Just a couple phone calls canleave Sycamore Township FireChief Rob Penny scrambling.

It happened on a recent Junemorning – two people called offwork, leaving him struggling tofind replacements – and it’s be-coming more common.

“In the last six months wehad 13 part-timers leave, and inthe last yearwe’ve lost 21,” Pen-ny said during a township staffmeeting. “We’re really runninginto difficulty replacing them.All these part-timers have tak-en off for full-time jobs.”

Sycamore Township has 21full-time firefighters/paramed-ics and 55 who work part-time.It may seem like enough, butwith firefighters working 24-hour shifts and many havingfull-timejobswithotherdepart-ments, Penny said it can betough to maintain 12 people at

the township’s two stations,which handle about a dozencalls a day.

He’s placed job advertise-ments in surrounding counties,at local hospitals and at trainingschools seekingmore part-timefirefighters and paramedics,but it hasn’t helped. SycamoreTownship needs at least ninepeople each day to staff the twofire stations.

“We do need to look at some-thing because it’s a schedule is-sue, really,” he said. “We’re try-ing to maintain at least mini-mum staffing until we get peo-ple in. Iwould like to say thepayrate going up would help, butother (area departments) arenot getting applications either.”

A part-time firefighter ormedicmakes$13anhour inSyc-amore Township, and Pennysaid the average in the area isabout $15 or $16 per hour.

Trustee Cliff Bishop isn’tsure that would help recruit

more people to the township.“The biggest problem is a

place like the city of Cincinnati,which takes 50 people out of themix at one time, and we mighthave to wait for the next batch(of graduates) to come out,” hesaid. “The solution is not alwaysto throw more money out therebecause as we’ve seen in thepast, townships and municipal-ities are kind of unique.”

Because there is suchasmallpool of communities in the area,Bishop said he didn’t want to“get into a bidding war” withothers who are also trying torecruit new staff.

Penny said about 85 percentof thepart-timeparamedicsandfirefighters in Sycamore Town-ship also have full-time jobswith other departments. “It’snot just our department, thewhole county is hurting forpart-timers,” he said.

time we have, we needpart-time,” Trustee Den-ny Connor said. “Wheredo we go next?”

Two years ago, town-ship trustees signed anagreement with the fireunion that included paycuts, demotions and re-structuring of the firedepartment, with aheavier reliance on part-

time personnel.That agreement came

on the heels of an earlierproposal to potentiallyoutsource SycamoreTownship’s fire and EMSservices, an option laterrejected by trustees.

The agreement withthe fire union is set to ex-pire at the end of thisyear.

MADISONVILLE — Sev-eral business ownersdon’t see why the city isconsidering a change atthe Madison and Ken-wood road intersection.

The Cincinnati Depart-ment of Transportationand Engineering hosted ameetingMay28 todiscussimprovements at that lo-cation.

Among the proposedchanges are finding alter-natives to a clearance is-sue involving the bridge.“It’s a safety issue,” saidAndreaHenderson, a pro-ject manager for the De-partment of Transporta-tion.

A number of truckshave crashed into thebridge because of insuffi-cient clearance, she said.

From the roadway to

the bottom of the bridge,there is about 12 feet ofclearance, she said. Ideal-ly, this clearance shouldbe more than 14 feet, ac-cording to Henderson.

A few options underconsideration are lower-ing theroad, replacing thebridge or raising thestructure.

Additionally, the meet-ingwill focus on safety is-sues at the intersection ofStafford Street and Madi-son Road.

Expansion of the side-walks at that location isalso under consideration.Henderson said peoplewithstrollersaswellas in-dividuals in wheelchairshavehaddifficultiesnavi-gating the sidewalks, es-pecially with poles,benches and trash recep-tacles obstructing what isalready a somewhat nar-row path.

“The whole point (ofthe meeting) is to getfeedback and share infor-mation,” Herndersonsaid. “People can makesuggestions on how theywould like to see (this) im-plemented.”

For some, though, notdoing anything with thebridge is a preferred op-tion.

Visitors to theBoosterPavilion at Indian HillHigh School will see anew addition.

A rain barrel to collectwater runoff has beenadded by students in thewatershed studies class.

“It seemed like some-thing no one else haddone,” said Callum Wa-terhouse who installedthe rain barrel as part ofhis senior project.

Chemistry and water-shed studies teacher Su-san Savage said the goalof the rain barrel is togather water water run-off, which will then beused to water a rain gar-den set up by the water-shed studies class sever-al years ago.

Water collecting onthe pavilion roof will runfrom a downspout con-nected to the rain barrel.The barrel will holdabout 80 gallons ofwater.

Funding for the pro-ject was provided by theVillage of IndianHill andthe Greenacres Founda-tion.

The watershed stud-

iesclassconductsmonth-ly chemical tests ofcreeks connected to theLittle Miami River andprovides regular updatesto the village.

Once Waterhouse’sidea for the rain barrelwas approved as his sen-ior project, watershedstudies classmates JoeyCampbell, Amar Hilaland Weston Foellgerhelped him sand andpaint the rain barrel. Allthree are seniors and res-idents of Kenwood.

They spent two weeksduring class getting thebarrel ready. It was in-stalled May 30.

“I hope it gets peopleto start thinking aboutthe environment more,”saidWaterhouse,who is aresident of Indian Hill.

Campbell agreed.“Ifmore of these (bar-

rels)aremade,wecanac-tually make a changewith runoff,” he said.

Foellger, who like theothers is graduating thisschoolyear, saidhe’sgladthe rain barrel will re-main a fixture at the pa-vilion.

“It’s leaving some-thing behind,” he said.

The other stu-dents in the top 10 were: JillO’Bryan (Mason), Erica How(Loveland), Olivia Wilmink(Norwood), Amanda Burke(Colerain Township) and SarahTytus (Madeira). Sponsored bytheHamilton County Soil &Wa-ter Conservation District, theEnvironmental EducationCouncil ofOhio andAgrium, thecompetition featured the teamspresenting their project ideasfor improving the local water-shed.More than 75 entrieswerereceived.

The teamswereevaluatedonthe basis of a written report aswell as the presentations at theevent. The MND topics andteams were:

“I am always impressed bythe innovative ideas our stu-dents come up with to solve aproblem, Schafer said.

“They approach a problemwith enthusiasm, intelligence,and creativity that shows intheir solutions. Half of this pro-ject is the ideaandtheotherhalfis being able to communicatethe idea. Throughout the curri-culum at Mount Notre Dame,our faculty is preparing them tobe able to communicate theirideas through writing. I knowthat many of the teams weresuccessful not only because oftheir great idea but also be-cause of their writing abilities.It is a true testament to all de-partments at Mount NotreDame that we have four teamsin the finals.”

COLUMBUS — If it’s June, itmust be Huntington Park fortheMoeller High School base-ball team.

Seeking a third-straight Di-vision I championship, coachTim Held’s Crusaders madethe familiar trek to downtownColumbus for the weekend ofJune 6-7.

They faced a team fromMassillon Jackson that hadn’tbeen to the state semifinals in67 years.

The Polar Bears came intothegamewitha similar recordat24-5andbegantoconjureupmemories of 1947 by scoringright away off of Moeller aceZach Logue. Senior Kyle Mot-tice reached base and wasdriven inbyseniorJakeMillerto give Jackson the early 1-0lead.

From there, Jackson sopho-more SamMiller kept theCru-saders off the plate despite al-lowing baserunners in thefirst three innings.

In the fourth,Moeller soph-omore Kyle Butz singled andstole second and came in on anerror by Jackson’s shortstopto knot the game at 1.

The Crusaders remainlocked on one run as SamMil-ler, followed by senior TimTurner, a couple of 5-foot-9 Po-lar Bear hurlers, put Moellerin a deep freeze in terms ofruns.

A sacrifice fly by Turnerand run-scoring single fromsenior designated hitter SethVellucci put Jackson up 3-1 inthe fifth inning. In the sixth,nine-hole hitter sophomoreJakePollattasingles tomake it4-1.

In the final inning, seniorRileyMahan led off with a tri-

ple for Moeller and wasknocked in by future Ken-tucky Wildcat teammateLogue on a groundout,makingit 4-2. Jackson held from thereas senior Mike McCanncaught the final fly to right toendMoeller’s state title streakat two.

“It felt like we had guysstanding on second and thirdall game long,” Held said. “Atip of the cap to them. Theirpitchers made big pitches andtheir defense made big playswhen they needed to.”

Logue gave up seven hitsand struck out six in his finalfive frames of high schoolpitching.Mahanhadtwoof theCrusaders’ six hits.

“These guys had a fantasticseason to go 24-5,” Held said.“Riley (Mahan)washere threeyears in a row and the rest ofthe seniors two years in a row.To get back up here and the

pressure that’s been on themall year, the expectations.(They’re a) great, great teamand anytime you get to the fi-nal four it’s a fantastic sea-son.”

Because of their depth,Moeller stands a good chanceat returning to Columbus nextyear. Starters Josh Hollander,Bryan Soth, Joe Vranesic,Kyle Dockus and Bailey Mon-toya are juniors as is defen-sive replacement/speedsterJordan Ramey. Starting cen-ter fielder Kyle Butz is only asophomore.

“We return a pretty healthycore,”Held said. “They’ll headon to summer ball and startworking on their game. We’llget them next November andget them ready for 2015.”

The game marked Moell-er’s 11th trip to the state semi-finals.

After state loss, Moeller baseballreturns ‘healthy core’ in 2015By Scott [email protected]

INDIAN HILL — After start-ingtheseason1-2 itmighthavebeen a bit presumptuous forany fan of Indian Hill HighSchool’s girls lacrosse team topredict a run to the state fi-nals.

Despite the odds, the LadyBraves did just that.

They reeled off five-straight wins before falling toUrsuline Academy April 24,which put them at 6-3. Fromthere, coach Katie Post’s crewwon 11 straight, including the17-15 Division II semifinalover Chagrin Falls May 30.

The victory marked IndianHill’s first-ever trip to thechampionship game; a 12:30p.m. start the next day againstthird-rankedWorthington Kil-bourne.

The Lady Braves got out toslow start, but then rattled offfour straight goals midwaythrough the first half in the ti-tle game at New Albany.

“We had the lead at onepoint in the first half, but Kil-bourne took it away,” Postsaid.

A 4-3 lead became 7-4 Kil-bourne with four-straightscores and it eventually was8-5 at the break. In the secondhalf, Indian Hill pulled within

threeat10-7, beforeKilbournefound the net seven straighttimes for the 17-7 final.

SeniorElenaHortonand ju-nior Gabi Gibson had threegoals each in the defeat. Itwasthe final prep contest for sen-iors Horton, Emma Acker-mann, Maddi Bennett, AbbeyFroehlich and KatherineMur-phy.

The rest can chalk it up to alearning experience, accord-ing to their coach.

“We definitely have plansto make it back next year,”Post said. “You kind of don’tknow what to expect untilyou’ve been there already. Ithink this is a good experience

so they can be prepared nextyear.”

Among those returningnext spring will be first teamAll-State attack Gabi Gibsonand Elena Horton’s youngersister, Rhian, who will be a ju-nior.

“We’re returning a lot ofstarters andwe have some im-pressive freshmen coming uptoo,” Post said.

The former Sycamore as-sistant had a stellar season inher first assignment as a headcoach. She also knows the insand outs of the state tourna-ment, having played on Syca-more’s 2007 and 2009 state ti-tle teams.

“The girls did a wonderfuljob,” Post said. “I have to givethem all the credit becausethey did all the work on thefield.”

Post was unable to stay inNew Albany and cheer her al-mamater in theDivision I titlegame. Her older sister, Mer-edith, is an assistant with theLady Aves making it a busyday with mixed emotions forthe Post family.

“I actually couldn’t (stay)because I had to ride the busback,” Post said. “Both of myparents were texting me up-dates.”

HILLIARD, Ohio — InsearchofitsfirstDivisionIstate title in school history,St.XavierlosttoDublinJe-rome 3-2 in the Ohio HighSchool Lacrosse Associa-tionDivisionIstatesemifi-nals atHilliardBradley.

Jerome senior ShawnEwert scored the eventualgame-winner with 3:47 re-maining in the third quar-ter.

The Bombers (16-7) hitthe post five times, onecoming in the final minuteof the game, and couldn’tget around the spectacularplay of Celtics goalkeeperChase Rose, who unoffi-cially recorded10 saves.

After hitting the postwith 45 seconds left in thegame, the Bombers re-gained possession with32.1 to play after a Celticturnover. St. X rushed onelast flurry of offense onRose, who made the finalsaveofthecontestwithun-der 10 seconds to play be-fore hurling the ball out ofthe St. X’s offensive zoneand watching the clock hitzero.

“The guys played theirhearts out,” St. XaviercoachNate Sprong said af-

ter the game. “It’s a toughway to go down, but wewent down fighting. Icouldn’t be more proud ofthe guys. St. Xavier la-crosse is a class act. Some-times it doesn’t go yourway.”

St. Xavier’s last la-crosse state title came in2000 as a member of Divi-sion II and coached byMarkHowe.

The Celtics opened thescoring just 1:52 into thefirst quarter on a SkylerBlake goal. Jack Caudill ofHyde Park had the answerfor the Bombers less thantwominuteslater,tyingthescore at one with 8:32 leftin the opening quarter.

Jerome took a 2-1 leadinto the half on a secondquarter goal by junior JebComfort, before WilliamHolcomb of Terrace Parkscored for the Bombers atthe 5:52 mark of the thirdquarter.

The three goals equal aseason-low for the Celtics,which is how Sprong drewthings up.

“We came out in a zonedefense to slowdown theiroffense,” the coach said.“Our goalie (T.J. Schwie-tertofMason),wehadcon-fidence in him and wepacked the zone in and he

came up huge with somebig saves. Everything hap-pened the way we wantedexcept the shots didn’tfall.”

The loss ends St. X’sseasonat16-7andbrings toan end the reign of 13 sen-iors, seven of who havebeen on varsity since theywere sophomores and con-tributed to the programreaching two regional fi-

nals, winning one regionaltitle and reaching the statetournament for the firsttime since 2009.

“I couldn’t be moreproud of St. Xavier la-crosse, especially the sen-ior class,” Sprong said.“They battled, beenthrough a lot and wouldhave likedtoplayonSatur-daybutthatdoesn’tchangeanything.”

A publication of

Four years ago, I realizedthat I was the mother of in-dependent children. I don’tknow how it happened.

One day I’m needed, thenext day, I’m not. I found my-self wondering what I woulddo with the all of my vacanthours.

Getting a job was terrifyingto me. I hadn’t worked in morethan 20 years, so my skillswere minimal at best. If I hadto create a resume, it wouldsay something like, “I love toread, write, and take care ofchildren.” Not exactly P&Gmaterial.

That’s when I decided tocombine my skills, and volun-teer as a reading tutor in theCincinnati Public Schools. Ibegan at a school in Price Hill,which was wonderful, but the

drive leftmuch to bedesired. So Iquickly madethe move to aschool muchcloser tohome. Fromthe first day Iwalkedthrough thedoors, I knew Ihad found the

place where my time wouldfind a home.

Unlike the days of volun-teering at Indian Hill primaryand elementary schools, I wasa stranger at this school, anddidn’t know if I would be ac-cepted. I shouldn’t have wor-ried – I was welcomed withopen arms.

Volunteers are treated like

dignitaries by staff as well as(most) students. Sadly, manyof the children have been dis-appointed often in their shortlives, and knowing they havesomeone special that comesjust for them on a regularbasis is incredibly meaningful.

I have had many studentsthese past four years, but myfavorite story is about a girl Iwas assigned to my first dayas a volunteer. She hated mefrom the beginning. She hadbeen neglected her entire life,and didn’t trust anyone.

I have thick skin, so likeclockwork each Monday,Wednesday and Friday at 9a.m. from September throughMay, I was there waving at herthrough the glass classroomdoor. And like clockwork, eachMonday, Wednesday and Fri-

day at 9 a.m., she’d scowl atme in return.

One day toward the end ofthe year, I could see that I waswinning her over. I showed upat the glass door. When shesaw me, instead of a scowl, Icould see a smile on her face.It was fleeting and very faint,almost Mona Lisa-ish, but itwas definitely a smile.

The big prize came a coupleweeks later. She asked me towatch her play in her upcom-ing end-of-the-year basketballgame. Victory. For me, and forher.

Sometimes when I walk thehallways, I feel like the PiedPiper. Children I don’t evenknow ask if I can be their tu-tor. This isn’t because of who Iam, but rather what I and allother volunteers represent – a

constant person in their life,someone who will be there forthem. I want to say yes to allthe children, but sadly, that’snot possible.

An hour a week seems likenothing to so many of us, butto these children, that hourrepresents so much more thantime. I realize tutoring chil-dren isn’t a passion for every-one, but if you find yourselflooking for something to dowith that extra hour or so oftime each week, the CincinnatiPublic Schools would be happyto fill it.

It feels really good to lay inbed at night knowing youmade a difference in a child’slife.

June 5 questionWhat do you think about the

push for a federal minimumwage increase to $10.10 from$7.25 an hour?

“Seattle recently made na-tional headlines by raisingtheir minimum wage to $15per hour. $7.25 per hour hasbeen around awhile and asteady annual climb to $10 ormore seems fair.

This should have been tak-ing place gradually all along.The highest point for purchas-ing power for the US mini-mum wage was in 1969, whenthe $1.60 an hour minimumwage bought $10.10 in today’sdollars.

Had they tied theminimumwage to inflation the figurewould be at $10 or more bynow. In 1969 US Congressmenmade $42,000; they now make$174,000peryearplus lifetimebenefits, lobbyist perks andPACmonies. Go Figure!”

“Minimum wage only af-fects those with a job – unem-ployment will increase ascompanies cut back with in-creased minimum wage man-dates.”

“Too bad I’m not workingnow.”

Mary Ann Maloney

“If you want to spend $10for aBigMac, fine. It’s an arti-ficial increase. Real increasescome when hard work is rec-ognized and rewarded. Creamalways rises to the top. Yet an-other example of our ‘some-thing for nothing’ attitude inthis country.”

LETTERS TO THE EFITOR

“Bring Back Our Girls.”This phrase is echoing

around the world as we learnmore about the horror in Ni-geria, where hundreds ofschool girls were kidnapped.Boko Haram, an Al Qaeda-linked terror group, hasclaimed responsibility and nowpromises to sell them into slav-ery. It’s sickening. It is vile. Itis disgusting.

These girls were kidnappedfrom a boarding school, study-ing to better their futurethrough the promise of educa-tion. Hideously, Boko Haramclaims to be waging a waragainst this very concept: girlsand women working to im-prove their position in life.

However, we know thatwhen women are empoweredand succeed, entire countriesprosper.

These terrorists would rath-er subject half the human pop-ulation to servitude than seewomen succeed.

While this tragic attack hasbrought African terror groupsto the forefront of our atten-tion, this is not a new battle.

As a member of the HouseArmed Services Committee, Itraveled in Africa in March toobserve and evaluate the effec-tiveness of America’s counterterrorism collaboration withnations on the continent.

While I did not stop in Ni-

geria specifi-cally, the workour advisorsare doingthere is simi-lar.

AmericanSpecial Forcesare workingclosely withAfrican na-tions on anti-terror assign-ments, part-

nering with governments tocombat a growing terroristpresence in the continent tofight back against warlordsand terrorist networks thatkeep millions living in fear.

Empowering local forces totake ownership of their coun-try's security will help combatthose who seek to terrorizetowns and populations.

I am glad that our nation hascommitted resources to helpfind these girls.

It’s an unfortunate fact thathuman trafficking is still areality in Africa and across theglobe.

Even in our own country,and our own state, it still hap-pens. Last December, I touredthe FreedomHall RecoveryCenter in Pike County. Whilethere, I spoke with one of theresidents in particular.

Her story was stunning.Originally from Eastern

Europe, her freedomwas sto-len from her at an early ageand she was subjected to theworst kinds of abuse for years.

Eventually, through thepower of community that shefound at FreedomHall, she isfinding a new life.

The House of Representa-tives took action to fight backagainst the scourge that ishuman trafficking.

A package of about half adozen bills passed the Housethat take aim at the moderntrafficking networks and theindividuals who seek to exploitand abuse women and chil-dren.

We will help victims reclaimtheir lives as well.

We can help victims byproviding increased access toprotective services throughsafe harbor laws and furtherprotecting children in ournation’s foster systems.

We will continue to dis-assemble the black market bytargeting those exploiting ourvisa system, shutting downinternet advertisements forhumans trapped in servitude,and expanding internationalcooperation in breaking upglobal trafficking rings.

U.S. Rep. Brad Wenstrup representsOhio’s 2nd District in the U.S. Houseof Representatives.

A GLOBAL FIGHTAGAINST HUMAN

TRAFFICKING

BradWenstrupCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Helping the environmentdoesn’t have to be expensive ordifficult. One of the easiestways to help improve our airquality is to avoid idling yourvehicle when parked or not inuse.

Idlingwastesmoneyandnat-ural resources, affects the envi-ronment and harms our health.

Thirty seconds of idling canuse more fuel than turning offthe engine and restarting it. Notidling a vehicle is a quick andeasy way to save money.

Vehicleexhaustcontainscar-

bon monoxide,nitrogen diox-ide, particulatematter and vol-atile organiccompounds, allofwhich at cer-tain levels canharm the envi-ronment andour health.

Rememberto turn your en-

gine off at the ATM, active rail-road crossings and while wait-ing to pick-up friends and fam-

ily. Children are particularlysusceptible to emissions fromidling vehicles because theirrespiratory systemsare still de-veloping and they breathe at afaster rate than adults.

We can all help to improvethe environment, save a littlemoney, and breathe easier byturning off our engines whilewe wait.

I’vetoldyoubeforethatit doesn’t take much topleaseme.And today, I amvery, verypleased.Ecstat-ic, in fact. Tony Poe, ourcounty beekeeper, cameout and placed five bee-hives along the perimeterof the tree line acrossfrom the field. So that ournew residents could even-tually have a bountifulfeastofhoneyfromclover,I told my husband, Frank,not tomowthebackwherethe clover grew until the

bees set-tled in withfull tum-mies.

Talkingabout hon-ey remindsme that Ineed to tellyou the rec-ipe for myhoneyciderallergy

drink should bemadewithorganic cider vinegar, notjust organic cider, as indi-cated in the intro to therecipe.

Roasted radishesand carrots withthyme

I have been wanting totest this recipe but had towait until we could har-vest our radishes. Roastedradishes are apopularme-nu item in trendy restau-rants, and the carrots adda bit of sweetness. Theroasting tames the radish-es bite. We grow severalkinds. I used the classicround radishes for thisdish.

1bunchsmall tomedi-um radishes

6 regular carrots, cutinto1/2-inch slices

Olive oilPalmful fresh thyme,

chopped or 1 teaspoondried thyme

Salt and freshlyground black pepper

LemonPreheat oven to 450.

Toss radishes and carrotswith oil, thyme, salt andpepper.Roast insingle lay-er until tender, about 20minutes. Serve withsqueeze of lemon juice.

Tips from Rita’skitchen:

Radishes and theirleaves contain vitamin C,and are good for the kid-neys and liver.

Peas with prosciuttoSeasonal peas really

shine in this dish. Pro-sciutto is a ham that iscured and air dried. Thesaltiness of the prosciutto

plays off nicely with thesweetness of the peas.

I lovegoingthroughmyvintage recipes that aretreasures. Apparentlythey are to some of you,too. Roberta H., a North-ern Ky. reader, remem-bered this recipe fromhermother. “She served thiscake when she had bridgeclubwhenIwasyoungandit had a graham crackercrust,” Roberta said. Let’shope this one is what Ro-berta remembers. I canjust see this cakebeingen-joyed by the bridge clubladies!

Thanks, EscoffierSociety!

Wow, was I surprisedwhen Chef John Kinsella,Director Les DisciplesD’Auguste Escoffier,shared with me that I wasgoing to be inducted intothe Escoffier 2014 Hall ofFame. John let me knowthis after we finished tap-ing “Love starts in thekitchen,” my Union Town-ship cable TV show. TheDisciple Escoffier Societyis the premier gastronom-ic society established inFrance.

JUNE 11, 2014 • SUBURBAN LIFE • B5LIFE

Ever come across asure-fire investment thatguarantees great returnson your money? It’s asales pitch that’s beenused many times and, un-fortunately, many people

have fallenfor it.Many ofthese get-rich-quickinvest-ments turnout to benothingmore thanPonzischemes inwhich old

investors are paid withmoney from new inves-tors.

In the Cincinnati areawe’ve seen such schemesover the years from a so-called ticket broker to aman who guaranteed a 10percentreturnonpeople’smoney. Both men eventu-ally ended up in prison,just like Bernie Madoff,but not before a lot of peo-pleendedup losing tensofthousands of dollars.

There are ways to spotsuch Ponzi schemes andRob Siegmann, of the Fi-nancial ManagementGroup in Blue Ash, offersseven tips. First, he says,“Make sure you under-stand the investmentstrategy and how it work-s…If you don’t under-standthe investment, lookfor a different financialstrategy.”

Second, check your ad-visor’s credentials to seeif they’re registered withstate or federal regula-tors. Most financial advi-sors have earned the CFP,

CFA, orCPAdesignations.Siegmann says, “I wouldcall into question theknowledge of salespeoplewithout those respectedcredentials.” Check withthe U.S. Securities andExchange Commission tosee ifanycomplaintshavebeen filed against an advi-sor, rather than justchecking with an advi-sor’s happiest clients.

Beware of a hard sellbecause, Siegmann says,“A good value propositionshould sell itself. Highpressure tactics meanyour advisor is eager tomake a commissioncheck. Ultimately, a longterm relationship withyour advisor is best. Ifyou experience a hardsell, your advisormay notstay with you for a longtime.”

Never write checks toan individual or their firmunless it is a large andtrusted custodian likeCharles Schwab, Van-guard or Fidelity. Sieg-mann says, “Your moneyshould be held in yourname. Also, there are nobenefits worth the risk ofco-mingling your moneywithothers inan ‘omnibusaccount.’”

Next, Siegmann says,“You want your money inan independent account,not in your advisor’s ac-count or with his or herfirm.” You should receiveregular statements froma qualified, trusted, inde-pendent custodian.

Ask how the advisor isgetting paid. Some workfor a set feeorpercentagewhile others get commis-sions based on the invest-

ment products they sellsuch as life insurance orannuities. Commission-based advisors can have aplace but you have to becareful clients don’t getloaded up with expensiveproducts.

So now, as many beginto invest again, you needto carefully pick a finan-cial advisor.
