My husband was a professional track and field athlete who worked really hard to get himself out of precarity in Long Beach, went to a great college, was a NCAA champion, broke a world record, etc. 

Perhaps giving them a ring to do a casual catch up every fortnight or so? 

Another is, would this reasonably be the way to start out investing rather than trying to jump into a ring, with well seasoned investors?

You can take money from the Trust as a benefit or convert assets to yourself, e.g. write yourself a check and put into your checking account, then buy that diamond ring.  

I will give them a ring. 

This rings true to me.

Both were in my favorite inner-ring suburb of Cleveland.

If you are picking up golf you wouldn't worry about what to serve at the Master's Champion Dinner or how to handle endorsements before you could hit a chip from 8 yards off the green.Looking back, sometimes I wonder if I should have gotten my license.

Would love some help here YES 100% the fees are meaningless, I pay 8% and have everything taken care of, my phone never rings.

In single family homes without shared entrances Ring, Simplisafe, etc seem to be great options.
