THE TIME TO PREVENT DEMENTIA IS WHEN YOU'RE YOUNG

I don't think people realize that the best time to think about how to protect yourself from suffering from one of the many different types of dementia is when you're in your late 20's and early 30's. That's why this class is so important.

My friend Cristina Rodriguez from Silver Lining Dementia is offering this amazing and important class tomorrow, Tuesday, May 18th at two different locations for you. This class will be IN PERSON.

LOOK: Here are the 50 best beach towns in America

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.

Keep reading to see if your favorite beach town made the cut.
