Taking responsibility for your financial future involves more than opening a savings account. Saving preserves money. While investing includes more risk, it also has the potential for higher returns. But the many investment options available can be overwhelming. Don't worry, we can help make it simple.

There are two phases of the investment process: accumulation (building your funds) and distribution (using your funds), and we can help you design an investment strategy for both.

In a few simple steps, your agent can help you:

  • Set your financial goals.
  • Understand your risk comfort zone.
  • Explore investment options like mutual funds, IRAs, retirement funding, college funding, annuities or estate preservation.

Intensify treatment for heart patients

Posted by bagathirangarao

Intensify treatment for heart patients

Mounting evidence that scores of heart patients can avoid second heart attacks or strokes with intensive treatment to reduce their risks prompted the nation's two top heart organizations on Monday to jointly issue new prevention recommendations.

The two groups call for more routine use of high-potency statins to lower bad cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein or LDL). They recommend expanding the use of other drugs that lower blood pressure and ease the heart's workload. They also, for the first time, back seasonal flu shots for all chronic heart disease patients.

"That's a really important major new recommendation," says Sidney Smith, of the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, and chairman of the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology group that issued the guidelines.

Because new studies also show that lower aspirin doses are just as effective for prevention as higher ones, the guidelines recommend dropping daily doses to between 75 milligrams a day and 162 milligrams, except in patients who have had bypass surgery. Bypass patients fare best on 100 to 300 milligrams a day for up to a year.

The so-called secondary prevention guidelines could affect as many as 26 million people in the USA who have survived heart attacks and strokes and those with chronic coronary heart disease, Smith says.

They don't address primary prevention, or what to do for people who don't yet have heart disease.

Multiple studies show that "aggressive, comprehensive risk-factor management" boosts survival, prevents second heart attacks and strokes, reduces the need for bypass surgery and balloon angioplasty and improves the quality of life for heart patients, the authors write.

"Thanks to the clinical trials, we have definitive proof on all these things, which we can't say for primary prevention," says Robert Califf, director of the Duke University Clinical Research Institute, who is not one of the authors but who is familiar with the guidelines.

Califf says primary prevention studies are far more difficult to carry out because they require tens of thousands of low-risk people and may take decades to yield clear results. For instance, he says, the Women's Health Initiative study failed to prove something that most people take for granted: that a low-fat diet helps healthy women prevent heart attacks and strokes.

"If you're 30 years old and your LDL cholesterol is a little high, common sense would tell you that it might be good to treat it (with medication), but we don't know, because the evidence isn't in," Califf says.

"If you're 70 years old, and you've got a high LDL and you've already had a heart attack, your risk of something bad happening is so high, aggressive treatment makes sense," he says. "We've got the proof."



LOWER RISK FOR A SECOND ATTACK

The American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology guidelines, endorsed by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, set targets for six key risk factors:

Eliminate cigarette smoke, including secondhand exposure.

Lower blood pressure to 140/90 in most heart patients and 130/80 in patients with diabetes or chronic kidney disease.

Lower LDL to less than 100 milligrams per deciliter of blood. The guidelines also say it's reasonable to aim lower, to 70 milligrams per deciliter.

Boost exercise levels to 30-60 minutes seven days a week, up from 30 minutes three or four days a week.

Shrink waistlines, men to less than 40 inches and women to less than 35 inches.

If you have diabetes, keep your average blood sugar level to 7% or below.

Top 10 Places to go in 2008

Top 10 Places to go in 2008




Choosing the holiday destination that’s perfect for you can be tricky, so check out Melo's selection of the Top Ten places to visit in 2008. From old favourites to up-and-coming destinations, you can find your perfect trip right here.




1. Bhutan
Cradled by the majestic Himalayas in a remote corner of Southern Asia, the “Land of the Thunder Dragon” has long held steadfast to its rich culture and Buddhist heritage. Though an isolated locale and high tourist entry tariffs (of up to $200 per person per night) keep crowds at bay, these factors have also permitted this last Shangri-La to keep its traditions intact. If the lush valleys and snowcapped mountains, ancient temples and monasteries, and expansive markets full of cheerful locals haven’t lured you to Bhutan yet, reconsider in 2008, when the 101st anniversary of the country’s monarchy will be commemorated by a yearlong celebration.

2. Greenland
Though Greenland promoters prefer to avoid using the term “catastrophe tourism” to describe its surging popularity, new weekly flights from Baltimore (late June through early August in 2008) have indeed made this Danish province the most accessible place to bear firsthand witness to the inconvenient truths of climate change. The midnight sun practically guarantees encounters with reindeer, seals, and narwhals, but it's the Arctic island's Ilulissat ice fjord, which has retreated six miles in just a few years, and Warming Island, which was thought to have been part of mainland Greenland until the connecting ice thawed, that tend to leave visitors dumbstruck.

3.
Lisbon
The cheapest capital in Western Europe (according to the 2007 Mercer Consulting survey) is worth a visit not only for its affordability–a huge plus when considering the anemic exchange rate of the U.S. dollar against the Euro these days–but for its dramatic hillside villages, fashionable cobblestone enclaves, and innovative cuisine. No longer just a stopover on the road to Porto, the capital of Portugal is fast becoming Europe’s next “it” city, which means crowds and inflated prices are bound to follow. Visit in 2008 before the buzz signals the hordes.

4.
Mozambique
Safely removed from decades of civil war, Mozambique is poised to become Africa’s next big tourist destination. The country’s recent economic success is finally permitting its natural assets–1,500 miles of unspoiled tropical shoreline, clear blue seas, and pristine reef-fringed archipelagos–to shine. Upscale, eco-friendly properties are opening along the Bazaruto and Quirimbas archipelagos, the government is restoring the million-acre Gorongosa National Park, and tour operators now run diving excursions to see sea cows, whale sharks, and staghorn coral. It’s been a long haul for this former Portuguese colony, but there’s no question that the nation is a rising star in the travel world.

5.
New Orleans
Many have already returned to New Orleans since Katrina, but recent events give every indication that 2008 is poised to be the best year the city has seen since the hurricane. Combine a rebuilding boom with powerhouse couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie moving in to the French Quarter, and a revitalized Canal Street beckoning musicians and ramblers back to its pretty riverside promenade, and you've got the makings of a fully revitalized city. Plus, with some of the nation’s most-beloved festivals getting under way in the first part of the year (Mardi Gras in February and Jazz Fest in late April and early May) it’s easy to make the Big Easy a must this year to herald the rebirth of one of the country’s most storied and fascinating cities.

6.
Okanagan Valley
Move over, Napa and Sonoma: Oenophiles looking for a taste of the next best thing are taking their palates north, to British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley. A four-hour drive northwest of Spokane, Wash., the Okanagan Valley boasts a cool and dry summer climate ideal for traditional grape harvesting, and frosty winters, which vintners use to advantage to produce Canada’s famed ice wine. With landscapes dotted with verdant fields, cascading hillsides, and ample lakes, there’s no question the area makes for a great wine-country getaway; Cedar Creek and Kettle Valley are just two of our favorite vineyards here.

7.
Quito
Long thought of as just a pit stop en route to the Galapagos, the capital of Ecuador is finally coming into its own, thanks to a burgeoning culinary and nightlife scene, new attractions ranging from botanical gardens to cultural heritage museums, and the opening of several luxury hotels. Quito’s Old Town–a UNESCO World Heritage Site that just completed a seven-year, $200 million restoration–is at the heart of the city’s regeneration. Its colonial mansions and churches now flaunt fantastic face-lifts.

8.
Slovenia
With Eastern Europe's popularity growing by leaps and bounds, Slovenia is now enjoying a newfound moment in the tourism spotlight. Slovenia is chock-full of the same kind of medieval towns and quaint villages that made the Czech Republic–namely Prague–a household name, but its charms can be enjoyed for a fraction of the price of its trail-blazing predecessor and arguably offer more value to boot. Though Slovenia was one of the first Eastern European countries to adopt the euro, the country’s hesitance to adapt to modern times has made its Venetian-era squares and tiny Alpine cities a fantastic bargain for the buck.

9.
Tobago
One of the last remaining "undiscovered" Caribbean islands, Tobago has long been overshadowed by its better-known sister island of Trinidad. A power shift may be in the making as of 2008, however, as Tobago's pink-sand beaches and serene waters became accessible for the first time by direct flights from New York and Atlanta on Delta Air Lines in December 2007. The new flights allow visitors to bypass Trinidad altogether to reach Tobago's secluded and romantic shores, where an unpretentious, slow-paced, and eco-friendly atmosphere prevails, relatively free of tourists and overdevelopment–for now.

10.
Tunisia
While 40 percent of this North African nation is swathed in arid Sahara desert, the remainder is blanketed by fertile soil and hemmed in by over 600 miles of Mediterranean coastline. No wonder it garnered a lot of (often unwanted) attention over the centuries from some of the world’s greatest civilizations. See what all the fuss was about by visiting the ruins of the ancient Phoenician city of Carthage and historic sites like the coliseum at El Jem (arguably the finest example of its kind outside of Rome). When not taking in archaeological gems, you can relax and rejuvenate at one of several beach resorts; venture through the Sahara on camelback or 4x4; or camp out in the desert in luxurious linen tents. Indeed, if there's one place on our list that packs the ultimate vacation into its borders–what with culture, beaches, adventure travel, and luxury camping–this is it.
