Do you have elderly parents? You NEED this book!

I quickly found information without having to wade through pretentious mumbo-jumbo. The author is straightforward, clear, and concise. There's no "see how smart I am" from this guy. Instead, it's written in a conversational, intelligent and kind tone. I *really* appreciated that because I was dealing with medical staff at the time who were addressing me in patronizingly cold tones. Great book! I was glad I found it!

Fundamentally important reading

Taking Care Of Mom & Dad: The Money, Politics And Emotions That Come With Supporting Your Parents is a straightforward guide by actuary and retirement issues expert Mike Rust on dealing with the diverse and inherent financial and emotional issues of supporting elderly parents by adult children. In an era when Social Security and Medicare can no longer be relied upon, Taking Care Of Mom & Dad covers the critically import issues of getting the best health insurance; organizing pension benefits; investing parental money safely and efficiently; using living wills, powers of attorney, and trusts; long-term care options; coping with family turmoil, and more. Taking Care Of Mom & Dad is fundamentally important reading for anyone charged with the responsibility of assisting their parents or other aging adult family members with respect to their financial, insurance, medical, legal, and long-term needs.

Must Have Book for Anybody and Everybody!

I received this book from a friend. It's called "Taking Care of Mom and Dad", but the information it contains applies to anybody who expects to retire and grow old someday. There are chapters on Health Care, Pensions, Social Security, Long Term Care, Nursing Homes, 401(k)s, Life insurance, Annuities, Lifestyle Adjustments, Real Estate, Reverse Mortgages, Estate Planning, Transferring Authority, and Probate. It discusses how to find money you didn't know you had, and how to use assets to your advantage. There is also a chapter on scams and how there are people out there who prey on the elderly. This is they type of book everybody should read, if only for planning your own retirement.

Very helpful and easy to understand

Really well done. Helpful information for a what can be a scary and difficult time.
