This book will assist people who will soon retire, or who have already retired, to understand how tax works in relation to their retirement so that retirees can make informed, tax-efficient decisions regarding their retirement savings. It will help them to get more out of their retirement savings, as well as expose the pitfalls that they need to look out for to avoid nasty surprises.
The book will also provide guidance on the methods available to retirees to reduce their tax liability to ensure that they pay the least amount of tax legally possible so that they can put more money into their back pocket. It explains how to effectively utilise certain tax exemptions and make the most out of tax credits, which are only available to persons over the age of 65 years.
In addition, it will explain how retirees can access a possible tax refund, and how other types of income that they may earn to supplement their pension, such as rental income and dividends, are taxed.

Escape to Enchanted Hill in this historical mystery where two
people with a dark, shared past collide while working undercover at
a glittering mansion on the California coast. The year is 1930 and
Cora McCavanagh is posing as a maid at Hollywood magnate Truman
Byrd's legendary estate. She's closing in on the damning evidence
she needs for a high-profile client. An aspiring PI, Cora was
trained by her father, a former prison guard at the notorious
Pelican Island, where Cora grew up surrounded by hardened
criminals. Which is why she recognizes Jack Yates as soon as he
walks through the door. The last time she saw him was on an
ill-fated night that changed the course of her life and still
haunts her more than a decade later. Cora never expected to see
Jack again--and now a single misstep could cause both their secret
identities to come crashing down. They strike a tentative truce to
help each other during a week of parties overflowing with champagne
and caviar. But there are puzzles hidden in every corner of Truman
Byrd's labyrinthine estate, and if Cora is to finally learn the
truth about Jack Yates, she must unravel a sinister history that
the rich and powerful will do anything to keep concealed. Filled
with intrigue and Old Hollywood glamour, Enchanted Hill is an
unforgettable, sweepingly romantic novel set in a world you won't
want to leave.

Learn how to cultivate student voices and facilitate equitable
participation so that young people are prepared to speak up and
lead when the moment calls for it. In a world where public speaking
often determines whose needs are addressed and whose values
prevail, how can we create brave classroom spaces where young
people can effectively express their thoughts and advocate for
themselves and others? In Amplify Student Voices, AnnMarie Baines,
Diana Medina, and Caitlin Healy introduce Expression-Driven
Teaching to show how centering youth voices and expression in the
classroom meets both academic and social and emotional learning
goals. The authors promote instruction in various forms of public
speaking-storytelling, debate, poetry, presentation, and
self-advocacy-as a way to pursue equity in education and counter
the oppression that has long silenced the voices of marginalized
groups. This engaging book features extensive first-person accounts
from young people who describe their journey toward effective
public speaking and how it has helped them affirm their identity,
confront life's many challenges, and pursue opportunities with
increased confidence. Their insights also inform and supplement the
authors' practical recommendations and how-tos for incorporating
the various public speaking formats into everyday instruction at
all grade levels and across subject areas. Both informative and
inspiring, Amplify Student Voices challenges traditional notions of
"good" public speaking, broadens its definition, and demonstrates
how to engage learners to create a world that is more inclusive and
just.

"Part wish-fulfillment fantasy...part gritty whodunit,"* Splinters
of Scarlet is a spellbinding and atmospheric historical fantasy set
in nineteenth-century Denmark, where secrets can kill and magic is
a deadly gift, for fans of The Gilded Wolves and Pride and
Premeditation. (*Kirkus) "Emily Bain Murphy weaves an exquisite
tale of mystery, enchantment and valor. I loved this spellbinding
book!" --Rebecca Ross, author of The Queen's Rising For Marit
Olsen, magic is all about strategy: it flows freely through her
blood, but every use leaves behind a deadly, ice-like build-up
within her veins called the Firn. Marit knows how dangerous it is
to let too much Firn build up--after all, it killed her sister--and
she has vowed never to use her thread magic. But when Eve, a fellow
orphan whom Marit views like a little sister, is adopted by the
wealthy Helene Vestergaard, Marit will do anything to stay by Eve's
side. She decides to risk the Firn and uses magic to secure a job
as a seamstress in the Vestergaard household. But Marit has a
second, hidden agenda: her father died while working in the
Vestergaards' jewel mines--and it might not have been an accident.
The closer Marit gets to the truth about the Vestergaard family,
the more she realizes she and everyone she's come to love are in
danger. When she finds herself in the middle of a treacherous
deception that goes all the way up to the king of Denmark, magic
may be the only thing that can save her--if it doesn't kill her
first.
