Retirement must seem like a long way off — yet, it's never too soon to start planning for it. At the same time, though, you may also have shorter-term goals. Can you make progress to - ward your near-term and long-term objectives at the same time? Yes, you can — but you'll need to match your short- and long-term goals with the appropriate savings an d i nve stm en t v eh ic le s. For example, one of your most important short-term goals may be purchasing a house, so you'll need to ac - cumulate a certain amount of money by a certain time — perhaps in three to five years. Therefore, you won't want to risk your down payment on an investment whose price will fluctuate — and whose value may be down just when you need the money. Consequently, you may want to look for a shorter-term investment whose objective is preser - vation of principal. Typi- cally, with these types of vehicles, the shorter the term, the lower the inter- est rate — but since your goal is basically to have a certain amount of money available at a certain time, you might be less inter - ested in what return you'll get on this particular in- vestment, as opposed to the return you might hope for from other, longer-term vehicles. In fact, while you are saving for your down pay - ment on your home, or for other short-term goals, you also need to be think- ing long term — that is, you need to save as much as you can for your eventual re- tirement. Since you are still in the early stages of your work- ing life, you have an enor- mous asset going for you: time. By starting to save for retirement now, you have more time to save than you would if you waited another decade or so. Plus, since you have so many years to go until you retire, you can afford to put a reasonable percentage of your invest - ment dollars into growth- oriented instruments, such as stocks or stock-based in- vestments. They may carry more risk, including the risk of losing principal, but they also offer greater reward potential than, say, fixed- income vehicles such as bonds. And holding growth investments for the long term can help you look be - yond short-term volatility. You can start a long- term investment program by investing in your 401(k) or other retirement plan of - fered by your employer. These plans usually of- fer a variety of investment options, including several growth-oriented accounts. Plus, any earnings are typ - ically tax-deferred, which means your money could grow faster than if it were placed in an investment on which you paid taxes ev - ery year. So try to take full ad- vantage of your employ- er's plan — at a minimum, contribute enough to earn a match, if one is offered. Then, every time your sal - ary goes up, boost your contributions. With discipline and per- severance, you can move toward both your distant and imminent goals. And that's the long and the short of it.

This event will be held in the banquet room of the Veterans Memorial Hall at 1620 Solano St. Food will be provided by Post 4218 Ladies' Auxiliary. Come to this event to learn more about how the VFW serves our community. The dedicated men and women of this post have honorably ser ved their country in every conflict since, and including World War II. But when their enlist - ments ended their service to their country, commu- nity, and fellow servicemen did not end. They continue to actively participate in and support community events and ac - tivities. They donate thou- sands of dollars a year for local scholarships, sports programs, and community events. They travel from Igo to Elk Creek to per - form military honors at the funerals of America's ser- vicemen and women re- gardless of their affiliation with the post or the VFW. They pay homage to these brave men a nd women who answered when their nation called them to service.
