March 10: Bath City Roller Girl’s Fundraiser for St. Baldrick’s

Our very own Aurora Zinck, aka “Assazzin”, who recently sold her 1,000th insurance policy, is a superhero not only for her clients but also for kids fighting cancer. The amateur roller derby league she skates with, Bath City Roller Girls in Macomb County, Michigan, will gladly shave your head for a $25 donation. They’ll also accept $25 to let you keep your hair intact.

Jason Rudd shares a classic parable of thwarted potential. At some point in our lives, we’ve all been told we “can’t” do something. But as long as we’re still breathing, we’ve still got a chance to try. And we just might end up soaring.

There is no such thing as “one size fits all” life insurance pricing. The price you pay for your policy is based on your individual risk rating, which is primarily based on your build (height and weight), smoking status, and health history (past and ongoing medical conditions and medications). Everyone’s risk rating is different, and the higher the risk you represent to the insurance company, the higher the price they are going to charge to cover you.

Many agents tell their clients (or should we say “sell” their clients) low rates and take them through the entire application process only to discover later that they were not approved for the quoted price.

On a trip through northern Italy, I had a chance to taste one of the world’s finest balsamic vinegars, produced for the Lucini Italia company. The operation in the province of Modena is unique in that the grapes are harvested, crushed, reduced, cask-aged and bottled on the same estate. The tour was fascinating; the flavor, incomparable.

Balsamic vinegar is made from a reduction of syrup from sweet wine grapes. The syrup is stored under controlled atmospheric conditions as it slowly turns into vinegar. The Gran Reserva Lucini balsamic is aged here for 10 years.
