It can be challenging to know how to act around someone who has dementia. We have sympathy for them, of course, but that’s not always helpful. We know it’s not their fault. What we don’t always know is how to respond when they’re repeating themselves or confusing the past with the present. W...

Heads up in case you haven't heard.... new Medicare cards are coming. Thankfully they have an ID number that is not the SSN.

GracePoint Wellness has a short article explaining the difference in Florida's Baker Act and Marchman Acts. Unfortunately, I see serious self-neglect way too often. http://gracepointwellness.org/site/article/52614-baker-act-and-marchman-act-backgrounder

When dealing with someone managing your money... know the difference between the Suitability and the Fiduciary Standards.
Consumers are often surprised when they discover that their adviser isn’t already required to put the best interests of his clients before his own. Yet unless you’re working with someone who adherers to the fiduciary standard, like a registered investment adviser, the advice you’re getting may be conflicted. Many providers of investment advice, including stockbrokers, are only subject to what is called the suitability standard. A broker subject to the suitability standard is free to recommend the investment that earns him the biggest commissions or a high-fee product offered by his employer, provided that it is broadly appropriate for your situation.
Advisers who are subject to the fiduciary standard, on the other hand, are legally required to put a client’s interest before their own, recommending only the best possible products for you. If you’re paying your adviser directly for their advice, either on an hourly fee basis or a percentage of your total assets they manage, there’s a good chance your adviser is a fiduciary.

Investors who receive conflicted advice can expect annual returns about 1% lower than they would otherwise.

Looking forward to hearing David Lillesand, Esq. speak in February about Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
SSI is one of the primary financial benefits available to elders and persons with disabilities. It is a federal program and run under federal rules, but Florida’s Medicaid program can have no rules stricter than the SSI rules.
The seminar will provide an overview of SSI's elder and disability eligibility rules, financial requirements, unusual Income definitions and other program peculiarities.
