In a world of IRAs, bonds, annuities and investment property, one retirement benefit often gets overlooked, or not discussed at all, by some financial advisers: Social Security.

In retirement, you need to create as much fixed, guaranteed income as you can. Social Security is just as valuable as any of your other assets.

When is the last time you had really good sex? Not just "maintenance" sex (which is important for every relationship!), but memorable, toe-curling sex.

If you are like most people, you would probably say, "It’s been a while." We rarely prioritize our sexual pleasure and make time for our marriages, so it is no wonder when our intimacy becomes dull or uninspired.

To make matters worse, most of us suffer from a lack of education about our bodies and our sexual responses. Our culture is rife with myths about sex, and these distorted ideas about love-making can impact our pleasure and our connection with our spouse.

Why does it matter if your children learn how to organize their room and keep it that way?  How does that benefit you and them? Who even has the time to teach their children how to organize their room when you're so exhausted at the end of a long day of work and driving them from one place to another. Or maybe you think you're doing your children a favor by picking up after them to avoid the whining and complaining.

Adding one more task to an already hectic schedule can be overwhelming. Parents ultimately want their children to live a happy and fulfilling life. Teaching them healthy habits for life-long learning, like organization, benefits them in so many ways.

So often a new beauty gadget comes along that makes bold statements, but is nothing more than the subject of a slick infomercial. Red Light Therapy is not that. In fact, Red Light Therapy is a technology developed by NASA for plant growth on shuttle missions when it was discovered there are many more benefits. It is a highly effective age-proofing device that's non-invasive and can be performed in the privacy of your own home. Many beauty professionals and doctors use these actual devices. The results you will achieve are outstanding.

There is much ado about aging these days. We worry about looking old, feeling old, getting old, and being old. We definitely do not feel good about old. Old conjures up thoughts about osteoporosis, sexual dysfunction, loss of sight, loss of hair, loss of hearing, loss of mind and the list goes on.

Satchel Paige said, "How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?"

This is an interesting question. How would you answer? The problem with the question is that in order to answer it, we have to make an assumption about age. What does it feel like to be 30, 50, 80?

You look in the mirror and cannot deny it—you are getting older. Sure, we are aging every day of our lives, but there comes the point in time when it starts to show. Creases on the forehead, laugh lines, wrinkles around the eyes, and stubborn belly fat.

Aging bodies are hard to hide, but aging attitudes might not be as evident. Self-sabotaging thoughts begin to invade your mind: I should have done this. I wish I had done that. I can’t do it now. I missed my chance. I’m getting too old. It’s too late.

According to an August 29, 2018, article in U.S. News & World Report, a study recently published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine noted that prescriptions given to men 40 and older for testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) more than tripled between the years 2001 and 2011. However, the Endocrine Society estimates that only 3 percent of men truly have a testosterone deficiency. An even more astonishing fact? About one-fourth of the men prescribed TRT during those years had not received a baseline testosterone test. Fortunately, the study adds that after these facts were made public in 2013, TRT prescriptions for men 30 and older decreased by 48 percent over the next three years.
