How can I clear the tube so I can spray the scent? -- Margie, California Dear Margie: Cologne and perfume are by nature somewhat sticky. If a bottle sits unused, the tiny opening in the sprayer can clog. Try this: Remove the sprayer pump from the top of the cologne bottle. Run the spray pump under hot water. Place it back on the bot- tle, and test to see if it is unclogged. Another option is to force a nee- dle into the hole of the spray to break through the sticky residue that is clogging it. If these methods don't work, remove the top alto- gether, and transfer the balance of the cologne to a new spray bottle. Dear Mary: I'm recently retired and wonder where I should invest my retirement fund. The banks are not paying much interest, and the stock market can be such a roller coaster. We need something more stable, but with some growth. -- Sharon, email savings interest rates nearly 0 per- cent and the stock market, at best, rocky. Add to this, I am not qualified as an invest- ment professional to advise you. But I can recommend what I think is a terrific resource. First, a little back- ground. Everything I know about investing I've learned from the book "Sound Mind Investing," by Austin Pryor. Recently, he wrote "The Prudent Investor's Guide to Owning Gold." This small book is an easy read and not at all whacky. I highly recom- mend that you read it. This eBook, priced at just $2.99, is offered as a Kindle book at Ama- zon.com. Dear Shellee: I believe that gratitude is the cornerstone of a well-lived, abundant life. Giving away part of what we have is a tangible way to express our grati- tude. Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate Dear Sharon: If I had an answer for where your investments could be stable while experiencing steady growth, I'd be a very rich woman. We are living in very difficult times -- with the U.S. dollar teetering, Dear Mary: We are a retired two- person household. Our only income is my husband's Social Security check, which you and I both know has to stretch a long way. We have no debt and own our own home. Up until now, we have always tithed 10 percent faithfully. Should we con- tinue to tithe, now on our Social Security income? What would you do? -- Shellee, email blessed. Do you have a question for My suggestion is that you not get hung up on per- centages, but instead give to others as you've been blessed. My experience is that it is impossible to "out- give." The more you give, the more you will be It sounds to me as though you and your fami- ly have been greatly blessed given that you have no debt, you own your own home and you have steady income. In that giving has been part of your lives up to now, I cannot imagine why you would even think of changing that. Mary? Email her at mary@everydaycheapskate.com, or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O.
