Mother, Banks and Options to Avoid Poverty

July 23, 2013/in Retirement Planning/by Bill Broich

Home equity loans have been, until recently, an easy way for Americans to finance their spending. For seniors with mortgage free homes, one of the most popular ways to do this is by means of the reverse mortgage. A reverse mortgage allows you to borrow money against the equity of your house, without having to pay it back in installments. The repayment takes place you die, move house or sell it off.

May 7, 2013/in Investing/by Bill Broich

Should a long term investor who started in 1985 have stayed in real estate or the stock market? What should an investor today be doing?
