Warning Signs That Your Parents Need Financial Help Talking about your finances is never easy. Talking to your parents about their finances before or during their retirement can be just as difficult. This is the situation many loved ones and caregivers may find themselves in at some point as their parents get older and they need their help managing their finances. Most importantly, parents should feel their children are there to help, no matter what, and feel safe talking about their finances openly.  If children feel they would have a hard time talking to their parents about their retirement planning and the financial stability of their plans, here are a few warning signs to watch out for: Ask Them About Their Health Firstly, children should gauge their parent's health for any signs th...

The Villages Florida is About More than Just Golf Jimmy Roberts and the Golf Channel scored a hole in one Monday night with their segment on The Villages.  They came to do a special about the 567 holes of golf available within The Villages itself--more than any other community or facility in the world with roughly 2.9 million tee times in the past year.  They quickly found out that “Golf is the lifeblood here, but The Villages is more than 18 holes, a nap, and an early bird dinner.” This is not how your parents viewed their golden years, but today's retiree is not interested in sitting around the house catching reruns on the television.  There are more than 50,000 golf carts in The Villages.  It is a different way of living, and it is on the move.  If golf is not your bag, what about pi...

Transportation from Orlando International Airport to The Villages FL Working with buyers in The Villages FL area, I am often asked about Transportation from Orlando International Airport to The Villages FL.  From personal experience, I find Village Airport Van to be a terrific choice, and they are very reasonably priced. I have recommended Village Airport Van to many clients who have asked about Transportation from Orlando International Airport to The Villages FL, but today I got a mailer (with a nice Magnet for my Refrigerator!), and I found out some additional information.  On this mailer it mentions "Still ONLY $35 Per Person," which is the reason that I decided to stop making the 130 mile round trip (and pay tolls on top of that) every time someone comes to town.  But the mailer als...

"Above Par for Animals" Golf Ball Drop from REMAX Balloon Big Success Today was the second annual "Above Par for Animals" Golf Ball Drop from the REMAX Balloon, and we are happy to report that it was a big success.  The festivities started this morning at 10 A.M. at George Nahas Chevrolet in The Villages.   The REMAX Balloon was a little late in arriving due to traffic coming from an early morning engagement (who ever heard of a hot air balloon getting stuck in traffic?), but there were plenty of other things going on in the meantime.   During the entire festivities, lunch was being served by our friends at Landmark Mortgage.  That was a warm job on a day like today (85 for the high), but they kept at it the whole time (and did an excellent job too!).  A silent auction was going on all ...
