Shorewood senator calls on governor to sign bill funding human services State Sen. Jennifer BertinoTarrant, D-Shorewood, last week urged Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner to sign a $700 million appropriations bill to fund human service programs.

Senate Bill 2038 received unanimous bipartisan support when it passed out of the House and Senate last month by votes of 110-0 and 56-0, respectively. The bill went to the governor’s desk May 18. Tarrant says the $700 million appropriation is fully

funded by a mixture of human service, state and federal “Pass Through” funding.

“SB 2038 is a much needed bill that will deliver immediate relief to health-care providers who have operated for over a year without a budget,” Bertino-Tarrant said in a June 23 news release. “Gov. Rauner can bring vital aid to human service programs and ensure our most vulnerable receive the care they need with just a stroke of his pen.”

City COuncil

Land acquisition for CenterPoint Joliet approved Officials vote 7-0 in favor of ordinance

By Megann Horstead for the bugle

sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @JolietILNews

The Joliet City Council approved an ordinance last week, granting CenterPoint Joliet rights to a plot of undeveloped land.

City officials voted 7-0 at the June 21 city council meeting.

Councilman Jim McFarland was absent.

Councilwoman Jan Quillman noted that community concerns regarding the new construction that would be associated with the land acquisition weighed heavily on her vote. She said she wanted

it to be clear why she is voting to approve the ordinance.

“I would like to see to it that those folks along there are well taken care of, similar to the folks in the past had been with their properties because they spent a lot of money making those places beautiful,” she said. “They thought they were going to be their forever homes. With all this traffic and everything surrounding them, it’s just a quality of life issue for me.”

Quillman said that in the past, people in the neighborhood felt as though they were being shoved out of the area.

“To CenterPoint’s credit, after I brought it up and mentioned it,

they did give the homeowners top dollar for their homes,” she said.

Quillman added that the new bridge being built in the area is expected to increase truck traffic, which provides an additional reason to be concerned.

“I just wanted to make sure that those homeowners are well taken care of,” she said.

The two lots in question make up a minor subdivision located south of Route 6 on Terminal Court. CenterPoint intends to use the plots of land in order to allow for the continued development of its business center.

City records show that the undeveloped land is zoned I-2 for general industrial use.

To date, there is an existing proposal to develop the land.

Board approves labor agreement for courthouse, capital projects Three Rivers Construction Alliance is a labor-management cooperative The Will County Board announced that it has approved a “significant labor agreement” with local union contractors that officials say paves the way for timely, costeffective construction of a new courthouse, sheriff’s office and health department building.

Three Rivers Construction Alliance is a labor-management cooperative made up of representative construction industry organizations in Will, Grundy, Kankakee and Iroquois counties, according to the alliance’s website.

“This agreement is another great milestone for our vital capital projects and represents a true spirit of cooperation and commitment between the board and local union labor,” said Ragan Freitag, R-Wilmington, chair of the county board’s capital improvements committee. “We are all working together to provide the residents of Will County modern, safe facilities that meet their needs and stand the

test of time.”

Construction on the new sheriff’s office building is expected to begin within the next year, followed by the construction of a new courthouse in downtown Joliet with an anticipated completion date near the end of 2019. A satellite courthouse in a location to-be-determined in the northern part of the county is also planned, as well as a new health department building.

“Will County has some of the finest contractors and craftsman in the entire state, and we are pleased to partner with them in building a better county for generations to come,” Will County Board Speaker Jim Moustis said. “We look forward to getting shovels in the ground soon.”

The current courthouse was built

Will County Board members Mike Fricilone and Ragan Freitag with members of Three Rivers Construction Alliance. in 1969. County officials say its 23 courtrooms provide insufficient space and security, and do not meet the minimum standards for safety and security as set by the Illinois Supreme Court.

“Taxpayers want assurances that their money is spent and invested wisely on capital projects that are of the highest quality,” said Mike Fricilone, R-Homer Glen, chair of the county board’s finance committee.

“The management of labor is a key component to reach this goal, and the Board has now taken the necessary steps to guarantee quality craftsmanship and professional contracting.”

Lot 1, which is 30.8 acres, would house a wheeled storage facility.

At 2.6 acres, the development of lot 2 would house the rail spur, so as to merge the structure with one of the adjacent users. Lot 3, which is 6.5 acres, would preserve the lot for Terminal Court as a private drive.

Currently, there are no future plans for the fourth lot, which encompasses 1.3 acres of land.

All improvements to the land must be completed in compliance

to requirements set forth by an approved annexation agreement, subdivision regulations and the public works utilities department.

In it, there are guidelines for landscaping, which must be followed in order to adhere to city ordinance and the terms of the annexation agreement.

Additionally, water and sanitary sewer connection charges and development impact fees will be charged according to the terms of the approved agreement.

Board approves 2 new electronics recycling sites New Lenox Township, village of Peotone to collect electronics twice a month The Will County Board approved two intergovernmental agreements to add electronic recycling drop off sites in New Lenox Township and the Village of Peotone.

The move comes in response to the county abruptly losing its long-time vendor back in March.

“Electronic recycling is an issue for residents in my district

who have been asking for help in finding a solution, and I’m pleased we now have a real option for them again,” county board member Ray Tuminello, R-New Lenox, said.

“Quite frankly, it’s a shame there are not more places to dispose of these types of products in a safe and environmentally friendly way.

For many years, it was a tough sell to get people to recycle anything,

and now many are mindful of what they send to landfills but are faced with limited recycling options for electronics.”

In March, the county lost its electronics recycling vendor, forcing the board to find alternatives to meet the recycling demand fulfilled by its previous 13 drop-off sites. Since March, only one recycling site has been available at the Lockport Public Works Department, 17112 Prime Blvd.

Residents from any Will County community can use any of the

three collection sites.

Lockport’s site is open Tuesday and Friday from 6-11 a.m. The village of Peotone’s site is located at the Peotone Police Department, 269 N. Main St., and open the first and third Wednesday of each month from 5-7 p.m. A collection site at the New Lenox Township Office, 1090 S. Cedar Road, is open the second and fourth Wednesday of each month from 5-7 p.m.

Electronic Recyclers International, the county’s new vendor, hauls away everything collected.

Heroes for Homeless supports agency’s programs Catholic Charities of Joliet holds inaugural motorcycle run Megann Horstead for the bugle

sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @JolietILNews

Catholic Charities of Joliet shifted gears over the weekend, driving community members by the dozens to the inaugural Heroes for the Homeless Motorcycle Run. The fundraiser is one of many events organized by the agency, whose aim is to provide social services to individuals in need and other vulnerable members of the community.

Highlights from event included live music by School of Rock Mokena, food and a raffle.

Marianne Melcher, an event coordinator for Catholic Charities of Joliet, said bringing the community together in support of the agency is key to its ability to provide services.

“With it being our first time for this event, we’re looking forward to reaching out to others in the community who haven’t been to our events,” she said.

Kathleen Langdon, director of development and communications for Catholic Charities of Joliet, said the event is particularly important now because of social service cuts associated with the state of Illinois’ ongoing budget impasse.

“Even though Catholic Charities of Joliet hasn’t incurred the monetary problems, we have seen an increase in clients,” she said.

Langdon added that even though Catholic Charities of Joliet was financially “well prepared,” many more agencies will be negatively impacted the longer Illinois goes without a state budget.

“If they don’t fix this budget, even the strongest agencies will

feel what happens from not having it,” she said.

The goal of Heroes for the Homeless is to bring the community together in support of the Catholic Charities and its programs.

Bob Weber, of Plainfield, was one of many bikers who attended the motorcycle run. He said he heard about the event through a few friends from his workplace.

“I love doing this,” said Weber, who recently participated in a different motorcycle run for charity. “I love raising money for charities like this.”

Riding his motorcycle in support of the homeless, the needy and seniors is something that Weber said has great meaning.

“Being able to help people who are a lot worse off than I am makes me feel really good,” he added.

Brad Kanpkiewicz, of Plainfield, was also cruising the streets of Plainfield as part of the Heroes for the Homeless Motorcycle Run. He too recently completed another motorcycle run for charity. After

hearing about the Heroes for the Homeless event from some of his friends, Kanpkiewicz said he’s been looking forward to riding again in support of a good cause.

“It’s nice to ride with nice people [and] do good things for charities,” he said. “It makes the ride really special. Helping people, that’s the way life should be.”

This won’t be the last.

Half a week into the Orlando tragedy, this reality remains pretty much unacknowledged, as cause-seekers focus on security and ISIS and the specific mental instability of Omar Mateen, who, as the world knows, took 49 precious lives and injured 53 others at the nightclub Pulse in the early hours of June 12.

Was it terrorism? Was it a hate crime?

Apparently there’s a media obsession with categorizing murder. No, this was faux-war, as all our mass killings are, waged by an army of one or two or a few.

And it won’t be the last. Mass killings are part of the social fabric - still shocking, still horrifying, but becoming more and more . . . “normal.”

Tighter security won’t stop them.

Destroying ISIS won’t stop them.

Banning immigrants won’t stop them.

Maybe nothing will - though I don’t believe that. I do believe in karma, which is to say, the idea that what goes around comes around. If we act with violence, violence will come back to us.

Only when the U.S. news media can put its murder stories in a context that includes inner reflection, rather than simply casting about for some external evil to blame - e.g., the killer had a Muslim name, so it must be terrorism - do we have, I believe, a hope of transcending the violent culture we’ve created.

There’s nothing particularly mysterious about this. What goes around usually comes back around in fairly obvious ways. For instance, the day after the killings, Rachel Maddow spent part of her show on MSNBC discussing how Mateen’s fantasy ISIS connection seemingly fit in with the terror organization’s global game plan, quoting an ISIS social media post to its followers in the West: “If you can kill a disbelieving American or European, especially the spiteful and filthy French or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever, from the disbelievers waging war, kill him in any manner or way however it may be.”

Maddow described this as a tactical change for ISIS: “Stay where you are in the West and commit attacks there. Kill civilians in your home country.” She also talked about how the U.S. is at war with

Robert C. Koehler ISIS and has been “dropping bombs on ISIS targets” in Iraq and Syria since the summer of 2014. She made this point coolly, matter-of-factly, giving no hint that she understood that bombs cause a lot of carnage, often killing everyone in the vicinity, including children. Outrage and grief only entered her voice when her reporting turned to ISIS, because ... my God, what they were promoting was sick beyond belief.

However, their tactical change also struck me as brilliant, in that they had found a way to “drop bombs on Western targets” without having an air force. This was, you might say, improvised shock and awe, borrowing a phrase from the U.S. war machine, which launched a shock-and-awe bombing campaign on Iraq in 2003. The term comes from a 1996 publication by Harlan K. Ullman and James P. Wade, Shock and Awe: Achieving Rapid Dominance: “The intent here,” they wrote, “is to impose a regime of Shock and Awe through delivery of instant, nearly incomprehensible levels of massive destruction directed at influencing society writ large, meaning its leadership and public, rather than targeting directly against military or strategic objectives.”

In March of 2003, the U.S. launched its invasion of Iraq - a.k.a, the Big Mistake - with some 1,700 air sorties over the country that killed thousands of Iraqis.

Out of this monstrous mistake, and all that followed, ISIS eventually emerged, and started striking back. This sort of karma is so obvious, you have to make a serious effort not to notice it.

But the hell Mateen unleashed at the Orlando nightclub hardly reduces to something this simple. His fantasy connection to ISIS may have been no more than a fragment, at best, of his motivation. Like every mass killer, he was deeply, deeply troubled and seething with social grievances - in his case, homophobia, likely permeated with self-hatred.

The only way to protect ourselves from such a person before he’s committed a crime is to create a surveillancesaturated, endlessly suspicious - and, of course, increasingly fortified and armed - social structure, which probably won’t

work anyway, but will surely poison our social bedrock, which is trust.

And as long as the only way we attempt to understand mass murder is on his (or her) own terms, independent of all social context, we will fail to prevent . . . the next one, and the one after that.

The starting place, I think, is to understand that committing mass murder is psychologically the same as waging war. “The defining characteristic of mass murder is not that it’s senseless or random,” I wrote in the wake of the Sandy Hook killings three and a half years ago, “but that the victims (at least some of them) were murdered for purely impersonal reasons. They had significance as symbols, not individuals.”

The murders, in short, are not personal. The killer is employing what’s known as the “principle of social substitutability” - substituting a particular group of people for a general wrong.

“The rampage shooters see themselves as moralistic punishers striking against deep injustice,” Peter Turchin explains in his essay “Canaries in a Coalmine.” “... it is usually a group, an organization, an institution, or the whole society that are held responsible by the killer.”

“On the battlefield,” he wrote, “you are supposed to try to kill a person whom you’ve never met before. You are not trying to kill this particular person, you are shooting because he is wearing the enemy uniform. . . . Enemy soldiers are socially substitutable.”

Under official circumstances, we glorify this sort of behavior. And this glory permeates the American social structure, creating a sort of standing permission for every troubled individual - every potential army of one - to wage war against a self-perceived wrong.

Added to this standing permission is the dumbfounding availability of automatic weapons - and suddenly mass murders happen every couple of months.

Throw in one further irony. Mateen had worked for nine years as a security guard at G4S, the largest security firm in the world, which at one time had charge over the U.S. prison at Guantanamo.

As The Atlantic noted, he was part of the security system that’s supposed to protect the public from... people like him. robert Koehler is an award-winning, chicagobased journalist and nationally syndicated writer. his new book, “Courage Grows Strong at the Wound” (Xenos Press) is now available.

golf review

scorer’s paradise Joliet course gives opportunity for low scores

By Scott Taylor sports editor

staylor@enterprisepublications.com @Taylor_Sports

The Joliet Park District features three courses, one of which ( Wedgewood) we reviewed last year.

This year we decided to review Inwood Golf Course, located on Rt. 52 and Essington Road. I consider the course the middle course of the three. Wedgewood is much longer, while the other course, Woodruff, is much shorter. Wedgewood is much more open, while Woodruff is much tighter. That makes Inwood more like a middle of the road course.

While it plays tighter than Wedgewood, there is still a lot of room to spray the ball around and that room helped lead me to my career best round when

Locals highlight all-area team; Hedgcock POY

By Mark Gregory sports reporter

mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard

Downers Grove South senior Caroline Hedgcock is not only the best softball player in the area, earning the Voyager Media Player of the Year honors, in June she was dubbed the best player in the state as she was awarded the Gatorade Illinois Player of the Year honors.

On the season, the University of Arkansas recruit compiled a 14-1 record in the circle along with a 0.951 ERA, leading the Mustangs (36-4) to a third-place finish in Class 4A. She struck out 131 batters in 95.2 innings pitched, while allowing just 49 hits.

At the plate, Hedgcock batted .549 with 22 home runs and 68 RBI. She posted 10 doubles and scored 59 runs.

“It was amazing,” she said of winning Gatorade POY. “I was really surprised. I really couldn’t have done it without Tim Walsh, my pitching coach from San Diego. He is really helping me with screw knuckleball – the off speed I throw. My team makes it easy to be Gatorade Player of the Year because they play such great defense behind me and work with the bats and bring so much energy to the game that it is easy to come on and want to play.”

That knuckle screwball was a pitch that by design seldom even

reached home plate on a fly, but still had batters fanning at thin air where they expected the ball to be.

Catching that pitch may seem like a challenge, but South’s junior receiver Maddison Paladino said Hedgcock’s ability to control the pitch made it dangerous.

“I am so confident in that pitch because Caroline is such a strong pitcher that even if it is a little off, it won’t be so far where I can’t get it,” Palidino said. “It is amazing.

When she won (the Gatorade) award, I was so proud of her and I have been proud of her all year for putting the hard work in because she gives it her all. This has been such a great experience. I really didn’t play a lot last year and to come in and be able to catch such a great pitcher and person was such a great experience. She is so good and such a genuinely good person.”

Someone who has seen Hedgcock grow from the beginning is retiring Mustang’s coach Ron Havelka.

“She is special and she always stepped up in big games against good competition,” he said. “She was on varsity for four years and she really knows what to do. People don’t realize is how great of a hitter she really is and she did everything for us that we asked her to do and more. Players like her don’t come around very often. She is very special and she has been since she was a freshman.”

Hedgcock is the second player from Downers Grove to win the Gatorade Player of the Year honors, following North’s Dale Ryndak, who claimed the award in 2014.

Hedgcock earned comparison to Ryndak from her former coach.

“She is a great pitcher,” North coach Eric Landschoot said of Hedgcock. “She throws hard, she hits her spots and she has great off speed stuff and then at the plate, she hits a lot. She reminds me a lot Dale Ryndak, who was the Gatorade Player of the Year two years ago. Just the competitiveness she brings and her knowledge of the game and the way she gets her teammates up. knows how to pitch to good hitters. She knows hitters’ strengths and weaknesses and she knows how to go at them and that will take her far at the next level, too.”

The rest of the Voyager Media All-Area Softball team consists of:

Downers Grove South’s Caroline Hedgcock repeats at Voyager Media Player of the Year the Tigers.

KRISTEN BIALEK A senior from Downers South, Bialek batted .427 with 56 hits in 131 at bats. She had 47 runs scored and 18 RBI from the leadoff spot.

“Kristen is the catalyst to our offense and is a four-year starter,” Havelka said. “She is an excellent leadoff hitter who has stolen 30 bases this year and 96 for her career.

She is also a solid second baseman who is the leader of our infield. She has ignited many innings with her hitting and base running. She will attend Murray State University on a softball scholarship.”

NICOLE BOND Bolingbrook junior catcher batted .377 with a .506 on base percentage for the sectional finalists.

“She was the team leader,” Bolingbrook coach Jean RyanMoak said. “She was very vocal on and off the field, always talking to our pitching staff throughout the game.”

JULIA BORK Senior third baseman from Maine South hit .414 with 19 RBI

Wedn esday, June 29, 2016 | bug lenewspapers.com inwood | from page 9 we played. Despite just hitting one fairway (the first), I was still able to hit eight greens with open space and light rough.

The course is a great starter course, but at the same time, is a great course for more skilled golfers to play if they want to see how low they can score.

The cost for 18 holes during the week is $33 for nonresidents ($49 with a cart) and $39 on the weekend ($55 with cart). For full residents, 18 holes with a cart goes from $38 to $43.

I have played the course several times in my life, but the greens when we played them a few weeks ago were faster than I have ever seen them. The course was in pretty good shape throughout, better than some other park district courses we have played.

From the tips, the first hole plays at 396 yards and is a dogleg right. That is followed by a 327-yard second hole, which features an island green. The drive is tricky as you want to either stay left of the fairway to avoid hitting over the trees, or play far enough to the right of the fairway to hit over the trees, but play a longer shot.

The third hole is a straight 518-yard par-5, but has a very tight fairway leading to the green with a large tree to the left. The fourth hole is a par3 that plays 183 yards and is a tough up-and-down if you miss right.

Next is the fifth hole, at 394 yards that plays straight.

The sixth hole is a dogleg left at 358 yards. Trees guard the dogleg, making it hard to cut off distance, while the fairway curves around 100 yards to the pin, making a long drive go through the fairway.

The seventh hole is 146 yards over water and that is followed by a 502-yard par-5, which is

reachable in two, but also has a tight driving area and green.

The ninth hole is a slight dogleg left at 362 yards.

The back nine plays at just 35 strokes with three par-3s in the first five holes. The 10th hole is a 195-yard par-3 where you have to play over a bunker in front of the green. The 11th hole is a 500-yard par-5 that doglegs left and is reachable in two if you can carry the creek, which takes a longer drive the farther left you hit you hit your drive.

No. 12 is 175 yards, while 13 is 541 yards and doglegs right. You have to play back over the creek while it doglegs, making the second shot a difficult layup.

The green is also tight with trees and bunkers in the way.

The 14th hole is the final par3 at 173 yards as you play back over the creek again. The 15th is 396 yards and goes back over the creek in front of the green.

It is a dogleg left that is covered with trees to the left, making it a long approach if on the fairway.

Hole 16 is a sharp dogleg left at 366 yards and almost requires an iron or fairway wood off the tee, unless you want to risk going through/over the trees. The 17th doglegs right and at 353 yards, can lead to a short approach with not much trouble stopping you from carrying the dogleg. The final hole is a straightaway, 295-yard hole, which makes you want to crush your drive near the green and is a definite birdie chance, although you are shooting into a small green.

While this course may not have a lot of trouble, it isn’t as easy as one might think. A bad shot can get you stuck in the woods for a few more shots. The greens are also fairly small for the most part, making iron play crucial. Overall, this is always a fun course to play.

HANNAH GAWENDA Joliet Central senior hit .468 with four doubles, 26 RBI and scored 22 runs.

CAROLYN HETT Junior from Plainfield North batted .348 with 31 RBI and five homers.

ANA ILIOPOULOS Sophomore from Maine East hit .395 with four doubles, four triples, 23 RBI and 23 runs.

HANNAH KALNICKY Batted .404 on the season with seven doubles, four triples and four home runs for Plainfield East.

She had 24 RBI as a leadoff hitter and 30 runs scored.

ERICA KRAUSE Lisle’s catcher hit .478 with nine doubles, six triples, 21 RBI and 34 runs scored.

“Erica was a crucial part to the success we had this season,” Lisle coach Trent Schalk said. “She was a leader on the team.”

ABBEY KRUZEL Pitcher from Plainfield North, Kruzel had a 1.77 ERA with 127 strikeouts, while batting .314.

“Abbey has been on varsity since her freshmen year,” Wodziak said.

“Without Abbey, I do not believe our team would have been as successful as we were this year.

She has a leadership and presence about her that is admired by her teammates and coaches alike.”

PEYTON LOESCH Plainfield East junior batted .420 on the season with a .475 OBP. She had three home runs, 10 doubles and 36 RBI. “Peyton was our three hitter in our lineup for most of the year,” Morris said. “She was extremely clutch for us in big games and was an awesome teammate. She was someone we always counted on to make big plays and have big at bats.”

MEGAN LOBIANCO Senior from Downers South had a .450 average with 12 doubles, three triples and six home runs.

She drove home 37 runners and scored 51 times.

“She is a very solid shortstop who has made only three errors all season,” Havelka said. “She bats cleanup for us and has delivered many clutch hits in that spot this season. Megan will be attending St. Louis University on an academic and softball scholarship next year.”

GIANNA MAHONEY Mahoney led Niles West this year with a .398 average to go along with seven doubles, four triples, 18 RBI and 28 runs.

“This was her first year at short so she’s had a lot of learning errors, but she has done a great job there,” West coach Nicole Reynolds said. “This kid always hustles, always works hard, always want to get better, and is always a leader. She’s been the lead offensive kid on our team all season. She leads off for us

KATIE POLASKI Downers North junior second baseman batted .531 with four doubles, three homers, 19 RBI and 34 runs scored.

“Katie has been a three-year starter on varsity,” Landschoot said. “Katie is a Loyola commit who regularly gets on base and sets the trend for the game. Her offensive and defensive abilities are second to none. Katie is a leader both on and off the field.

You would be hard pressed to find a better all-around softball player than Katie. Katie is expecting to have yet another phenomenal season next year as she caps off her career as a Trojan.”

KILEY ROBB Joliet West junior hit .392 with 34 RBI and three home runs.

AMBERLY RODRIGUEZ Sophomore centerfielder went .395 with 32 runs scored for Plainfield East.

Dave Says

SHERIFF’S SALE OF REAL ESTATE at 1116 Oakland Avenue, Joliet, IL 60435 (Single Family Home). On the 21st day of July, 2016 to be held at 12:00 noon, at the Will County Courthouse Annex, 57 N. Ottawa Street, Room 201, Joliet, IL 60432, under Case Title: Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, As Trustee for Soundview Home Loan Trust 2006-EQ1 Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006-EQ1 Plaintiff V. Robert L. Gardner Jr.; et. al. Defendant.

Baby Steps, motivation and retirement

Why the emergency fund comes before retirement in baby step system

Dear Dave, I make $38,000 a year working in the trade show industry, and I’m about to start Baby Step 3. It took 14 months to pay off $8,000 in debt for Baby Step 2, so I’m wondering how long it should take to save up my three to six months of expenses. I’ve also not done a lot toward retirement. I’m 52, and I’m worried about that.

How can I stay motivated in the Baby Steps and handle retirement worries?

Donna Dear Donna, The general time frame I look at for saving up a fully funded emergency fund is six months to a year. Your take-home pay should be about $3,000 a month, so three to six months of expenses will probably be in the neighborhood of $8,000 to $10,000. If it took you about a year to pay off that much in debt, then it should take about a year to accomplish this.

But if you start building retirement right now and have an emergency, you know what you’ll use? You’ll use your retirement.

That’s why the emergency fund comes before retirement in the Baby Steps. The average household income in America, which is often two incomes, is around $52,000. I would challenge you to think about and work

Case No. 15 CH 2478 in the Circuit Court of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit, Will County, Illinois.

By Dave Ramsey

toward what you could be doing at age 60 that will make you that much or even more.

You’re probably working really hard for that $38,000. In your 50s, if you’re starting over — or if you start making a lot more — we call that an “encore career.”

So I want you to start thinking fresh again. Don’t quit today, but you’re going to be making $38,000 eight years from now unless you start aiming at something else.

All this is as much an answer to your retirement fears as trying to leapfrog and start doing retirement without an emergency fund. Put your emergency fund in place over the next 12 months, and start doing some goal setting and thinking. Maybe you’d like to own a trade show or events company by that time.

Ask yourself, “What would I do if I could do anything?” Because you know what? You can do anything!
