Every woman does A good exercise is to. review your financial situation realisti- cally at ieaSt. every, two years. *ere are some simple guidelines .that will help. '1. If you are married, ask your- self these questions: i~ibw 'Much money' would I need • each month if my husband Were rib longer around? --Vow much a year? And for how many years? • Would' this be enough in five, =10 or 20 years when inflation will hav reduced the value of today's • dollar? -What steps have been taken to assure that the children get an education and possibly go on to . college, regardless of what hap- pens? ' —If anything ha n � happened to my husband, am I in a position to go back .;to.work? �-Could I get ,a good; paying: job? 2. Review those questions with your husband. If there's a bond of trust between you, you'll be able to discuss them intelligen y. 3. Work with your hush nd to develop a realistic insurance pro- gram. 4. Set up your own savings pro- gram. You may never need it, but it's a marvellous feeling to know it's there. 5. Be positive. Only one man in four dies prematurely today. Work with your husband to develop a good retirement plan that will let you both take it easy and do the things you have always wanted to do, when the time comes. Make sure you make provisions against inflation. If you happen to be single, di- vorced or separated, here are some questions .to ask yourself:. 1. Possibly you have children, or are supporting aged parents. What amount of money you have to leave them should any- thing happen to you? 2. If you havektio dependents you may feelydi'i don't need a financial plan. But you don't want to work forever!

Possibly you would like to start your own business. A good savings plan can make it possible. And remember that even a single woman should have some life insurance to take Care of funeral and other ex- penses should'anything happen to her. No matter what your situation, you need. a financial plan of your own. If you know nothing about finances, do a survey of your re- sources then look for competent 'advice from a professional money manager. ,Ilere are some tips from. the ex- perts: 1. Always have some money in the bank for an emergency. 2. If you think you can't afford sufficient life insurance, look for a form of "insurance . only" coverage such as term insurance to bring your coverage up to a realistic level. It's economical and it will fill the bill: 3. Choose some form of invest- ment for your savings -retirement program. Best bets are real es- tate and good stocks and bonds, be ause they tend to keep pace with inflation. If you don't know enough about the stock market to carry out your own investment program, look into profession- ally -managed mutual funds. They're designed for just this purpose. 4. Always allow for inflation. Review your program regularly and add to it when necessary. Don't make 'the mistake of think- ing that a monthly income that would be adequate today will do the trick 10, 15 or 20 years from now. 5. Investigate the substantial tax -saving possibilities of regis- tered retirement savings pro- grams. These are just some of the ways to make sure your financial inde- pendenee is secure at all titres. You'll be happier' for it and will find that fulfilment as a woman conies much easier if you don't have to do it, on a shoestring.

Food prices have increased ra- pidly in Canada recently, but they still seem to be reasonable compared to West Germany. During the recent ANUGA food show in Cologne,. Ontario Food Council representatives observed the following prices: bananas 26 cents pound; milk 47 cents quart; chicken breasts $1.48 pound; tur- keys $1.38 pound; grade A large eggs $L48 dozen; tomato ketchup (20 ounces) $1.18; corn niblets (12 ounces) 54 cents; Corn flakes (12 ounces) 94 cents. Eating at restaurants is ex- pensive because a 171,2 per cent service charge is added and 11 per cent Value Added Tax (VAT) is computed on the cost of the meal plus service charge. Before the service charge and VAT, the basic cost of the . meal exceeds most in Ontario. Another study conducted by a Canadian bank in Frankfurt dur- ing July showed non-food costs also to be relatively high. For ex- ample: car licenses $119.26; gasoline $1,60 per gallon; bath- room tissue per roll 63 cents; paper towels (2 roll pack) $1.13; men's haircut $6.54; German beer (case 24) $9,94; dentist, one tooth filling $34.87. Seeing Europe on $5 a day seems a Iittle outdated. Canada uses 162 million acres for agiyieulture. } yeah iaundr ►nnat and Wash Agitator Lsuaily an extra -cost iter;it's free during this sale only.
