Answer: A good financial advisor can help you manage your life’s savings to make the most use of your money in retirement. Ideally, you may have begun working with a financial planner long before retiring. If not, it is never too late to start. A good advisor can help you plan investments, set budgets, and use your money wisely. To find a good financial advisor, ask your friends or colleagues for recommendations. You may ask the manager of your own bank for referrals as well. (In many cases, your local bank may offer the services you need.) Meet with prospective advisors and ask some of the following questions:  Do you specialize in retirement planning or management? How do you charge for your services? What is your investment strategy for someone in my position? How much communication can we expect with you? Either on your own or with the help of a financial planner, it is important to know your financial situation from month to month. You need to set a budget that accounts for all your monthly expenses and identifies the sources of income. You may have finished paying the mortgage, but you might still have car payments. You certainly will need to make payments for utilities, food and other ongoing costs. Be thorough and list everything. Compare your monthly expenses with whatever sources of income you can count on. Consider whether you will draw from a pension account, from savings, or from any other sources you may have available. Many people find that retirement means reduced income. In order to handle that and keep up a good credit score, you may find that you need to reduce your monthly expenses. Some of this may be easy, like cooking at home more often and reducing entertainment expenses. Some other reductions may be more challenging to accept but can have very meaningful and positive effects on your spending. For example, consider the following:  Cut back on an extra car. If you and your spouse have been using two cars, you may want to consider cutting back to one. This will reduce monthly insurance bills, gasoline costs, and excise taxes, not to mention car payments if you are still making them. Examine your insurance costs. Many retirees find that they may be carrying more insurance than they still need. For example, if your dependents are no longer relying on your income, you may be able to drop or reduce life insurance or disability insurance. You may also be able to reduce your car insurance by accepting higher deductible payments. Downsize your home. This may be an emotionally difficult decision if you have spent most of your life in one home. But if you no longer need the space because your children have grown and moved out, you can probably reduce property taxes, heating and utility costs, ongoing maintenance and care, and other expenses related to keeping up a big home. Reduce telephone costs. Many retirees find that they are keeping the telephone land line that has been in place forever, even though you may primarily be using a cell phone now. If you can drop the land line, you may save up to $50 each month in fees. If you set your monthly budget, and you find that your retirement income is insufficient to meet your monthly needs, you may want to consider taking on some part-time work. If you look around, there are many jobs that are well-suited to seniors with flexible hours and decent pay. Find something that fits your skill set. For example, AARP recommends the following as great part-time jobs for retirees:  Library assistant Bookkeeper Personal and home care aide Handyman Medical assistant


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Squat and position your arms. Keep your glove still. Keep your eyes on the ball. Relax your arm. Position your arm and mitt. Adjust quickly to a standing and throwing position. Transfer the ball from your glove to your throwing hand.

Answer: Your normal position is squatting behind home. When doing this, your left foot should be a little bit in front of your right foot (an inch or two). Your left arm (catching arm) should be bent a little at the elbow. Avoid holding your elbow on the inside of your left knee. Straddle the plate, but do not block it. You should allow an open lane to the plate. The only time you can block the plate is when you have the ball in hand. It is very important that you keep your glove as still as possible from the time the ball hits your glove until the umpire makes the call.  Moving your glove even slightly can cause a good strike to be a ball. At all times during the game, you need to keep your eyes on the ball. Without watching the ball, you won’t be able to position yourself appropriately to catch the ball. In addition, you could put yourself in danger of being struck by the ball or the bat. Before catching a ball, you need to relax your arm. If your arm isn't relaxed, the impact of the ball could hurt you. After you relax your arm, focus on where the ball is headed. Once you've identified the height at which the ball is approaching, you should position your arm appropriately and open your mitt. In addition:  If you know the pitcher is pitching high, position your arm and glove high. You’ll want to move your whole body to receive the pitch (not just your glove). This will help you better catch it. This tactic is known as swaying. Don’t move while the pitcher is throwing. You’ll distract them. If the ball is a definite strike, make sure to extend your arm and catch it with a straight elbow. To best throw out runners, you’ll need to practice quickly moving from the squatting position to your feet. Practice quickly bouncing from a squatting or kneeling position to a standing position. To do this, use your legs to spring upward. When trying to throw out a runner, make sure to use proper footwork. You should catch the ball and crow hop in place. Catching the ball and then taking a step and throwing it gives the runner an extra second. After catching a ball, you’ll have to hone your skills at transferring it to your throwing hand so you can out runners. This is because you’ll need to quickly deliver a ball you’ve caught to the first, second, or third basemen (or others). While transferring the ball from glove to throwing hand, make sure not to bring your glove all the way back to your shoulder. You should catch the ball, make a quarter turn, and take the ball out. If you bring the glove all the way back it makes the transfer a lot harder and you'll frequently have to double clutch.
