Grand Rapids, United States - February 27, 2020 /PressCable/ —

On a recent Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio Program, Host Dennis Tubbergen interviews best-selling author John Del Vecchio about his newly released book, “Unbounded Wealth”. Dennis’ conversation with John is inspiring and offers practical financial advice that will benefit those aspiring to a secure retirement or those who are already retired and looking to manage their nest egg in the best manner possible. John reveals the common obstacles to a successful retirement and sound money management and brings to light the one thing that is most important when planning your financial future.

In the interview, Del Vecchio said, “…the biggest obstacle is a fictional family in the book called the Jones’s. You’ve heard of “don’t keep up with the Jones’s”, or, “keeping up with the Jones’s”. Problem with keeping up with the Jones’s is the Jones’s are broke. They have this facade. They live in a McMansion. They have two gas-guzzling cars, special golf clubs that correct their slice, all the good stuff, the gadgets in life. They only have about $60,000 socked away, so if Mr. Jones loses his job or becomes ill, they can’t support that lifestyle.”

On the Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio Show, host Dennis Tubbergen covers the more critical aspects of an authors work as well, for example, it’s often been said, “the majority is always wrong”. In his book, John Del Vecchio presents the George Costanza method of successful investing using the backdrop of the Seinfeld episode where Jerry tells George that everything he’s done has turned bad, therefore he should just do the opposite. On this, Del Vecchio said, “That’s kind of how you get way ahead in the stock market as well is you really got to go against the grain, against the tide.”

Retirement Lifestyle Advocates got its start in 2001, founded by Dennis Tubbergen, Fredrick Gearhart and Mark Klipsch. The idea for the company came about when, after twenty plus years in financial services, the three partners recognized that today’s retiree’s were healthier, wealthier, and had ambitions and dreams yet to achieve. Today’s retiree needs far more than a financial help, they want sound guidance on a variety of issues to help them make the most of their retirement years.

Ever since, Retirement Lifestyle Advocates has made a point to provide the most value and best information to retirees looking for help to achieve their dreams of travel, health, legacy, or even buying or starting a small business as a 2nd career. The Retirement Lifestyle Advocates web page encompasses about over 100 resources including the audio and transcribed interviews with financial experts, plus their own books, and newsletters.

One-stop shop for PH products gets designer-led update

One-stop shop for PH products gets designer-led update

Filipino craftsmanship and creativity was on full display at the launch on Thursday of Kultura Atelier at SM Makati. The one-stop shop of the country’s largest department store chain is known for its wide range of Philippine-made products ranging from comestibles to clothes.  It is also a favorite shopping destination of returning Filipinos who want to take a piece of home back to their country of work. Many tourists also make a beeline to Kultura for souvenirs of their time in the tropics.  With the opening of Kultura Atelier, shoppers now have more options when an event calls for elevated Filipiniana. At the mini fashion show to mark the launch last week, the designers who were tapped to join Kultura’s roster presented pieces from their collection now available in store.  Daryl Maat showed updates to his playful redesign of the short-sleeved barong. Instead of traditional scrollwork or geometric designs, Maat’s features kid-style line drawings stitched in colored embroidery thread. Former professional model Alvin Degamo of Wear Your Culture was wearing one of his own pieces that afternoon, a denim jacket with fabric insets featuring embroidery inspired by the Manobos of Mindanao. He said his pieces are limited because it takes time for the weavers to finish a panel and send it to him.  Degamo then sends the panel to Lumban, Laguna to be embroidered by sewers he has long worked with. “I want to give the pieces from Wear Your Culture something more. Rather than use a woven panel as is, I have it embroidered or hand painted so the finished product stands out from others like it,” Degamo said.  Veteran Cebu-based designer Phillip Rodriguez has also thrown his hat into the retail shopping ring with Isla by Filippo. His elegant pieces shown that afternoon included a red terno ensemble with fabric that featured a solihya-like pattern.  Rodriguez also presented two black barong Tagalog that looked sleek and had a slimming effect.  Other brands and designers that are now part of Kultura Atelier include Fam Ph, Goodluck Humans, Harold and Harry, Jo-Rel Espina, Ken Samudio, Martin Uy, Rodolfo by Puey Quinones, Sari Lazaro, Tim Tam Ong and Zarah Juan. The festivities that afternoon extended beyond the runway with a perfume bar by Tadhana Fragrance, and jewelry customization by Nazrea Pearls. Kultura Atelier and Kultura at SM Makati still share the same space but the former  consists mainly of designer apparel and fashion accessories while the latter carries home decor and food items. In praise of the coconut There are dozens of food and decorative items for sale this weekend at the Department of Trade and Industry’s (DTI) National Trade Fair. This time the coconut is in the spotlight with a wide range of food items ranging from coconut leaf-wrapped suman and extra virgin coconut oil to beaded hanging lamps and Christmas decor made of the tree’s different elements.  As the second coconut-focused trade fair this year, the initiative highlights the versatility of the Philippine coconut industry through innovative products in food, wellness, beauty, textiles, home essentials and handicrafts. The fair is open free to the public until Sunday and is a good place to jumpstart Christmas shopping.  Beyond showcasing local ingenuity, however, the fair opens doors for MSMEs and coconut farmer-beneficiaries to connect with institutional buyers, retailers and consumers, expanding their market reach and business opportunities.
