Wine and Dime Episode 35 - For the Love of Pets with Jane Yoo
In this episode of Wine and Dime I chat with Jane Financial founder, Jane Yoo. We talk about her path to the opening of her own firm, which was unique indeed. We also chat about the love for her cat Zoe, as well as her involvement with a local shelter called Cat Town. I truly enjoyed learning more about Jane and I’m sure you will too. So sit back, pop open a nice bottle of your favorite wine and enjoy the episode!

ABOUT ME
I’m based in sunny Oakland, CA. Before moving to the San Francisco Bay Area, I built my financial planning chops at the Social Security Administration and Vanguard, and I got my MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. In 2012, I started a financial planning residency program at Aspiriant, one of the largest independent wealth management firms in the US. In my four years there, I worked closely with high net worth families, particularly corporate executives who were preparing for retirement and/or needed help with their company stock options and RSUs. I’ve invested many years in my professional training, and I offer this expertise and commitment to you.
I’m a proud aunt, and I’m grateful that my nieces are nearby. As a Chicago native, I’m still giddy about the Cubs’ 2016 World Series victory. My cat, Zoe, is the apple of my eye. Community service is important to me, and I volunteer for Cat Town, a cat rescue group that helps stressed, sick, and senior cats get ready for their forever homes. I also provide pro bono financial planning through the Financial Planning Association. I enjoy Star Wars books and animation as I impatiently wait for the next film. Finally, incorporating mindfulness into my life helps me become a better financial planner, friend, sister, and aunt.
Cat Town
Cat Town was founded by Ann Dunn while she was a volunteer at Oakland Animal Services, Oakland’s municipal shelter. Ann saw the challenges faced by the severely under resourced shelter to adequately care for the number of animals it receives each year, and the specific difficulties cats face in a shelter environment. Ann was quickly joined by other shelter volunteers to create an alternative to the shelter for the cats who are at greatest risk for euthanasia.
Part of what makes Cat Town unique is that several members of our core team are still volunteers at OAS and work closely with the cats there. This helps us identify the cats who most need our help. And, while we are fully independent of OAS, we work in close collaboration with shelter staff and consider supporting that shelter to be integral to our mission.
Cats Adopted by Year from Cat Town
Starting with a foster-based program in 2011, we now have a network of more than 50 foster homes in and around Oakland. We reserve the foster homes for the cats who most need a calm, quiet environment to thrive. Generally these are cats who are more sensitive to change, such as older cats, cats who don’t do well with other cats and/or cats with special needs. Potential adopters meet these cats in their foster home, where they are most relaxed and able to show their true personalities.
In 2014, we launched Cat Town Cafe (now Cat Town Cafe and Adoption Center) in collaboration with Adam Myatt — aka the Cat Man of West Oakland. Today, our adoption center allows us to give cats a place to socialize, learning from other more confident cats how to interact with humans. In our free-roaming space, guests and cats alike can enjoy a relaxed environment and get to know one another without the stress of the shelter, reducing the barriers to the adoption process.
In 2017, we expanded our adoption center and opened The Studios at Cat Town, where Oakland's most difficult to place shelter cats can get dedicated attention from our staff and volunteers, while being afforded greater opportunities for adoption. Visitors to Cat Town can ask to see the expanded space and visit with approved cats.
Cat Town is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, and all donations are tax-deductible. Our tax ID is 27-3838132.
The Wine and Wineries
Schransberg Sparkling Wines
Schramsberg’s founders, Jack and Jamie Davies were determined to seek out a simpler, more meaningful life. In 1965, after a yearlong search, they discovered a run-down winery on the mountainside above St. Helena. The 19th century Victorian mansion presided over the tangled remains of once stately gardens and underground cellars. The historic Schramsberg property had been abandoned for years, but the Davies were looking for a challenge. On that day they decided Schramsberg would be brought back to life.
The Davies had an ambition to make wine, but not just any wine. They were setting out to produce a world-class sparkling wine, and it was a lofty goal. Later that year, the 1965 Blanc de Blancs came to be, and would be the first commercial use of Chardonnay in American sparkling wine.
Castel Grisch Winery
"Growing Vine by Vine For Over 30 Years". Established in 1983 by a Swiss German couple, Castel Grisch has been devoted to providing the best experience and wine for its visitors. Castel Grisch sets on a gorgeous site with breathtaking views of Seneca Lake. The vineyard at Castel Grisch is home to 40 acres of vines ranging from native varieties, to Vinifera varieties. We utilize the freshest, and best quality grapes to craft our wines, and it truly shows in the quality. Since our founding in 1983, we've striven to produce the most consistent, and best quality wine, vintage to vintage. Our wines are created to appeal to a whole variety of tastes, shaped to your liking. So why drink our wine? Because we make it for you.

Wine and Dime Episode 34 - Welcome to the Team Kerrie Beene
In this Episode of Wine and Dime, I introduce a new member of Irvine Wealth Planning Strategies, Kerrie Beene. We have a nice conversation about career choices, studying for the CFP exam, college planning and of course some of our favorite wines. It was a great conversation and I know you all will love it as much as I did. Welcome to the team Kerrie!!
A little bit about Kerrie Beene…
My own personal financial journey has taught me that while their important, life is more than numbers.
Finding joy in the journey towards personal goals is key.
A smart plan with a lot of heart goes a long way to keeping daily financial decisions in line with your long term goals.
I graduated from Southeastern Oklahoma State University with a degree in Business Administration and hold a certificate in Financial Planning from Wake Forest University. I passed the CFP exam in November of 2016 and I'm currently working towards my service hours.
I began my career in financial planning by starting my own company, Beene Financial Planning. Having the desire to work as a team, I then joined Irvine Wealth Planning Strategies.
My roots in Southeast Oklahoma have given me great insight on the need for financial planning that is not just investment focused, but also on all the other financial planning decisions. I enjoy, and work best, with those who are ready to take control of their finances and use their money to fulfill their goals and dreams.
The Wines and Wineries
Girls Gone Wine
Three girlfriends in Hochatown, Okla., decided that a winery would be a fun gathering place for groups of friends.
They created Girls Gone Wine to be more than just a tasting room—it is a fun boutique winery with a funky, awesome gift shop. Though there is no vineyard, all the wine is fermented and produced on site--their slogan is "Girls Gone Wine...not Girls Gone Farming!"
You can enjoy a complimentary tasting, great shopping, gather with your friends on the patio to enjoy a glass or even make a custom batch of wine to give as gifts to your business clients, as wedding party favors or just for your own cellar.
Twisted Sisters
The pomegranate's earthy, rich juice balances with the slightly spicy, robust zinfandel-like grapes creating a delicate sweetness that has a particular uniqueness on the first sip and leaves you wanting more..
Friends 4 Life
A refreshing, easy-drinking wine. The white merlot style wine is enhanced by ripe strawberries.
Friends 4 Life began while our friend and fellow wine girl, Shawn Hutchings, was battling breast cancer. Shawn assisted in the design of the label. She is the cute one with the on her t-shirt. The SOS on our T-shirts stands for "Sisters of Shawn", which symbolizes our bond as wine sisters forever!
Boundary Breaks Vineyard
About
We are off the main road, so do not expect to find crowds and buses at Boundary Breaks. We focus on the vineyard and on making wines that score 90 points and higher. Located just north of Lodi Point State Park, we offer world-class Rieslings and the best views on Seneca Lake.

Wine and Dime Episode 33 - In the Land of China with Chuck Donalies
In this episode of Wine and Dime, I chat with the owner of Donalies Financial Planning, LLC, Chuck Donalies. We talk about his path to becoming a financial planner, his love of exercise, his family, and of course, our favorite wines. We take time to talk about his recent trip to China with his oldest daughter and some of the impressions that they came away with. It truly was a fascinating conversation that I’m sure you will enjoy. So pop open a bottle of your favorite wine and enjoy the episode!

Chuck lives in Washington, D.C. with his wife and two little girls.

The Wines
Chuck’s Pick
Aslina Wines - Chardonnay
A complex fruity chardonnay, creamy and full. Partial wooding gives this wine the edge and to show the beautiful tropical fruit and limy character. Good acidity balancing the fruit and wood.12% of the wine was in barrels for 12 months while the rest was on the lees in the tank.
Amy’s Pick
Belhurst Estate - Pinot Grigio
Pinot Grigio is the Italian name for Pinot Gris, a white mutation of the Pinot family which shares its genetic fingerprint with Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc et al. The term Pinot Grigio has become strongly associated with lighter wines produced in great quantities, particularly in northern Italy.
The refreshing Pinot Grigio style has enjoyed great success in various countries, most recently the United States, (where it is fondly nicknamed "Greej") and Australia. The most common descriptors of the style are "light", "crisp" and "dry". These characteristics are complemented by aroma notes citing lemon, green apple and blossoms.

Wine and Dime Episode 32 - A Discussion Around Student Loans with Travis Hornsby
In this Episode of Wine and Dime I speak with Travis Hornsby. Travis is CEO & Chief student loan advisor for https://www.studentloanplanner.com/. If you’ve listened to this podcast for any amount of time, you already know how passionate I am about the Student Debt crisis that we have in the United States. During my conversation with Travis we talk about that and the some of the options you may have to pay down that debt. So sit back, pop open a bottle of your favorite wine and enjoy the episode!

HOW STUDENT LOAN PLANNER GOT STARTED
I should introduce myself. I’m Travis Hornsby, and I’m the chief student loan planner around here.
I started Student Loan Planner in October 2016 after helping my wife and her friends figure out their six figure student loans.
I used to be a bond trader, so I took my excel heavy skill set and built models for how to save money paying back student debt.
When my wife and I tackled her debt from med school, there were not a lot of resources out there for professionals like her. Most of the sites that did exist just wanted us to refinance so they could earn a commission.
All of our team members either hold the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) or Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP®) designations.
We all have a passion for conquering debt's hold on your life and mental energy.
Belhurst Castle
is a former private residence on the shores of Seneca Lake in Geneva, New York. It was designed by architects Fuller & Wheeler and built between 1885 and 1889. The three-story, nine bay wide Romanesque Revival style mansion is constructed of Medina sandstone. It has a slate gable roof, one-story solarium, and four rectangular stone chimneys. It features projecting porches, bays, towers with conical and pyramidal roofs, eyebrow windows, and a porte cochere with Syrian arch.
Supplemented by modern facilities, Belhurst Castle has been adapted for hotel and retail uses. It holds a hotel with three choices of lodging (Vinifera Inn, Chambers in the Castle, and White Springs Manor); two ballrooms to host weddings, two restaurants (Edgar's Restaurant and Stonecutters); spa, and a winery.
Belhurst Pinot Noir
Intense blueberry and blackberry notes penetrate through this fruity, forward Pinot Noir. Hints of savory herbs add elegance to an otherwise one-dimensional palate that finishes with big, coarse tannins.

Wine and Dime Episode 29 - 13 and Life to Live with Donald Horack
In this episode of Wine and Dime, I had the pleasure of speaking a very astute 13 year old named Donald Horack. In some ways, Donald isn't your 13 year old kid. While he does enjoy many things a typical 13 year old enjoys, he also has interests that some adults don't have. In this interview, our conversation takes us from the G7 summit to Ronald Reagan, to his favorite Root Beer! (See below for that) I had a great time talking to Donald and I think we can learn a lot about the generation from this young man. Thank you for listening and enjoy the show!

The Wine!
Lakewook vineyards History
In 1951, the Stamp family moved to Lakewood Farm, a run-down peach and apple orchard on the west side of Seneca Lake. The next spring, they started planting grapes. The original grapes were those favored by the large wineries and grape juice companies. In the mid-80’s the family diversified to add some new varieties, with the hope of someday using them to make their own wines.
In 1988, Monty and Beverly Stamp and their children pressed the grapes for their first vintage.
A Vision Realized
Lakewood Vineyards Winery opened to the public in June 1989 with 7 varieties of wine, made from estate-grown grapes from their 45 acres of vineyards.
Today, with 80 acres of vineyards and 3 Stamp family generations working together, the winery produces a diverse selection of wines. Their dedicated and talented team prides themselves on offering Finger Lakes wines of exceptional quality and value.
This diamond in the rough opens with aromas of cherry, plum and toast. The palate is soft with youthful tannins finishing warm with hints of stone fruit. Lakewood’s Pinot pairs beautifully with duck, wild game, salmon and other dishes that would ascend when matched with a beautifully crafted Pinot Noir. - Winery

OUR VALUES
Our goal is to be your financial coach, and enable you to focus on healing and finding joy in life again. We take a holistic approach, focusing on helping you navigate financial matters during the hardest times. Our seven values reflect our tailored approach.
The Wineries and Wine
John and Ann Martini moved to Anthony Road in 1973 at the urging of a friend that touted the joys of grape growing in the Finger Lakes. They loaded up 2 young children and left their home in Baltimore, where John worked for WR Grace to set up their farming life on the west side of Seneca Lake. Surprisingly neither Ann nor John had an agricultural background, unless you count John’s youthful summers at his grandparent’s farm in Melvin, Illinois. But together and with the help of family and friends they planted their first 5-acres, Foch, in the summer of 1973. The vineyard grew, to 30-acres, as did the Martini family, to 4 children, but it was quickly realized that an outside job was needed to support their endeavors. John joined the staff at the Cornell’s Experiment Station in Geneva and Ann took over the day to day operations and maintenance of both the household and the vineyard.
Devonian Red
Sedimentary rock formed during the Devonian Period - a chapter of geological history in the Finger Lakes, is the foundation of the soils on which our grapes are grown. Year in and year out, our Devonian Red, a medium-bodied dry red, is quite delicious and a great value!
Caymus Cabernet
A dark, scarlet red color, with powerful aromas of sweet ripe cabernet grapes. Initial impressions are fantastically appealing, brooding to expansive textural sensations of finely grained cacao tannins. The whole of the wine is balanced, rich, expressive and impressively complex. The backbone of fine tannin and sweet ripeness is a carry-over from perfectly mature fruit.
Proud Supporter and Collaborator with the
Seneca Lake Wine Trail
New York State’s Largest and Most Active Wine Trail.
In 1986, the Seneca Lake Wine Trail was formed in the heart of New York State’s Finger Lakes region to attract more visitors to experience its rich history, beauty, and production of world-class wines. Today, Seneca Lake Wine Trail is the largest and most active wine trail in New York State with a community of over 30 wineries, a distillery, several breweries and hard cider producers and a meadery.
Seneca Lake’s natural combination of deep water, at 632 feet it is the deepest of the Finger Lakes, and sloping hillsides provides the ideal microclimate for grape growing. Its unique geology and topography protect the growth of hardy native grapes and premium hybrids as well as more delicate varieties such as Riesling,Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir.
We have a lot to be proud of, here on the Seneca Lake Wine Trail. But, one of our finest characteristics is that we're at the heart of a greater Finger Lakes community. The Finger Lakes are an amazing place to visit and to live, with old world-charm, beautiful food, beautiful wine, beautiful people and a beautiful way of life.
