• On March 17, 1601, the first parade honoring the Catholic feast day of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, is held in what is now St. Augustine, Florida. The first St. Patrick’s Day parade in New York City was held in 1762. • On March 20, 1823, Ned Buntline, the “dime millionaire” and discoverer of Buffalo Bill, is born. More than any single writer, Buntline was responsible for creating a romanticized and misleading image of the American West. He once said, “I found that to make a living I must write ‘trash’ for the masses.” • On March 18, 1852, in New York City, Henry Wells and William G. Fargo join with other investors to launch their namesake business. In July 1852, their company Wells Fargo shipped its first loads of freight from the East Coast to mining camps in northern California. • On March 15, 1901, paintings by the late Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh are shown in Paris, causing a sensation across the art world. Van Gogh had died by suicide, and in his lifetime he had sold only one painting. • On March 19, 1916, eight Curtiss “Jenny” planes of the First Aero Squadron take off from Columbus, New Mexico, in the first combat air mission in U.S. history. They flew in support of the 7,000 U.S. troops who invaded Mexico to capture revolutionary leader Pancho Villa. • On March 16, 1945, the west Pacific volcanic island of Iwo Jima is declared secured by the U.S. military after weeks of fierce fighting. More than 6,000 Marines died fighting for the island, along with almost all the 21,000 Japanese defenders • On March 14, 1950, the FBI institutes the “Ten Most Wanted Fugitives” list. Since its debut, hundreds of criminals on the list have been apprehended or located, many as a result of tips from the public. © 2022 Hearst Communications, Inc. All Rights Reserved

To prepare or not to prepare Jeffrey H. Massey Certified Financial Planner™ Massey and Associates, Inc.
Recently I had a business trip to Topeka, Kansas and landed during a 6-inch snowstorm. Given the fact that we recently had a blizzard followed by 9 inches or so shortly thereafter, I didn’t think that 6 inches of snow was much of a big deal. Not so much in Kansas! I guess they don’t usually get that much snow so the driving was horrendous. It took about 2 hours for a typical one-hour drive. I saw several cars and SUVs off the road and a tractor trailer had jackknifed on the other side of the highway. I guess they just weren’t prepared. Snowstorm preparation is pretty basic—salt the roads before the storm and get the plows moving once the snow starts to accumulate. I felt that Rhode Island did a great job with the blizzard. Most places were open for business the next day and life went on. Let’s compare not preparing for your retirement to not preparing for a snowstorm that you know is coming. Preparing for retirement has similarities to preparing for a snowstorm. You know your retirement is coming, and likely, you know when that will be. Just like a snowstorm is forecast, and we know when that will happen. Once the snow starts to fall, you know that there are certain risks with driving and there is a risk of lost power, etc. Retirement has certain “known” risks as well, and it is so important to prepare for those risks and mitigate them as best you can, much like preparing for a snowstorm. Preparing for retirement is like buying milk and bread and other staples to ensure that you have adequate food in the house when that storm comes. It’s all about being prepared and having a plan. When saving for retirement, it is important to diversify your asset types. Most have heard the adage, don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Although true, it is also important to have money in different categories as well. Typically, you should look for three key elements--safety, liquidity and growth. Unfortunately, you cannot get all three elements in one asset category. Therefore, it is important to have some money in banks or credit unions for your emergency fund and expected short-term expenses such as a new appliance, furniture, a new roof, etc. This will provide safety and liquidity, but not much growth at the current low interest rates. On the opposite side of safety is investing in the stock market. I know that likely isn’t a great topic given the recent volatility that the market has been experiencing this year. However, for long-term growth the stock market has repeatedly shown that over long periods of time, the market will grow. The S&P 500 has grown 700% since
March of 2009. That is not a typo, 700% in 13 years. (S&P Global Market Intelligence, n.d.) That is enormous growth! To help combat inflation, some of your retirement money should be invested in the stock market. I am NOT advocating taking excessive risk. It is important to work with professional advisors that have a bias towards more conservative growth to lessen the likelihood of big losses when the
stock market has its next big correction or a long-term bear market. The closer your retirement date, the lower the risk you should have in your portfolio. Part of our proprietary process is to determine the level of risk that you may have in your portfolio and adjust that risk as may be appropriate for your circumstances. Investments in the stock market will also provide liquidity as your invest-
ments can be sold on the open exchange. Between these two “bookends” are insurance-based contracts that allow you to track an index, such as the S&P 500 (there are many others) yet, not be directly invested in the S&P 500. In these contracts that have been available since 1995, you share in the growth of the index, (you don’t get all the growth) but never experience a loss if the index goes down during your term, which is typically one year. These are longer term contracts that can be 5, 7 or 10 years in length. They allow penalty-free withdrawals up to 10% of the contract value annually, starting in year two. Much like a long-term CD will have penalties until maturity, these contracts do as well. Properly implemented, these contracts can provide a level of safety and growth potential that is tied to a market index but has guarantees backed by the claims paying ability and financial strength of the insurance company. As always, I recommend that you work with an experienced team for your retirement planning to learn about these products and other strategies that may be a good fit for your situation. Having a plan to be prepared for your retirement will always be better than having no retirement plan at all! At Massey And Associates, Inc., our retirement planning process is precise and thorough. Once we get to know our clients’ goals and current situation, we’re able to create a plan to help them make their dream retirement a reality.

What affects credit score?
The Reminder March 8-14, 2022..........Page 11
SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE REMINDER
METRO
Credit is defined as a customer obtaining services or products before payment with the trust that payment will be made in the future. Credit affords people purchasing power they would not have if they had to pay for something outright at the time of checkout. In addition, credit enables men and women to finance expensive automobiles, buy homes or furnish those homes, contributing much to the foundation of a strong economy. A strong credit history and score is vital to personal finance. The steps people take concerning their finances can greatly affect their credit. Identifying the behaviors that may be detrimental and those that are beneficial can help customers reevaluate their habits and improve their creditworthiness in the eyes of lenders. Payment history
The financial advisement resource Credit Karma says one of the most important factors affecting credit scoring is payment history. Having a long history of making payments on time is essential for a strong
RhodyMoney credit score. Missed payments and a reputation for paying late can drive ratings down. It can take some time to recover from late payments. Failure to recognize late or missed payments may result in bankruptcy or tax liens, which are a heavy black mark on credit. Credit utilization rate
Credit utilization refers to the amount of credit you have available, based on credit card limits, compared to the amount of credit you’re actually using by way of the balances on credit cards, advises the credit tracking company Experian. Lenders prefer to see ratios of around 30 percent or less. To calculate credit utilization rate, divide your credit card balance by your credit limit. So if your balance is $600 and your limit is $1000, that’s a utilization rate of 60 percent.
Call today to reserve your advertising space in our monthly section:
RhodyMoney Running in the Warwick Beacon, Cranston Herald, Johnston Sun Rise & The Reminder. With a total circulation of over 35,000 in the West Bay, it’s a great place to advertise.
821-2216
Number of accounts
The number of open accounts you have affects your credit score. Scoring models often look back and consider how many accounts are open and if there are any outstanding balances. Length of credit history
The length of your credit history is another factor that affects your score, according to Investopedia. Credit scoring takes into account the age of your oldest account, if you’ve used that account recently, as well as the average age of all your accounts, including the newest. Closed accounts can stay on your credit report for up to 10 years, but when an account closes, this will affect your credit history average. Credit scoring rubrics will determine just how the ratio of new to old accounts and frequency of use will impact your score. Credit scores are important. Understanding them further can help people secure their financial futures.

RI Reg #44342
By Jennifer Coates It doesn’t take much to look around your home and property to see that looming list of home improvement projects growing. Winter has a way to adding extra wear and tear on an exterior paint job – the constant moisture, the baking, unfiltered sun, the battering temperatures. Your house looks beat down! The indoor of your home can take a beating too, if you don’t keep up with it! Peeling and flaking paint, water marks on your ceilings, dings and dents on the moldings around every door. Just plain old day-to-day living can be tough on our homes! How about just an easy “facelift” to give your home a fresh look for spring? It is times like these
when you need to call in the help of a professional painter, a professional painter like Alex Carlson, the owner of Ocean State Painting & Property Maintenance. Though Alex Carlson officially incorporated his business just over two years ago, he is hardly new to the world of home improvement. He has been working with his hands since he was a child when he began tinkering with home renovations as a young boy with his uncle. These experiences instilled in Alex a passion for the work. In high school, Alex’s training intensified in the school’s carpentry vocational program which eventually led to an apprenticeship with a cabinet and painting contrac-

tor. Today, Carlson runs a successful business, Ocean State Painting & Property Management. Alex has very high standards for his work, never settling for second best. He has a keen eye for imperfections and flaws, whether it is a seam or gap that needs to be caulked, a nail that needs to be set, holes that need to be filled or peeling paint that needs to be scraped and sanded before being primed. No short cuts here. As Alex tackles the paint jobs in your home, you can depend that he will work hard for you. This begins with the prep work, the meticulous and detail-oriented work of preparing any surface for paint. If your house has shutters, they come down and are sanded, primed then painted. If there is peeling paint, it gets sanded down before any finishing work is done. If your house has trim or molding that needs to be repainted, he sets all nails, fills all holes, caulks all seams, and then sands them to ensure a glass-like finish with a quality semi-gloss. No detail is overlooked.
Alex Carlson, the owner of Ocean State Painting and Property Maintenance, can turn shabby and unfinished to crisp, bright and brand new. Find his before/after work on Facebook! Book your appointment today at 401-414-9285 Alex’s customized work does not stop here. Customers will also find him busy laying flooring, refinishing hardwoods, refinishing & repainting cabinets, removing wall-
paper, and more. If you have any projects you have put on hold, now is the time to book your free estimate with Alex. Alex Carlson of Ocean State Painting & Proper-

ST. JUDE’S NOVENA
O Holy St. Jude, apostle and martyr, great in virtue and rich in miracles, near kinsman of Jesus Christ, faithful intercessor of all who invoke your special patronage in time of need: To you I have recourse from the depth of my heart and humbly beg to whom God has given such great power to come to my assistance. Help me in my present and urgent petition; in return, I promise to make your name known and cause you to be invoked, with publication promised. Say 3 Our Fathers, 3 Hail Marys, and 3 Glories for 3 days, and your petition will be granted. This novena has never been known to fail. It has helped me. HQT
