SunTrust survey: This Halloween, Americans say bats, pirates represent financial mindset

Did you know that what you decide to wear for Halloween may represent your financial state of mind? A poll conducted by SunTrust Banks Inc. (shared in a Northside Neighbor by The Marietta Daily Journal), revealed respondents associated bats with “sleeping than thinking of finances” and vampires as “paying the bills as sucking the life out of paychecks.” A funny yet interesting way of seeing how finances mix with Halloween!

Senior Life Fair ‘trick-or-treating’ for adults

Now this is a Halloween event that brought in the treats, even without candies. John Robison’s post for The Emporia Gazette showed how the 2016 Flint Hills Senior Life Fair served as an “adult trick-or-treating” for senior participants. Instead of asking for sweets, visitors got retirement information and elder care services by visiting each table in the venue. With vendors ranging from health care providers to senior living experts, seniors definitely brought home treats.

Additionally, enjoy this year’s Halloween by making sure you learn more about long term care insurance. Seniors can be sure they have access to proper and essential assistance for them to enjoy festivities; caregivers can be given the support they need when looking after their loved ones or patients. Happy Halloween!
