The only module based, learning program that answers the question: “what happens if I outlive my assets?”–has just been released.

Just a quick note, that after a lot of struggling to find the time to work on something really big and a lot of prodding from my amazing subscribers..

I thought I would share this audio post from NPR:

I often tell my clients that at the first sign of any form of dementia (and hopefully much sooner), they must put in place a properly drafted power of attorney. It is critical that a trusted family member or friend is given the authority to help make decisions on behalf of the person with Alzheimer’s. [...]
