A typical high school curriculum offers anything from the traditional subjects of language arts, algebra and U.S. history to the not-so-traditional subjects, such as gardening, therapeutic dance and business technology. Colleges and universities offer an even wider range. But despite all those academic options, the educational system is leaving a void in the lives of many students. The one thing not being taught in schools and higher education is how to manage money and prepare for retirement. And in the eyes of high school and college graduate...

1. Take an inventory of the supplies your child already has. You’ll be amazed at the forgotten notebooks, pens, markers and rulers you can find in a drawer or last year’s backpack. Don’t forget the stash of pens and pencils offered at events held throughout the year in Akwesasne. That’s enough to provide every child in North America with at least five pens each. And, include your kids in the process for a valuable lesson about budgeting. 2. Have your child try on last year’s clothing. Make a list of what needs to be replaced. Ask other par...
By Jennifer Herne, LVT Oh no! The last few days have been horrible, for me anyways. I am not a summer heat type of person. I prefer the cold. I know there are a lot of you who enjoy this heat, but those of you with pets should take precautions during times of high heat and humidity. Did you know that dogs cannot sweat like we do? I am sure you have seen your dog panting, this is when their mouth is open, tongue is hanging out and they are breathing heavily. This is one of the ways they remove...
By Jennifer Herne, LVT How can anyone resist a cute little kitten? I know I can't, but as a responsible pet owner you should be aware of the things that come along with acquiring that cute little ball of fluff. There are some items needed when you get that kitten, they include: a litter box, kitten food of a quality brand, scratching pads and posts, toys, and dishes, just to name a few. The most important thing you can do when you get the kitten is schedule a visit to your veterinarian, which...
Lower wages and higher medical costs are putting retiring women at greater risk for financial ruin than men, according to a recent survey. Seventy percent of nursing home residents are women, and the average cost of a private nursing home room is more than $90,000 per year in the United States according to AARP. As well, retired women pay about $600 more per year than men on out-of-pocket health costs. Many women put their family’s needs before their own security. According to the 17th Annual Transamerica Retirement Survey, half of working w...

Millennials could be risking their financial future as they craft ways to tackle their student loans, car payments and credit card debt. New research indicates that many are overusing credit cards, racking up fees with late payments or overdrawing checking accounts and, in some cases, even taking loans against 401(k) plans. What’s worse: Millennials may have less wiggle room for financial mistakes. In many cases, Millennials could be earning about 20% less than their parents did when they were in the 25- to 34-year-old age range, according t...

By Jennifer Herne, LVT Welcome to the second part of our discussion on community cats. How do you help them? Most people say by feeding them, but this sometimes creates more problems. Sometimes our best intentions may create more problems. There are so many cats here in Akwesasne, and everywhere for that matter, because owners aren't properly educated about preventing litters of kittens and why spaying and neutering is so important. The single most important thing you can do as a cat owner is to...
