In the Twenty-First Century, members of the Greatest Generation have become sitting ducks Self-interested relatives and acquaintances--who, until lately, were often content to fight over the spoils AFTER the death of the senior citizen--now, increasingly, scheme to snatch the money and run while the aged victim is still alive From deciding between having a will v. a trust...from tips on managing income-producing residential real property...and planning for prospective hospitalizations and incapacity...to making general durable powers of attorney work to your benefit rather than to your detriment...and managing con artists and untrustworthy relations...and dealing with government bureaucrats who want to infringe on your precious privacy and independence--this is the book for those who prefer to age with their dignity and self-worth intact...and for those who cherish the seniors in their lives, or plan on becoming seniors themselves one day
