Debit Card Compromised? 

Here’s why you should think twice 

before using your debit card. 

This past year I have had 2 debit 

cards at First Bank and 1 at BBT 

which were compromised by thieves. 

The charges were covered by the 

banks but what a nuisance it was to 

contact credit card, insurance, and 

other companies with a new debit 

card to pay monthly bills. 

For thieves, Debit Cards represent a 

lucrative spending opportunity. 

In 2017, the number of debit cards 

compromised at ATMs and merchant 

card readers — typically via skimming 

devices that capture card data — rose 

10 percent, according to a new report 

from data analytics company FICO. 

The increase follows two years of 

larger spikes in this kind of fraud, 

said Michael Betron, senior director 

of product management at FICO. 

“If you look at it over the last three 

years, the rate of compromise has 

almost doubled, every year over the 

last three years,” he said. 

Don’t be so quick to pull out your 

debit card for an on-line or in-store 

purchase. Fraud protections on a 

credit card are superior to those on a 

debit card. 

“Credit is better than debit for all 

transactions, because of the better 

consumer protections,” said Paul 

Stephens, director of policy and advocacy 

for the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse. 

When at the gas pump and other 

merchants and screen says Debit/ 

Credit, always choose credit. 

Be cautious about how your debit 

card links to your various bank 

accounts, said Stephens. That could 

give thieves access to more of your 

cash. For example, your bank might 

allow you to connect a savings account 

to your debit or ATM card. 

A better option might be to keep your 

checking account balance low, and 

hold your savings in a different financial 

institution, Stephens said. You 

can also opt out from overdraft protection, 

meaning a debit transaction 

that would overdraw your account 

will be declined instead. 

Monitor your bank accounts regularly 

to spot and report any suspected 

problems quickly. Depending on your 

financial institution, you may also 

be able to set up alerts for large 

purchases and other red-flag transactions. 

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF 

Shield your data. Use only one card 

for on-line purchases. Send bill 

payments from your bank instead 

of giving debit card number to third 

parties to pay cell phones etc. 

Enable 2 step verification now offered 

by VISA and other systems. 

Don’t use the same passwords. Get 

free password managers like Last- 

Pass or Dashlane stream hard to 

crack passwords. 

Don’t ever use unsecured WI-FI. 

Thieves can intercept your data. 

Avoid using ATM machines. 

When you are traveling alert your 

bank. Several times I have tried to 

use a debit card and it was declined 

as a security measure from my bank. 

Check your activity every day. 

With debit card fraud you have 60 

days from the fraudulent transaction 

to alert your bank. If you miss 

that 60-day window your bank might 

not cover any of your losses.. If you 

realize that your card or PIN was lost 

or stolen, you have just two business 

days to report the problem and be 

liable for only $50 in fraudulent 

charges. If you wait longer than two 

days (but fewer than 60) you may be 

liable for up to $500. 

Last year there were almost 2,000 

breaches whereby over 36 million records 

and 15.4 million were victims 

of fraud according to IDTHEFTCEN- 

TER.org.

Are You “Eating 

Your Money? 

Track your food spending for a 

month or so and you could well be 

horrified at the amount of money 

that is literally going down the toilet. 

Food is usually your biggest living 

expense after paying your rent 

or mortgage. Rent and mortgage 

payments fit into the category of 

financial commitments you can’t 

change –unless, of course, you 

move house. Food costs, on the 

other hand, while essential, are 

something you have control over. 

$80,000! 

These days people lead busy lifestyles 

and don’t mind paying extra 

for convenience. As well as being expensive, 

the food choices we make 

are not always healthy. Paying more 

attention to grocery shopping can be 

good for your body as well as for your 

budget.

If you find it hard to save or if your 

living expenses seem high, take 

a good look at your food budget. 

Chances are you are eating your 

money. 

Under the heading of food we 

need to include takeaways, bought 

lunches, restaurant meals coffee 

and wine. No doubt there is the 

occasional sneaky bar of chocolate 

or meat pie in the mix as well. It all 

adds up to a very big total. 

Here are some easy ways to cut back 

on your grocery spend while still 

eating great food: 

Cut down on the number of times 

you go to the supermarket. Every 

time you shop it’s easy to slip in a 

few items that weren’t on the list 

and which aren’t essential. Sticking 

to a set routine of shopping no more 

than once a week means you have to 

pace your eating to make your food 

supplies last.

There are some people who love entertaining 

either at home or restaurants 

or who regularly feed extended 

family members. Feeding others 

as well as yourself is a wonderful 

thing to do, so long as you can truly 

afford it. 

Plan meals one or two weeks ahead 

so you have all the ingredients you 

need on hand. That way you won’t 

have to make extra trips to the supermarket. 

Prepare meals ahead and freeze or 

reheat them. Cooking in big batches 

means you can buy in bulk. Having 

ready cooked meals on hand when 

you are busy means fewer takeaway 

or convenience meals.

The amount you spend on food will 

be partly determined by where you 

live and of course, the number of 

family members. However, food 

costs also depend on your lifestyle 

– how much and what type of food 

you put in your shopping cart. 

The most recent survey indicates 

the latest numbers for a four-member 

family: a thrifty food plan, $146 

a week; a low-cost food plan, $191 

a week; a moderate-cost plan, 

$239; a liberal plan, $289 a week. 

That’s a whopping $143 a week

Eat less meat. A couple of vegetarian 

meals a week saves money and

Keep a few treats and deli snacks on

to go out for coffee or lunch. 

Cutting back on certain expenses 

such as alcohol and takeaways is a 

lot easier than trying to cut them out 

altogether. It’s likely you will be more 

motivated to make changes if you 

focus on healthier eating choices 

rather than saving money, however 

with careful planning you should 

achieve both. 

Of course, there are times when you 

just have to cut yourself some slack.

Affordable Classic Cars 

We admire classic cars from a 

distance as unobtainable trophies 

for wealthy enthusiasts. We dream 

about driving them, but don’t bother 

shopping for them because of our 

assumptions that these head turners 

are out of reach. 

There are more affordable classic 

cars that are easy to live with than 

you might think. You don’t even need 

to know a lot about cars to own them 

and drive them. If you’re getting tired 

of your boring car and craving something 

a little more interesting, here 

are some classic cars that anyone 

can own. 

#1 Original Volkswagen Beetle 

The longest running automotive platform 

of all time, the original people’s 

car is still an icon. Its quirky design 

and everyday practicality make it an 

appealing classic that can easily be 

daily driven. 

The car made a few changes here 

and there over its massive 65-year 

production run, but many features of 

the car endured. 

that everyone loves. This one will 

have more people stopping you in 

the parking lot to talk about your 

car than anything else on this list. 

Famously called “the mullet of cars”, 

the El Camino is business in the 

front, party in the back. While everyone 

knows it’s a classic, not everyone 

knows how attainable they are. 

You might not find a pristine 1970 

SS at an affordable price, but there 

are plenty of other El Caminos out 

there for under $10k. 

#4 Datsun 240Z 

Globally known as the Nissan S30 

and sold as the Datsun 240Z, this 

was a landmark in Japanese sports 

cars. Its stunning design with some 

noticeable European influence made 

the car a hit. It didn’t hurt that it 

had the performance to back up its 

looks. The Z Car started production 

in 1969 and is still alive through a 

series of successors to this day. 

placed with black rubber bumpers. 

They’re pretty ugly compared to the 

chrome alternative, but they don’t 

come close to ruining the look of the 

handsome roadster. Even the clean 

ones go for under $5k. 

#6 Porsche 944 

Purists will tell you this wasn’t a real 

Porsche because of its off-brand 

configuration. It had a liquid cooled 

inline four cylinder engine in the 

front of the car rather than the traditional 

air cooled boxer engine behind 

the driver. The purists can say what 

they want, but this is a perfectly 

legitimate sports car. This is great 

for people who like Porsche, but are 

afraid of the maintenance on a more 

traditional model. 

#7 Chevy Bel Air 

The 25 year model run make the 

Bel Air a much more versatile model 

than just the ubiquitous “57 Chevy”. 

While the 50’s models are the most 

iconic for good reasons, Bel Airs 

were also formidable muscle cars 

through the mid-1970’s. The fun of 

Bel Airs is the multitude of configurations. 

of it as a muscle car, the original 

idea of the Charger was a personal 

luxury car similar to the Buick Riviera 

or Ford Thunderbird. Of course you 

can get an R/T with a monstrous 

Hemi V8, but there’s a lot more to 

the classic Dodge Charger than just 

that. 

#9 Mercedes R107 

This version of the classic Mercedes 

SL Class is right in the sweet spot 

of affordability right now. It was 

available as a soft-top convertible, 

removable hardtop, or you could get 

the C107 which was the same car as 

a coupe with a fixed roof. The United 

States was the biggest market for 

these cars with over half of them 

being sold here. 

Any used Mercedes is a great way 

to make you look wealthier than you 

actually are, why not do it with a fun 

roadster? 

#2 Ford Mustang 

Another car with a long, storied production 

run, the Mustang has several 

affordable styles to offer. From the 

legendary first generation, the boxy 

Fox body, and more modern examples, 

Mustangs will get you noticed. 

Mustangs aren’t just designed to 

look good and be fun to drive; they’re 

also designed to be low-cost. That 

makes them abundant and affordable 

today. 

#3 Chevy El Camino 

The El Camino is a classic oddity 

#5 MG MGB 

MG is a largely forgotten brand 

today, but they were one of the premier 

manufacturers of British roadsters 

for decades. One of their most 

famous examples is the MGB. It was 

available as a roadster convertible or 

as a GT. 

The MGB experienced a styling 

change that’s still controversial 

among enthusiasts. In 1974, its 

sleek chrome bumpers were re- 

They could be had as coupes, sedans, 

four door station wagons, two 

door shooting brakes, and even convertibles. 

In classic American fashion, 

they had a list of different V8’s 

available under the hood. However, 

some of the more common models 

are going on the cheap. 

#8 Dodge Charger 

The Dodge Charger is synonymous 

with American muscle. It was based 

on the intermediate sized Dodge 

Coronet, but available only as a fastback 

coupe. While most of us think 

#10 Chevy Camaro 

The Chevy Camaro is the crosstown 

rival to the Ford Mustang. The 

current sixth generation Camaro is 

arguably the best one ever made, 

but there is a lot to be desired in the 

classics. 

Camaros are fun to shop for because 

you can decide on just about 

any budget and you can find a 

Camaro that fits in that price range. 

You can spend under $5k on a late 

second gen-early fourth gen or you 

can spend just about as much as 

you want on some of the more iconic 

models like a first gen Z/28. Get a 

V8 if you want to go fast or get a V6 

if you just want to look cool.

In July 1922, The American Girl magazine, 

published by Girl Scouts of the 

USA, featured an article by Florence 

E. Neil, a local director in Chicago, 

Illinois. Miss Neil provided a cookie 

recipe that had been given to the 

council’s 2,000 Girl Scouts. She 

estimated the approximate cost of 

ingredients for six- to seven-dozen 

cookies to be 26 to 36 cents. The 

cookies, she suggested, could be 

sold by troops for 25 or 30 cents per 

dozen. 

Throughout the decade, Girl Scouts 

in different parts of the country 

continued to bake their own simple 

sugar cookies with their mothers and 

with help from the community. These 

cookies were packaged in wax paper 

bags, sealed with a sticker, and sold 

door to door.

Half of your friends swear that 

buying a car is the only way to go. 

The other half? They’re just about 

ready to trade in their sedan for 

a souped-up SUV. Yep, car buying 

is often a touchy subject. But the 

truth is, it’s a super-personal decision 

that depends solely on your 

own lifestyle. On the fence about 

what’s right for you? Here are a few 

reasons you might want to lease, 

and a couple reasons to consider 

buying instead. 

YOU’LL HAVE LOWERPAYMENTS 

Got $30K laying around? No? 

Neither do most people, which is 

why they take out loans to purchase 

new cars. And when they do, 

not only do they pay back the cost 

of the car, they also have to pay 

interest every month. On the other 

hand, when you lease a car, you 

primarily pay for the car’s depreciation 

so you could spend roughly 30 

percent less on monthly payments 

compared with the monthly cost of 

a loan to own a car. 

In fact, 2017 data has shown lease 

specials offered by dealerships 

going for as low as $200 a month 

compared with $500 a month if you 

buy a brand-new car. 

YOU’LL ALWAYS PAY SOMETHING 

Here’s the thing. While lease 

payments may require less money 

up front and per month, you can 

get caught in a cycle of continually 

leasing, meaning you’ll always have 

a payment. However, the typical 

loan agreement for buying a new 

car is about 69 months, according 

to 2017 data. This means that if 

you’re planning to own your vehicle 

for more than six years, you eventually 

won’t have car payments at all. 

GET A NEW CAR EVERY 3 YEARS 

Lease contracts typically only last 

for three years. And if you choose 

to turn in your leased car, that 

means you can start a new lease 

on a brand-new car, so you’ll always 

be driving something that’s in its 

most trouble-free years. If driving the 

latest model vehicle (either for the 

shiny factor or the safety factor) is 

something that’s important to you, 

leasing is definitely the way to go. 

BUT YOU’RE EXPECTED TO KEEP IT 

IN PERFECT CONDITION 

Leasing a car is just like renting an 

apartment: Even though you have 

full run of the place for a set amount 

of time, it’s not technically yours. 

And when you hand the keys back 

over, they expect it to be left in tiptop 

shape. Same goes for a leased 

vehicle, which can be tougher than it 

sounds (especially if messy kids are 

involved). 

YOU DON’T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE 

RESALE... 

When the time comes that you’re 

ready to move on and get a new 

car, you won’t have to worry about 

depreciation and resale. The dealership 

you leased it from will handle 

everything—all you have to do is turn 

in the keys and decide what kind of 

car you want to lease next. It’s a big 

weight off your shoulders. 

YOU’RE ONLY ALLOWED X MILES 

When you picture your next car, do 

you see cool a set of wheels you can 

use to zoom around town? Or do you 

have visions of a nice, roomy vehicle 

that’s perfect for road trips? If it’s 

the latter, know this: Lease terms 

always come with mileage caps. 

Meaning, if you go over a certain 

number of miles, you’ll have to pay a 

fee. (In most cases, you’re restricted 

to 10,000 to 12,000 miles annually—after 

that, you’ll pay around 25 

cents a mile for any overage.) So be 

realistic about how you’re actually 

using the vehicle—if the answer is “a 

lot,” leasing might not be the way to 

go.

appalling and unacceptable. The mission 

of Caring Hearts for Canines is 

to rescue and rehome dogs at risk of 

being euthanized in high kill shelters 

and to educate the public in order to 

decrease the proliferation of these 

unwanted dogs. 

RADAR 

Radar has only sunshine and adoration 

in his heart for everyone he 

meets! 

He was brought to the shelter after 

being dumped from a vehicle. 

He is a happy, playful boy who loves 

to play with his toys and romp around 

our yard. Radar is a young, Pitbull Terrier 

mix just under 30 lbs. 

He has been neutered and is up to 

date on vaccinations. He would love 

nothing more than to find his new 

family to adore and will have you smiling 

ear to ear at his fun-loving nature! 

BUCK 

Buck is a sweet soul. He enjoys attention 

from his humans and is independent 

too. He loves to be thrown 

toys or play a little tug of war but is 

also content with a leisurely stroll. 

He did very nicely with one of our 

younger school-age volunteers and 

was respectful of their smaller size. 

Buck is a neutered 4-year old who 

was surrendered by his owners who 

were moving to Alaska, along with 

his sibling Kathy. 

He is a Siberian Husky and Irish 

Setter mix. Buck needs a safe yard 

for play/exercise, and a family with 

an active lifestyle.

Caring Hearts For Canines was founded 

in 2014 by Jennifer Chopping in 

an effort to save dogs from high kill 

shelters that would otherwise be euthanized. 

According to the American Society for 

the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals 

(ASPCA) 1.4 million dogs are euthanized 

in U.S. shelters every year (AS- 

PCA,

finds these numbers to be both 

Caring Hearts for Canines strives to 

save as many shelter dogs as possible 

and to give them a life filled with 

the love and compassion they deserve. 

Caring Hearts For Canines operations 

include providing appropriate 

veterinary care including, spay and 

neuter services, vaccinations, foster 

care, socialization, and transportation 

for adopted dogs to their new forever 

homes. 

Additionally, Caring Hearts for Canines 

works to educate the public 

through community outreach about 

the issues of spaying and neutering, 

vaccinating, heartworm prevention 

and proper care and maintenance of 

their canine companions. 

Caring Hearts for Canines has an 

ever growing network of volunteers 

and collaborative partners who are 

indispensable to its efforts to save 

the lives of dogs.

Seven Lakes News January Edition Page 17 

I am a 65-year-old man. When my 

grandfather was my age, he carried 

a walking stick and was shuffling 

towards his grave. Happily, my own 

prospects — and those of many 

of the 760 million people in the 

world who are over the age of 60 — 

couldn’t be more different. 

Statistics show all too clearly why we 

cannot afford to stick our heads in 

the sand and continue to view older 

people as a sickly burden rather 

than a valuable resource. At the end 

of the 19th century, in Germany, Bismarck 

invented the social security 

system we know today. At that time, 

few people reached the age of 65, 

and those who did were likely to be 

in poor health. 

Now, 130 years later, we still deal 

with aging as if it was the 19th 

century. Life expectancy is now 

is 35 years longer than it was in 

Bismarck’s time. Those 30 years of 

life after work must be made productive. 

If not, the cost of maintaining a 

rapidly growing older population will 

have a devastating effect on younger 

generations, who simply won’t be 

able to generate the tax income to 

support older people’s quality of life 

and growing healthcare costs. 

We need an entirely different approach, 

something that recognizes 

that growing into old age is a long 

transition taking 20 or 30 years, 

rather than a sudden cutting off 

point. It should mean more flexibility 

in the workplace. It should include 

staggered retirements and a greater 

use of sabbaticals, so that an 

older person can go away for a year, 

recharge his or her batteries, and 

come back with more energy and 

new skills. 

Us baby boomers are precisely the 

generation who are bringing about 

this revolution. Never before have we 

seen a cohort hitting the age of 65 

who are so well informed, so wealthy 

and in such good health. In the same 

way that my generation transformed 

adolescence into a protracted period 

of experimentation, creativity and 

rebellion, so too are we redefining 

what it means to age. 

The New “Boomers” 

We will not allow our rights to be 

ignored and we will not be fobbed off 

with the idea that all we are fit for is 

a spot of light volunteering. If we fail 

to adapt to the new reality, we risk a 

social convulsion, a fracture dividing 

the generations which pits one set of 

interests against another. 

Baby boomers are leading the way, 

showing younger people that getting 

old is the best thing that can happen 

to them. There is only one alternative 

to aging. 

There are so many older adults in 

Florida that they’ve created their 

own city. The Villages, located smack 

in the center of the state, has a 

population of 157,000 people. By 

design and by fiat, virtually all of its 

residents are over the age of 55. The 

Villages has its own culture, its own 

norms, its own lifestyle. The primary 

mode of transportation is the golf 

cart. Tens of thousands of the little 

white vehicles crisscross the landscape. 

Accordingly, the community’s 

slogan is “Free golf for life!” It is the 

sort of arrangement one looks at 

and says, “Only in Florida.” 

But Florida is not as unique as you 

might think. One of America’s numerous 

(and sometimes infamous) 

Baby Boomers turns 65 every eight 

seconds. In about a decade, we will 

become a nation of Florida’s. 

Making such a society livable will require 

far more than golf carts. It will 

demand a great deal from all of us 

— entrepreneurs, employers, policymakers 

and, yes, as individuals. In a 

world in which nearly half the population 

is over the age of 50, we will 

have to start thinking of older people 

differently, more expansively. 

In the mid-to-late 1800s, antiquated 

medical theory suggested that the 

only healthy thing for older adults to 

do was rest. Surviving well into the 

21st century is the idea that older 

people are “supposed” to be consumers 

of ideas, work, products and 

culture, but never producers: always 

takers; never givers. 

Today, ask anyone over the age of 60 

or so if she wants to sit in a rocking 

chair for the rest of her life — on 

average, a far longer life than at the 

turn of the 20th century — and they 

will laugh you out of the room. 

Living longer and better may mean 

working longer. It may mean a lifetime 

of learning and growth. We may 

see older adults in roles to which we 

are not accustomed: retail, manufacturing, 

teaching and delivering 

healthcare (not just receiving it). The 

energy we draw from our older population 

may grow to become one of 

our most valuable resources. Businesses 

founded by people over the 

age of 50 are already major sources 

of employment across the nation. 

Products designed with older people 

in mind must go beyond vitamins, 

walkers and pill-reminder systems. 

An aging society has given rise to 

a new multi-trillion-dollar market of 

consumers who want not just to be 

taken care of but also live out aspirations 

once considered impossible in 

old age. 

In particular, technologies no longer 

should be built on the antiquated 

idea that older people must remain 

separate from society and at 

rest. Consider those simplified cell 

phones that only call one’s kids 

and 911: a technology of universal 

connection reduced down to two 

contacts. Once upon a time, such 

devices made sense for many older 

adults. But as tech-savvy boomers 

age into their 70s and beyond, most 

will demand tech with full functionality 

that is also highly usable. No one 

who uses an iPhone now is going to 

switch back to a push-button device 

willingly, no matter their age. 

But as we become a nation of Floridas, 

we must be careful to avoid 

producing too many of those most 

peculiarly Floridian phenomena: 

communities like The Villages. 

Nothing is wrong with The Villages. 

Its residents are very happy and 

that’s the most important consideration 

about a place where people 

live. It offers a lifestyle that is attractive 

to many wonderful people, and 

a deserved respite from youth-oriented 

culture. But it also represents a 

troubling possible future for our era 

of longevity: one in which the young 

and old segregate themselves from 

each other. 

We continue to write a story of old 

age that retires people away from everyone 

else, rather than finding ways 

to engage them, to activate their 

talents. In response, it’s only natural 

that older people would choose to 

cloister themselves away. 

The challenge we all face is to actively 

build an age-ready nation. The 

longevity economy in the U.S. alone 

adds up to over a hundred million 

older people, many of whom have 

the potential to live beyond the age 

of 100. We need to be ready. 

A successful nation of Florida’s will 

require so much more than van rides 

and pills and home health aides. 

More than anything, we as individuals 

will have to rethink old age, both 

for the sake of those older than us 

and, more selfishly, for our own future 

selves. Done right will improve 

quality of life across the board. After 

all, if we’re lucky, the future of old 

age is the future for everyone.
