MONEY SECRETS FOR THE SANDWICH GENERATION
This comprehensive, compassionate book is written to help guide those simultaneously caring for aging parents/grandparents and adult/minor children. Many feel “squeezed in the financial middle” as the two sides tug at both their heart strings and their purse strings. It provides a wealth of financial care-giving information and lays out steps you can take to help ease any bewilderment, guilt and sense of helplessness you may have.
​
The book defines the sandwich generation—who it is and provides perspective on how it came to be, along with an outlook for the future. It has in-depth chapters on taking care of yourself first, as well as how to care for the other two sides of the “sandwich.” Retirement secrets; hints on long-term care giving options; common money scams and how to avoid them; dealing with adult offspring living in your home; reverse mortgages; and ways to improve one’s finances all are covered in great detail along with pages of useful resources and references.
