O Star of the sea, help me and show me here in, you are my mother. O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity (make request). There are none that can withstand your power.

SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE REMINDER

BUSINESSSpotlight CHRIS’ CANINE CLUB

Pet boarding, day care and home care for your four-legged friends

June, the beginning of the vacation season, is here at long last! People are now busy filling up their datebooks with plans to travel near and far.

Looking on as these vacation plans unfold is Rover, your lonely golden retriever who already seems to know he is not invited to cross the ocean blue with you! No, Rover, your beloved family pet, is not allowed on that cruise ship, that deserted island, that towering mountain, that quaint village, or that white sandy beach you are dreaming of.

Summer is looking less and less appealing to Rover.

That is until he hears you talking about Rhode Island’s very own pet lover, dog enthusiast, animal guru and responsible business owner, Chris LaColle. Chris is the owner and operator of Chris’ Canine Club, a home-based pet boarding service located in a peaceful residential neighborhood in Coventry.

Chris LaColle has been an animal lover his entire life. He is gentle, persuasive and patient yet also firm, authoritative and in command. The pets in Chris’s care trust, respect and obey him not only because of his confidence but also because of his loving demeanor.

Chris’ Canine Club is a cozy home. A welcoming home. A pet-loving home. A home where your own “Rover” will enjoy a “vacation” of comfort, safety, attention, and lots of back scratches!

Meet Chris LaColle, the owner of Chris’ Canine Club in Coventry is seen here with Ralph (in his arms) and Ruby, his two regal Germa n Shepherds. Chris boards dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, and disabilities. Call today to book your dog’s summer vacation!

There is ample outdoor play time in a fenced-in backyard. Unlimited access to comfy furniture. A shady retreat under a covered pavilion. Plenty of personal attention with belly rubs on command! If you are off on a vacation, you can be certain that Chris is taking care of your pet as if it is his own, knowing that your pet is truly a member of the family.

Your dog’s experience at Chris’ Canine Club always begins with an important information-gathering “meet and greet” interview. Chris wants to be sure that your dog will be compatible with the other dogs in his care. He will want to assess your pets’ every need, from their eating habits to any medications they may require. Are they fully vaccinated? What is their previous boarding experience? What

• On June 13, 1381, a large mob of English peasants marches into London and begins burning and looting the city. The revolt began with the bubonic plague in the late 1340s, which killed nearly a third of the population of England and led to higher wages due to scarcity of labor. Parliament, however, passed laws to hold down wages.

• On June 19, 1856, the first national convention of the Republican Party comes to its conclusion. After the Civil War, the Republican-dominated Congress forced a radical Reconstruction policy on the South, which saw the passage of the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution.

• On June 17, 1885, the dismantled Statue of Liberty, a gift from France, arrives in New York Harbor after being shipped across the Atlantic Ocean in 350 individual pieces packed in more than 200 cases. The copper and iron statue was reassembled and dedicated the following year.

• On June 15, 1904, more than 1,000 people taking a pleasure trip on New York City’s East River are drowned or burned to death when fire sweeps through the riverboat-style steamer General Slocum.

• On June 14, 1951, the U.S. Census Bureau dedicates UNIVAC, the first commercially produced general-purpose electronic digital computer in the U.S. UNIVAC used thousands of vacuum tubes for computation.

• On June 16, 1961, Rudolf Nureyev, the young star of the Soviet Union’s Kirov Opera Ballet Company, defects during a stopover in Paris. While preparing to board the return flight, Nureyev threw himself into the arms of airport security people, screaming, “Protect me!” He was given political asylum.

• On June 18, 1983, Dr. Sally K. Ride becomes the first American woman in space when the shuttle Challenger is launched on its second mission.

Ride, as a mission specialist, was the first woman to operate the shuttle’s mechanical arm used to remove ice from its exterior. © 2022 Hearst Communications, Inc. All Rights Reserved

The Silver Lining…

Needless to say, the stock market has taken us on a wild ride thus far this year. i recall my mom always saying “look for the silver lining” in any challenging situation. so, let’s take my mom’s advice and dive into two areas that i feel may qualify as the “silver lining” in this volatile stock market. From a tax planning perspective, when your investments go down in value, it might, and i stress might, make sense to convert a portion of your traditional ira into a rOtH ira. you could do the same with a pre-tax retirement account, such as a 401k, 403B, etc. and convert to a rOtH account within the retirement plan, if available.

Why do i say that it “might” be a good idea versus stating that it is a good idea? What are the considerations? the most obvious consideration is converting pre-tax money into a rOtH account creates a taxable event. so, the first consideration is how you will pay the tax. the preferred method is to use your bank money that has been taxed already. to clarify, if you converted, as an example, $50,000 into a rOtH ira, that $50,000 is now income taxable. if you are in the 22% tax bracket, the federal income tax due would be $11,000 (plus your state income tax). it is much better to use after-tax bank money to pay that tax.

Consider the alternative of not using bank money: you convert $50,000 of traditional ira money into a rOtH ira. the federal tax bill is $11,000, but you would have to withdraw an additional $11,000 to pay the income tax bill on the $50,000. that creates an additional federal tax bill of $2,420 on that $11,000. this becomes too expensive and inefficient. as you can see, typically that math doesn’t work in your best interest! another consideration pertains to gifting. the annual gifting amount has been raised up to $16,000. if you gift more than $16,000, you will have to file a gift tax form with the irs -Form 709. there is no gift tax due on this type of gift ($16,000) and there is a lot of confusion around gifting, which i will explain shortly. (irs, n.d.)

Why can gifting of shares of highly appreciated stock be significant? Well, let’s say that you have some highly appreciated shares of a stock. the current reduced value of that stock allows you to gift more shares of that stock and stay under the $16,000 annual gift limit. so, when the share value recovers, your gift is worth more than

most will not have to be the $16,000 annual limit! concerned about gifting Keep in mind that the much larger amounts value of the stock is deterover the $16,000 figure. mined on the date of the if a gift is greater than transfer. $16,000, you would file there is a lot of confuthe gift tax form with the sion around the gifting irs; no tax would be due rules. When you make as long as the gift is under gifts during your lifetime, $12 million. (irs, n.d.) as theoretically, you reduce Jeffrey H. Massey you can see, most people the amount that you can Certified Financial Planner™ could make some very pass at your death withMassey and Associates, Inc. generous gifts way above out your estate being taxthe $16,000 amount withable at the federal level. out being concerned with the $16,000 gift amount will not reduce the amount that you a federal estate tax. always work with can pass on when you die without a a professional to help ensure that any gifting will not trigger a tax. federal estate tax.

Here is another potentially great Now that the federal exemption amount is a smidge (i know that’s idea when gifting highly appreciated a technical term) over $12 million, shares of stock. let’s say you want to

help your child or grandchild with college tuition. your options are -- write a check or use some highly appreciated stock as a gift. you may be wondering what the big difference would be.

Here is the big difference. instead of selling the stock and paying a capital gains tax of 15% and possibly the “medicare surcharge of 3.8% or 20% capital gains tax plus the surcharge, you may be able to gift the shares of stock to a college age child, let them sell the stock and if they are in the lower two tax brackets, they would be able to sell the stock shares and pay zero tax! yes, you read that correctly, zero capital gains tax! (irs, n.d.) there are many advantages of working with a financial planning team versus investment brokers. as financial planners, we focus on the entire financial picture, not just the investments.

We have other tax-efficient strategies. the larger your ira/retirement plan balance, the more valuable these strategies can be, in most cases. everyone’s financial situation is different, so it’s important to work through yours to help maximize your tax savings!

Investing involves risk, including the potential loss of principal. Any references to protection benefits, safety, security, lifetime income, etc., generally refer to fixed insurance products, never securities or investment products. Insurance and annuity products guarantees are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.

Please remember that converting an employer plan account to a Roth IRA is a taxable event. Increased taxable income from the Roth IRA conversion may have several consequences including (but not limited to) a need for additional tax withholding or estimated tax payments, the loss of certain tax deductions and credits, and higher taxes on Social Security benefits and higher Medicare premiums.

Grocery Store Savings Hacks Family Features

a

s people continue to eat more meals at home, shoppers everywhere are feeling the pinch of increasing prices on nearly every item at the grocery store. With almost one-third of americans spending at least $100 per week on groceries, many are now looking for ways to cut costs without sacrificing quality. in fact, 7 in 10 people (71%) are more likely to shop on a budget now than prior to the pandemic, according to a survey released by malt-O-meal, with parents being 21% more likely than non-parents. as you look for ways to save at the grocery store, consider these tactics: Create a Budget While you may have a number in mind you hope to spend weekly (or monthly) on groceries, it may not be sustainable. start by determining how much you spend over the course of a few weeks and use that number to identify patterns in your spending and set a more accurate grocery budget. From there, it may be easier to find places to adjust, like buying certain items in bulk or switching to value brands.

Make a List Creating a weekly meal plan and grocery list before you leave the house can reduce the chances of buying things you don’t need. Knowing exactly what you need for weekly meals and to replenish essentials - and sticking to that list - can help ensure you don’t spend money on products you won’t use.

Seek Out Value the top two factors consumers prioritize when grocery shopping are quality (34%) and price (30%), according to the survey. to help save money on their weekly grocery bills while still buying high-quality products, one of the top tactics shoppers have used is purchasing food from value brands.

One such option is bagged cereal from malt-O-meal, which is available in 36 ready-to-eat flavors so you can find a variety that appeals to each family member at an affordable price. With a commitment to quality and great taste, families can count on the wide selection packaged in re-sealable bags with a fun and colorful new look.

“Our survey found cold cereal is the No. 1 choice for breakfast during busy mornings,” said mike Porter, malt-Omeal brand director. “We’ve always been committed to providing topquality cereal at an affordable price per serving. We know this is more important than ever right now as shoppers and their families strive to start their mornings with a convenient breakfast while keeping a close eye on the budget.”

Shop Alone When shopping with other members of your family, like your children or significant other, the odds of straying from your list can increase. to help limit the chance of being coaxed into buying things you don’t actually need, go alone and stick to your list.

Scan Sales Flyers Grocery stores run various promotions each week that can help you save on everything from meat and eggs to ice cream and other frozen foods. a simple way to save is checking the weekly ads at the grocery stores in your area. shopping at a different store than usual may allow you to take advantage of different sales, and those items are often located in prominent areas of the store, like near the entrance or at the end of aisles, to make them easy to find.

Use Rebate Apps While rebates don’t always provide the same up-front savings of some other methods, such as traditional coupons, you may see a greater savings in the long run. With a variety of free options out there, you can register and start earning cash back almost immediately.

For greatest savings, pair rebate app savings with store loyalty discounts and credit card cash back rewards.

Look for In-Season Produce When you’re shopping on a budget, sticking to in-season produce can get you the most bang for your buck.

When fresh fruits and vegetables are out of season, stores typically charge

more for them since they’re not as readily available. Planning your meals around in-season produce can not only help save money, but also put the best-tasting fruits and veggies on the table.

“Do You Need A New Roof?

If So, I Bet The Last Thing You Want To Do RIGHT NOW Is Spend $15,000-$25,000 Or More On A New Roof!”

Call the Roof Assistance Hotline at 401-954-9012 to learn how you may qualify to replace your old roof for $5,000-$6,000 of your own personal funds, regardless of roof size.

This is not a loan or a grant so there is no application to fill out and no home appraisal required.

Qualifying is strictly based on a free assessment of your current roof.

Who this program is for: 1. Homeowners with medium, large or extra-large roofs 2. This program is not based on financial hardship. In fact, many homeowners that we assist are considered somewhat affluent 3. Homeowners with a roof that is between 10-35 years old are ideal 1.

4.

Who this program is NOT for:

Homeowners with smaller than average roofs Homeowners that have replaced sections of their roof over the years, piece by piece Homeowners with roofs that are less than 10 years old Homeowners that a have a roof in absolutely terrible condition that probably needed to be replaced many, many years ago

“I received something indicating that it was possible to replace my roof for a fraction of the actual cost. Now, my roof was over 13 years old and I thought no way, but what the hell I’ll call and find out more. Best phone call I have ever made. These guys have a system that was a joy to watch. I could go on and on I mean these guys saved me $15,000. So do yourself a favor, if you need a new roof call them first.”

Patchy and weed-filled lawns that are growing faster than we can keep up with them, pesky piles of leaves and flowering tree petals that are tangled in bushes, overgrown hedges that need a good trim, garden beds that should be mulched ~ all of this, and so much more, awaits you as summer blooms in all its glory.
