Avenue Calgary Magazine January 2017 Back Issue

The Money Issue

This month, we broach the subject of money in two feature stories. “The Bank of Mom and Dad” looks at how parents are helping finance big-ticket items like homes or businesses for their adult children and offers advice on how to manage wealth transfer most effectively. In “Manage Your Money Now,” we look at the best tools, apps and services to help people track their finances, manage their debt and plan for a rainy day. And what better way to get the best value for your money than shopping at consignment clothing stores? We talk with five consignment boutique owners about what’s driving this trend and tell you how to be a savvy second-hand shopper. Our annual Weddings Guide is also in this issue, offering the best tips and tricks for tying the not, whether you’re planning a spring, summer, fall or winter wedding.
