The New York Times Publishes a Retirement Section
This weekend’s New York Times features a special section on retirement. The section, which can be found online as well as in print, features articles on Medicare, job hunting, 401Ks, and even reverse mortgages. However, it is frustrating that the piece on reverse mortgages is very vague and generic. The piece talks about reverse mortgages as a last resort, primarily for those who do not want to leave the home to their heirs. But this is the opposite of what some other media pieces have talked about in recent months, where a reverse mortgage was used as an estate planning tool in order to help borrowers pass on larger amounts to their heirs by avoiding the estate tax.
Nonetheless, with the exception of the vague reverse mortgage information, many other articles within the section may be useful to our readers.
