FOOTBALL COACH OR FATHER, WHICH IS IT?
By Dwight Short
The sport that Americans spend time watching and playing in virtual computer games is back for a new season. Fall is a unique time of year in the Midwest and especially in Ohio, as the sport of football dominates the schedules for many families. The image of football coaches stalking the sidelines and masterminding offensive and defensive schemes brings the names of many icons to mind. In fact, the tougher the exterior and the meaner the look of a coach is often associated with greater success. Demanding standards for performance on the field is non-negotiable!

Asking for a raise
Dear Dave,What's the best way to ask for a raise at work?Anonymous
Dear Anonymous,I think the first 10 sentences that come out of your mouth should be about gratitude. Let your boss know how much you like being there and all the things you appreciate about the business and your job. It's always a good idea to get the point across that you're grateful for what you already have ...

Short sale behind the scenes
Dear Dave,What goes on behind the scenes with a short sale? We're trying to buy a house that way, but it seems like it's taking forever.Jennifer
Dear Jennifer,A short sale, of course, is when a mortgage lien holder sells a house short of what it takes to pay off the mortgage, but gives a full release and delivers a clear title to the purchaser anyway.
Let's say you ...

MISSED WOODSTOCK & HAVE NO REGRETS!
By Dwight Short
Publicity the past few weeks about the 40th anniversary of Woodstock reminded me of how different my life has been compared to popular society. As a young man in my Mid-20's when Woodstock took place, it struck me how revisionist historians are recording this event as something wonderful when for me it was most disgusting. So, when your grandchildren ask, "where were you during Woodstock" here is my answer!

Spoiled all around!
Dear Dave,My husband and I are not on the same page when it comes to money and our three teenage daughters. I think they should learn to work and make some money, but he doesn't care if they work or not. Plus, he insists on regularly buying them big-ticket items they don't deserve like cameras and fancy phones. What can I do about this?Susan
Dear Susan,You're right about one ...

Knowing when to move up
Dear Dave,I started a small business a few years ago. Since then, it's grown larger than I anticipated. When should you change from a sole proprietorship to something else?Mike

A BUCKEYE FAN CHEERING & PRAYING FOR TIM TEBOW
By Dwight Short
Last week on ESPN, there were several discussions about the popularity of Florida's Sr QB Tim Tebow. Having close ties to the Ohio State Buckeyes has not discouraged me from also cheering loud and clear for this young man who passed on the NFL draft to play a fourth year of college football.
