Having purchased Windsor Securities, Inc., in 2005, Steven Prusky led the way in technological innovations for the company’s trading system. When he is not involved in company matters, Steven Prusky enjoys fine food; perhaps his favorite dish are sea scallops, particularly grilled or with lemon butter.Scallops can be prepared quickly. For grilling, a light brushing of olive oil is all Steven uses.The following recipe for lemon butter scallops takes only 15 minutes to complete. Ingredients include one pound of scallops, one tablespoon of unsalted butter, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. To make the sauce, you will need more kosher salt and ground black pepper, two tablespoons of unsalted butter, and one lemon’s worth of juice. Additional sauce ingredients include two cloves of minced garlic and, if desired, two tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley.Begin cooking by melting one tablespoon of butter on medium heat in a big skillet. After taking off the muscle on the side of the scallops, rinse them in cold water and dab them dry. Sprinkle salt and pepper on them, according to taste.Place batches of scallops in the skillet in a single layer. Fry and flip them for one or two minutes per side until they are golden brown and the middle is translucent. Keep each batch warm after cooking.Make the sauce by melting two tablespoons of butter in the skillet. Put in the garlic and cook the mixture for about a minute, stirring often until the ingredients are fragrant. Mix in the lemon juice and add salt and pepper to taste. Add the lemon butter mixture to the scallops and serve immediately. Sprinkle on parsley for extra flavor.

While offering certain benefits, the move away from paper money nonetheless detaches millennials from their expenses and potentially leads to overspending. With this in mind, here are three digital applications millennials should consider to help them manage their finances:1. Mint notifies the user how much they are spending daily. It also gives real-time access to pending payments and account balances. It brings together all of the finances of the user in one application with a friendly and easy-to-access interface.2. Robin Hood requires its users to select their own investments, with its mission to democratize access to the financial markets. Furthermore, the application is expanding internationally, meaning users outside United States can now have access to the application.3. Albert brings the idea of giving the best financial advice with simplicity and jargon-free instructions. It’s easy to take action directly from the application and it’s free. Moreover, it sends tips on financial improvement, credit card usage, and insurance policies.Mr. Prusky is not recommending these or any other services. He does not offer expertise in giving financial advice, but is rather a discretionary money manager, who accepts clients' funds for a defined method of investing and allocates those funds as he sees fit within the confines of the Client Contract. The notes above are personal reflections and are not to be construed as advice.
