Hints For Homeowners3 Biggest Lighting Mistakes(NAPSI)—Homeowners don’t have to be in the dark
when it comes to avoiding common lighting mistakes. Here are several examples and tips on how to avoid them:
• Not installing landscape lighting. With the proper lighting, your home can look even more dramatic at night than during the daytime, have greater security and increase its value.
• Choosing the wrong-sized lighting fi xtures. Take the width of the room, add it to the length of the room, turn that measurement from feet to inches—that is a good approximation of how wide the � xture should be. Also, make sure the bottom of your din-ing room � xture is 30” o� the table.
• Not using a dimmer. Lighting controls have several advantages over on/off switches—starting with savings. A $20 dimmer pays for itself within the � rst year.
Videos detailing these and other common mistakes—and how to avoid them—are available on the Capitol Light-ing website at www.1800lighting.com/mistakes.
Installed and used correctly, a $20 dimmer can pay for itself within the � rst year.

Senior citizens are o� en a target of fraud. � e reasons are numerous
and I’ve written about them in the past. One common scam these days is the “Grandparent Scam.”
Typically, the grandparent receives an unsolicited phone call from someone claiming to be law enforcement, normally from Mexico or Canada.
� e caller tells the grand-parent their grandchild is being held for some sort of infraction and the child will be released simply by wiring funds. � e concerned grand-parent, wanting to help their grandchild, wires the funds to the fraudster.
� is seems like a far-fetched story, but it is impor-tant to understand that the callers are extremely good. � ey will use what infor-mation they have and ask generic questions to make it
seem like they really do have your grandchild.
For instance, they may use a general term referring to your grandchild, hoping that you will � ll in the name for them. � ey may describe the “crime” as being “not severe,”
but if you do not act now your grandchild will be held for several days with all the hardcore criminals.
Notice the red � ags in the
example above: 1) Unsolicited phone call
from law enforcement2) Foreign country3) Wire funds4) Sense of urgency5) Pulls on your heart-
strings� is scam may be modi-
� ed to include any of the following:
• Friend traveling overseas, money was stolen
• Email solicitation for funds with a similar story
• Debt collectors for your
grandchild’s accounts Bottom line, never give out
personal information to an unknown caller and never wire funds to an unknown recipient. Check out the claims � rst and then act. It only takes a simple phone call to verify your grandchild is home safely.

Time for New Year’s � nancial resolutions
� is year, in addition to hitting the gym, learning that second language and getting better organized, why not also consider a few � nancial resolutions?
First, contribute more to your IRA and your 401(k). Next, try to build an emergency fund containing
six to 12 months’ worth of living expenses. Without such a fund, you may have to dip into your long-term investments to pay for unexpected bills. Also, try to reduce your debt as much as possible.
And here’s one more idea: Don’t overreact to volatility in the � nancial markets.
