Your safety is in your own hands. So, when out on the road, it is your duty to ensure your safety. Danny, a first- time car-buyer, was conscious of his role in fortifying his own safety while out on the road. Many states have a minimum law that requires motorists to prove financial responsibility when driving on the road. You either must purchase the minimum auto insurance or you must post a bond.

When you take care of someone, you are also taken care of! It's like Karma. You do good, you get back good in return. Ben and Stephanie had adopted a baby girl because they felt their family wasn't complete otherwise. This act of adopting children is not only a good and kind deed where another human being is benefiting from your benevolence, but in doing so, you get assistance from Uncle Sam. bit.ly/azmg0031

In life, you never know what is waiting for you around the next corner. Threats like hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires, or some other natural disasters, break-ins, vandalism, electronic hacking, and other malicious events might be prowling around waiting to pounce on you anytime during the year. You never know when a disaster will strike or what damage it will cause. There may be little or nothing you can do to prevent your home or office from being destroyed or damaged, but you can at least ensure that no matter what happens, your tax, financial, and other personal records will be safe.
Everyone should have a plan in place for disaster recovery of records to prove ownership or relationship. These are records that insurance companies and federal, state, and local governments require to assist you in the recovery of a loss.

You can take a few simple steps to protect your tax and financial records in case of a disaster: bit.ly/azmg0030

I am sharing this with a very heavy heart.

For over 26 years,candy has been a part of our office and a part of our family.

When someone has been beside you through that many years, they become woven into the fabric of your everyday life.

Candy has given so much of herself over the years, and it is heartbreaking to now be facing the reality that we are losing her to cancer.

There really are no words that feel big enough for a moment like this.

26 years is a lifetime of memories, conversations, laughter, hard days, ordinary days and countless moments that you never realize are so precious until you are faced with losing the person who was a part of them.

I am sharing this GoFundMe in hopes that we can give something back to Candy during a unimaginably difficult time.

If you are able to donate, no matter the amount, it would help Candy and her family.

If you are not able to donate, sharing this page and keeping Candy in your thoughts and prayers would allow so many others to be informed of Candy's journey.

Candy has spent her whole life helping and being there for others, so now it's my hope we can come together and be there for her.

Please keep Candy in your thoughts and prayers.
We love you so very much Candy Jordan

The knowledge and action to prepare for the future give you "peace of mind". The present is a gift that we enjoy, but the future is unknown, so to secure yourself and your family for the future, it is necessary to take certain steps in the present. For instance, a lot of people are not aware that a Durable Power of Attorney may be necessary, even if you are married. That way, your spouse will be able to act on your behalf if you are incapacitated.
If you act as an agent or POA for anyone, be sure to understand the Agency law of the state you live in. Consult an attorney and have them give you instructions in writing as to your responsibilities as a POA. When signing documents as a POA, always sign your name and the initials “POA” after your signature, to let others know you have permission to act. Do not sign the name of the principal. There are many kinds of Powers of Attorney.
Some of the Powers of Attorney are listed: bit.ly/azmg0028

Helping your children financially by teaching self-reliance is one of the greatest gifts you can offer your children. Through teachings and setting a good example, you can help your children become financially responsible and independent adults. However, there is a fine line between helping your kids get started and enabling them to stay dependent. If your children live at home, expect them to contribute to the household.
Here are some considerations: bit.ly/azmg0027

Holding those little ones in your arms and slowly guiding them through the path of life is surely one of the most joyous and fulfilling experiences of a lifetime. But there is no denying that it can be hard on your pocketbook. Catherine, a mother of two children aged 7 and 10, experiences this dichotomy between the pleasure of child rearing and its pinching effect on the pocketbook. So, to alleviate the effect, you must utilize the option of child and dependent care tax credits to the best of your abilities.

This week, we will discuss child and dependent care tax credits and filing Form 2441. If you have a child under the age of 13, or an incapacitated spouse or parent, you may be able to take a dependent care credit on your individual tax return. bit.ly/azmg0026
