I mean, why else would they call it Thanksgiving? – Erma Bombeck • Who does not thank for little will not thank for much. – Estonian proverb • Got no check books, got no banks. Still I’d like to express my thanks – I got the sun in the mornin’ and the moon at night. – Irving Berlin • The unthankful heart… discovers no mercies; but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings! – Henry Ward Beecher • Best of all is it to preserve everything in a pure, still heart, and let there be for every pulse a thanksgiving, and for every breath a song. – Konrad von Gesner • An optimist is a person who starts a new diet on Thanksgiving Day. – Irv Kupcinet • Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving. – WT Purkiser • I love Thanksgiving turkey–it’s the only time in Los Angeles that you see natural breasts. – Arnold Schwarzenegger Page 2 Atlantis on Brickell Condominium Consultant Corner WHAT IS AN ASSOCIATION BUDGET? A budget provides the Association with a projection of expenses for the coming year, and serves as a basis for determining financial obligations of its members. The budget, after adopted, becomes the basis for allocating the annual assessments. Remember, operating an Association is similar to running a business. You must plan your revenues and expenditures for the coming year. Associations are required to have annual budgets. There must be a separate operating and reserve budget. The operating budget is a guideline that helps the Association plan daily income and expenses. The reserve budget includes items such as roofing, paving, and painting, or other delayed maintenance or expected capital expenditures costing over $10,000.00. A properly done reserve study will help the Association plan for future projects that need to be addressed.
