Some Quicky Tips
Passbook savings accounts pay only 1%-2% per year, so steer clear. That's less than the rate of inflation! Find out whether your safe-deposit box is covered by the bank's insurance in case of fire or theft. If not, you may want to add a floater policy to insure any valuable you have stored there, Catching a cold? Docs say, "Wash your hands!" The U.S. Navy recently came up with some interesting news about catching cold. A "treatment" group was instructed to wash their hands more frequently than usual, when returning from a public place, for example, and before every meal. At the end of the study, their health was compared to a control group that had received no special hand-washing instructions. In all the program collected more than one million person-weeks of data. Results: the treatment group had 45% fewer clinic visits for respiratory infections! Cold and flu viruses linger on light switches, door knobs, and hand rails, in public places. Money passes from hand to hand all day. So, especially in winter, it's important to wash your hands frequently. May be a nuisance, but it sure beats a drippy nose! What happens when your computer backup contains the potential glitch that trashed the data you lost? Trouble! So here's a possible solution: Maintain two backups, one older & one newer. You may lose newer data, but not the whole barrel of pickles! Bite the bullet! Do it now! Finally, a kool kitchen tip: Most people know that lemon or lime juice will remove that dreaded fishy smell from the kitchen. Drop a slice down the disposer, too! . . . But did you also know that coffee grounds will take the scent of garlic off your hands? Used grounds are fine -- rub your hands in the grounds, wet or dry, then wash. (But don't try making coffee with them afterwards!) That was easy enough. Something to chew on for this issue. That's it... Unless of course you want some MORE HOT TIPS! Quickly Yours - April May
