编辑推荐 Review Financial guidance for the "sandwich generation." Baby Boomers are finding themselves in an odd place, concerned with caring for their kids and their parents--all while thinking ahead to their own retirement. Meanwhile, the old standbys, like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, are all changing. Weisman effectively addresses the Boomers' specific financial needs and concerns. A leading elder law attorney and host of the nationwide radio show A Touch of Grey, he presents a straightforward guide to planning for your and your parents' future. He takes the guesswork out of IRAs, 401(k)s, annuities, reverse mortgages, long-term care insurance, home care, assisted living, nursing homes, living wills and advance health-care directives. Readers will also find up-to-date information on the latest Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid changes, as recently passed by Congress, plus useful information on "secret" tax breaks. The author's clear and humorous style is engaging, even when the subject matter gets a little heavy. A smart, readable guide for Baby Boomers looking to face the future with confidence and financial freedom. --Kirkus Reports
