Good resource

I first read this book when it came out and recently picked it up again. It's an easy to read book that is probably best for people concerned about their elderly parents welfare. Also good for recent retirees. The book covers a lot of different topics - nothing too in depth - but that keeps the book from getting too dry.

Keep this book close by - If you're lucky you'll need it

If you are 50 or if you have an elderly parent or relative this is the book for you. It is easy to understand, written with some humor and a lot of sensitivity. As one of the authors, Professor Hegland, states this is a book to keep on your nightstand. The table of contents allows one to find any subject readily. The book is not filled with forms but with valuable information to help the reader make informed decision. This book can be used as a guide to help us work our way through that maze of retirement, social security, trusts, probate, to name just a few topics.
