The year-end is fast approaching, with less than 3 months to go before we all start winding down for some well-deserved time off.

In the lead up we suggest that you review the following key "allowances" and financial considerations:

REVIEWING YOUR FINANCIAL PLAN

The final quarter of the year is a good time to "spring clean" your financial plan to ensure that you are on track to achieve the goals set out at the beginning of the year.

REVIEWING YOUR WILL

We encourage you to review your will or have a new will drafted.

HOLIDAY SAVINGS PLAN

If you haven't started already, now is the time to start saving for those end-of-year expenses.

This year has been a challenging year for us all. For the last quarter, our advice to you is to focus on what you can control and not focus on things that are out of your hands.

Some of the things you can control are your finances.

Get in touch with a financial planner at Nautical BlueStar to discuss how you stay in control when it comes to your savings, investments and insurance. https://www.sanlamadvice.co.za/bluestar/Nautical/contact-us/

Ladies, here’s how you can help the men in your life take care of their health 💙

As the CEOs of the household, we know it’s not always easy to get them to book that check-up — but Nautical BlueStar has got you covered!

Here’s how to lead the way to healthier living:

1.Make the appointment. Men need regular check-ups just like women to detect and prevent health problems. Book a lunch date as a post check-up reward.

2.Plan to exercise together. Many health conditions, such as colon cancer, can be prevented by regular exercise. Go for a walk, or play a game of tennis over the weekend. Also, guys are very much into their gadgets apps and tech. There are a number of men’s health apps available today to help the man in your life to live healthier.

3.Tweak your diet. Whether the goal is to lose weight or to gain muscle; a healthy diet is the way to go. Incorporate more fruit and veg, lean proteins like fish or chicken, high-fibre foods like beans and legumes, oats and avocado, and wholegrains like brown rice and pasta, whole wheat bread and quinoa.

4.Encourage him to stop smoking. Smoking is linked to heart disease, lung disease, cancer and strokes.

5.Find ways to eliminate stress. Balance work with downtime or a fun hobby.

Talk to your partner about health related articles you come across; ask him to make sure that he’s around for a long time.
