for the same cost as your neighbor same value house who ends up with only a house It certainly is possible if you ap ply some of the basic financial rules to your life rules which are really simple but understood few Let s take a mathematical ex ample Two people each purchase a home for 100 putting down and taking a mortgage of at 11 per cent One decides to take a 15year amortization costing per month principal and interest Well call him Mr Normal After all there are dozens of articles written that tell you ho much you will save b paving for your house but all ignore how much you will lose by not building what this v riter calls a 2nd income The other decides to take a 25 year amortization period costing per month principal and interest and save 119 11 per month in mutual funds where he averages 15 per cent per year compounded monthly His total payments amount to 721 plus 11 per month exaclls the same as Mr Normal s We call him Mr Saver Over the next lo years both will have paid out times 180 months Mr Normal would have paid it all on his house and it would now be paid for Mr Saver would have paid 721 times 180 months 129 on his house and times mon would have been in vested at 15 per cent But Mr Saver still has 10 years of payments to make on his house you say It going to cost him that much more You are right there are still 10 years of payments left for Mr Saver but he decides he s not go ing to make one more payment from his wages You see the he saved and invested each month averaging per cent per vear over those 15 years would now have a value of 80 Mr Saver now decides to use that pool of money to provide him with a 2nd income and starts a mutual fund withdrawal program of per month having the pro ceeds sent directly to the mortgage holder every month to make his payment He makes no payment whatsoever from his 1st income his wages If it is a mutual fund withdrawal program and you haven used up your tax free capital gains holiday that in come comes to you almost free of any tax liability Mr Saver s pool of capital is worth By taking a monthly withdrawal of he is taking a 10 per cent withdrawal to pay that mortgage If the 80 621 con tinues earning 15 per cent and he s only taking out per cent that 80 000 will also grow b j per cent per year growing in 10 vears to over Now that 25 vears elapsed let s look at the results Both Mr Normal and Mr Saer paid out in that first exactlv the same amount 381 Neither committed one penm more in wages to the program But Mr Normal ends up with his house free and clear Mr Saver ends up with his house free and clear plus and if he wants to keep a per cent income coming from his pool of capital it would be l 000 a month additional Both paid out the same from their wages For a free Illustration of the ask

Hamilton Automobile Club offers some suggestions that should not be taken lightly The HAC maintains that the best advice for drivers out on Hallo ween night is to be aware of the unexpected Headlights should be clean and turned on at the first sign of dusk Drive carefully limiting speed on residential streets to 25 km per hour Be on the lookout for children darting out from between parked cars A right turn on red is especially dangerous as excited pirates wizards and witches may run unexpectedly across the in tersection Parents or older siblings are ad vised to accompany younger children on their tnckor treat rounds A parent can keep track of homes visited guide the children across the street and make cer tain they don wander from the immediate neighborhood Because older children usually prefer to travel with friends safety rules should be discussed before leaving home Among the rules HAC recommends that children should tnckor treat in familiar neighborhoods only agreeing with parents on the area visited and designated route Pick well lighted streets and stop only at those homes where the outside lights are on Walk on the sidewalk and not on the street If there are no sidewalks walk facing traffic far off the roadway surface Costumes should be light in color and fit correctly Use retroreflec tape to outline and decorate a costume for greater visibility Children should also be able to see clearly in all directions Face makeup and a properly worn hat will not obstruct a child s vision Halloween can be a fun time for everyone children and motorists alike says the Hamilton Automobile Club All it takes for a safe fun filled Halloween is ade quate preparation and shared responsibility on the part of both motorist and pedestrian Halton wants deposit on cans bottles Halton
