techniques that we have seen used throughout the years, please feel free to reach out to our office and schedule a conversation with us.

Who knows?

We may have seen that one technique that you may not have been privy to or implemented, as of yet, and it may be the technique that helps put the kibosh on one of nature’s ultra-maddening dating games, which is using your home for its centerpiece.

Service Stands Out at Toyota of Smithfield

By Mark Berger The Dealership’s Award-Winning Service Department has big plans for the new year. Yet, they are far from resting on their accomplishments.

Service Director Justin Olivo said that the Department keeps growing to keep up with their customers’ needs. Many of the service calls are for preventative maintenance, like oil changes. Other projects can be more time consuming, such as engine rebuilds.

Regardless of the job, it provides the Department an opportunity to shine.

“Even though we are small, we carry a family-like atmosphere,” said Olivo, who manages a staff of between 25-30 employees. “We service roughly between 1,700 and 2,000 cars a month. That’s about 60-70 vehicles per day. We strive to diagnose and fix each car that comes here.”

Olivo has been with Toyota of Smithfield for three years. Prior to that, he worked in the used cars/after-market field.

His goals are to win the President’s Award for the second straight year. He would also love to see the dealership and Department enter into either the “Top 3” or “Top 5” dealerships in the district.

Locally, Olivo would like to keep getting better as a service department.

Because of the increased work demands, they are currently seeking technicians to help with the workload. While it is not a requirement to have dealership experience, having worked in a smaller shop is a plus. Toyota will pay for training of staff and time to learn the craft. Please contact John Durrani with your inquiries.

As for inventory, they still welcome patrons to trade in their used vehicles. High demand and low inventory have made the need crucial.

To help facilitate the need for more certified, pre-owned vehicles onto their lot, Toyota of Smithfield offers 115% of the book value for any used cars. It does not matter whether the customer decides to purchase a car from their lot.

“We will buy your trade, even if you don’t purchase a car from us,” Durrani stated.

Customers may also take advantage of the Private Sales events of 2023, the first taking place on Saturday, December 28 and Sunday, December 29, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Those who attend future events will also be expected to follow social guidelines, but also have access to their inventory. Managers will be there to answer questions and offer additional incentives.

The Dealership’s Peace of Mind Purchase Process means no hassles over pricing, trade-in values, cash back, and rebate incentives offered up front and the best available leasing and financing terms up front. Durrani said that this is just part of the all-around, customer-driven experience he implemented to ensure the process does not get bogged down in miscommunication.
