RICHMOND GARDENS Beautifully maintained and in superb condition. Much loved and waiting for you!
REVOLUTIONIZE YOUR WASH EXPERIENCE WITH THERMADOR STAR-SAPPHIRE® DISHWASHER INCLUDING INDUSTRY LEADING FEATURES LIKE A 20-MINUTE HOT WATER CYCLE AND THE POWERFUL STARDRY™ WITH ZEOLITE™, PROVIDING THE ULTIMATE DRYING EXPERIENCE WITHOUT THE USE OF HARSH CHEMICALS.
Zeolite is a naturally occurring mineral from volcanic ash. It has been used to clean nuclear spills like Chernobyl, so you get the picture about how powerful it really is. Zeolite is packed in the back of the dishwasher and is reputed to increase heat and absorb moisture to aid in the drying process. Most dishwashers do not have a real dry cycle anymore, just JetDry and residual heat from the hot water wash. So wet dishes and plastics are a common issue. A 20-minute cycle with an effective dry would be the new standard...by far. StarDry™ with Zeolite™, an exclusive Thermador drying solution that provides the most exceptional drying power in the world. With StarDry™ with Zeolite™, the need to towel dry or air dry items is reduced, helping ensure that dishes emerge dry.

Thermador reinvents innovation by featuring the fastest hot water cycle in the industry. The Star Speed® cycle, exclusive to the Star-Sapphire® Dishwasher, is the fastest* in the industry at an unprecedented 20 minutes. If these features are not innovative enough… every StarSapphire® Dishwasher comes armed with Push-to-Open options that allow easier unloading, even when your hands are full. They have smooth glide racks that minimize friction, noise and feel smooth so you can discretely fill the Dishwasher while entertaining. Easily load every culinary tool into the StarSapphire® Entertainer’s Drawer whether you’re placing delicate or hard-to-place utensils. Perhaps the coolest feature is Star Glow – which illuminates the dishwasher in 6 sparkling levels of blue or white light, while providing the option of any interior light colour. It’s like a disco ball in your very own kitchen… so when the door automatically pops open at the end of the cycle… you can be mesmerized by any colour that matches your mood. With Home Connect, you can even control those colours remotely. Thermador dishwashers are for those who want to make every element of their kitchens - and their homes - exceptional. ◆

TESTIMONIAL
We recommend Nutan Brown with full confidence to anyone selling and/or buying a home. From our first meeting to the final closing of our home, dealing with Nutan was such a pleasure. She made tasks effortless and we were at ease throughout the process. Her recommendations were very much appreciated and greatly assisted us in all aspects leading up to our move. Selling a family home is a very daunting and stressful undertaking. Nutan managed the entire process very effectively and with empathy. Her high professional standards and knowledge of the community were attributes that we valued and benefited from. Nutan is truly a gem. - Barb and Larry Barrett

FINANCIAL
BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN MONEY & LIFE Article by Domenic Amodeo | Insurance Broker
THERE IS A COMMON MISCONCEPTION THAT LIFE AND MONEY ARE TWO SEPARATE THINGS: THAT WE HAVE A LIFE ON ONE HAND, AND WE HAVE OUR FINANCES ON THE OTHER. THE REALITY IS THAT WE ONLY HAVE LIFE, AND THAT WE USE MONEY TO HELP SUPPORT IT. IT SEEMS LIKE A SMALL DISTINCTION, BUT IT IS A VERY IMPORTANT ONE TO UNDERSTAND WHEN CREATING A FINANCIAL PLAN.
WHY FINANCIAL PLANNING MATTERS Many people look at financial planning as the mature and responsible thing to do. Generally, everyone agrees that they should have things such as life insurance, retirement accounts and a budget. However, we often forget why these things are important and figuring it out starts with asking yourself why they matter to you. As you read this article looking to understand the basics of financial literacy, ask yourself, why is financial planning important to you? It isn’t a trick question and there is no right answer. The reason financial planning may be important to you could be different than why it is important to someone else. Perhaps you are looking to start a business? Is it to travel often? Maybe you want to spend more quality time with your family? Is it to retire early?
16
Why is this important to know? Because more often than not, people do not follow through with their financial plan. People delay getting a will, they don’t follow through with their budget, and they don’t save diligently. This isn’t because they lack discipline - it’s because there is a lack of clarity on “why” they’re doing it in the first place! Meanwhile, this clarity can act as the bridge between life and money and a desire to make it happen. Recently, I had a client who had a hard time saving. He wanted to save, but he would always end up splurging on entertainment and shopping. He was frustrated because he felt like he wasn’t getting anywhere financially, even though he was a decade into the workforce. After sitting down with him to get a clearer idea of his “why” when it came to saving, he felt like he was falling behind in his saving as most of his friends were settling down,
getting married and having children. I asked him, “Let’s assume your friends are in the same financial position as you. What do you want to save towards?” From there, we uncovered his desire to take a year off to travel internationally and explore the world. Together, we worked to find a number he wanted to set aside for that trip, set up an emergency fund, protect his income, set up a savings plan, and considered other financial areas. His new financial plan now has him going on the trip of a lifetime in two years. Not to my surprise, he had no problem following through with his savings plan from then on and it wasn’t because he had this newfound discipline and willpower to save. No, what he needed all along was to create a financial plan that genuinely excited him. Life events and transitions extend beyond marriage, home ownership and retirement. However, many people (even financial planners!) can sometimes assume that this is all there is to life. But what about everything else you want to experience? Like it or not, most of those things will cost money, too. Knowing that, wouldn’t it be important to consider those things in your financial plan as well? When we are emotionally connected with our financial plan, we follow through with it. We execute on our plans to make sure we reach our goals. We bridge the gap between money and life and, perhaps most importantly, we find the motivation to get more excited about our lives than ever! ◆ Domenic is Founder/Principal of AMCO Insurance & Financial Services.
