What If?

Taking a break from thinking about my friend’s recent diagnosis of cancer, I participated in a discussion with yet another friend on the virtue of saving money and the benefits of compound interest. Anyone who has engaged in financial planning knows that starting a savings plan early in life will achieve significantly greater funds than starting later in life. These funds can be used for retirement or to pay for any of the expenses or loss of income not covered by insurance caused by any disease or major injury.
?As I returned to considering my friend’s situation, I had one of those ‘what if’ thoughts. What if I had started donating money to cancer research when I was young, would this possibly have accelerated a cure for or the prevention of the cancer of my friend.
?Cancer was around when I was born, now a long time ago. It is still here today. And, in reality, it probably will be here for a long time after I am gone. However, I am a numbers person who deals with stats and finance and it is clear that the battle against cancer is being won. Research has led to greatly improved numbers of people who live longer and survive cancer. So, although the war is not over, each person who survives is a victory because of earlier diagnosis and improved cancer treatments.
?The Cancer League of Colorado is a major fundraiser for cancer research in Colorado. https://www.cancerleague.org/ . A small amount of the funds raised are distributed to over thirty community organizations who provide a full spectrum of services to individuals and family impacted by cancer.
?Until cancer is conquered, there is never enough funding. I am raising funding by setting up a team – Dakin Capital – which will participate in the 2023 Denver Over the Edge Challenge. https://www.cancerleague.org/over-the-edge In this event, I and other fundraisers will call attention to the fight against cancer by rappelling from the skywalk of McGregor Square in Denver, Colorado on September 7, 8 and 9.
?A donation to the Cancer League of Colorado may be viewed like a savings account. The earlier you donate and the more you donate, the greater the long-term impact on fighting cancer. Your donation may be viewed as an investment in your own future as well as those of your family, friends, and community. The return on investment may is great if it saves only a single life.
?To begin or continue your investment, you can make a donation at the Dakin Capital Team page on the Denver Over the Edge website https://www.denverovertheedge.com/teams/dakin-capital/ .
?Thank you for your consideration of this request.
