At what age do you want to retire?

“Thank God it’s Friday!” “Oh, God it’s Monday!” These are expressions I hear quite often from working people. We all dream of the glorious day when we’ll clock out for the very last time. Imagine waking up when you’re good and ready. Imagine, vacationing when you’re good and ready. Imagine staying up to the crack of dawn just because you wanted to watch the sun rise. Imagine spending quality time with your loved ones and not being distracted by work-related proposals, deadlines, quotas, customer complaints and office politics. Have you dreamed of the life of leisure during your retirement days? At what age have you determined that you’ll hang up your working shoes?

Beware the strengths, liabilities of business structure

(NNPA)—Whether you are launching a home-based sole proprietorship, partnership or expanding a corporation—beware of your legal business ownership structure’s strengths and liabilities. The ability to rapidly make competitive market decisions and raise investment money is often directly related to the legal structure of the business.

From the start consider the primary legal business structures that work best to achieve your financial goals. Research the business characteristics, asking questions of entrepreneur mentors or attorneys, always searching for the ideal solution.

For New Pittsburgh Courier

History was made in the Pittsburgh community when Donna M. Baxter, CEO and founder of Soul Pitt Media and her team unveiled and circulated the first issue of the Soul Pitt Quarterly Magazine.

“The Soul Pitt Quarterly is the first of its kind in the community,” said Baxter. “It’s more than a magazine; it is designed to provide a colorful interactive experience for the reader.” A quarterly publication showcasing Pittsburgh’s minority arts and entertainment scene, Baxter describes the compact size publication as being designed for the reader to be able to talk, text, listen or log on to the Internet to engage. She says the vision and mission of the magazine is to focus on positive people, organizations, businesses and opportunities within the region.
