Planning For the Future - Are You in Good Legal Shape?

People have different approaches to the future. Some just drift along not giving much thought to it and hoping it will take care of itself. Others are more pragmatic and want to know for what they should be planning. By the time we reach 50, a little pragmatism is needed. Whether you are a boomer, a retiree or a confirmed workaholic for the rest of your life, there are issues you should know about and to which you should give considered thought.

To this end, the Council on Aging has prepared a series of five programs to address these issues. The first two, "Social Security and Medicare" and "Planning Wisely in Good Times and Bad," were held in the spring Three more are planned for the fall and winter. Whether you are 40 or 80, or planning to live forever, these programs will offer solutions for the rest of your life.
