This week Nicola and Di are back with the second episode of our monthly financial series, Over The Money Fence with Roger Montgomery. This series aims to help you take control of your finances with clarity and confidence. Roger is the Founder and Chairman of Montgomery Investment Management, has over 30 years’ investing experience and is a highly respected financial commentator featuring on various ABC programs, as well as his popular column in The Australian newspaper. He is also the author of best-selling investment guidebook Value.able. In this conversation we chat about the sandwich generation - women in their 50s and 60s who have the dual responsibility of caring for their elderly parents, and trying to support their adult children. We talk about the unique challenges this group faces when it comes to their finances and Roger has some calm and reassuring advice. Roger takes us through the difference between a financial adviser and a fund manager, and why it’s a good idea to always take your time and get a second opinion. He gives very practical advice for how you can find a good financial adviser to speak to about your finances (listed below), and why it’s in your interests to do so. Roger also talks about the importance of having conversations with your children and family before it’s too late, about your will and the plans you have for your money after you’re gone. Talk through the plans together and come to some agreements, so there aren’t any unnecessary disputes. As Roger says in this episode - it’s very dangerous to write in a will that you’ll leave everything to your children equally. Tune into the episode to find out why. Come and see Roger speak in person at our Over The Back Fence live event, happening on the 19th of June at the Woolly Bay Hotel in Sydney.

Julia Mayer, a clinical psychologist, shares her extensive caregiving journey spanning nine years, which involved caring for her father after her mother's unexpected passing and then supporting her husband Barry's mother, Jean, and stepfather, Steve. After her mother died during a heart surgery recovery, Julia and her siblings stepped in to care for their father, with her older brother taking the primary caregiver role while Julia provided weekend relief. Her father passed away about 15 months after her mother, and shortly after, they became involved in caring for Barry's parents, who were experiencing financial difficulties.Julia and Barry relocated Jean and Steve from Florida to an apartment near them, managing their care through the use of aides, a notebook system, and personal visits. Despite Jean's combative nature and strained relationship with Barry, Julia approached caregiving with compassion, patience, and a sense of humor. Her professional background as a psychologist helped her maintain emotional distance and communicate effectively, often serving as a mediator between Jean and Barry. She focused on preserving her family relationships through open communication and involving her children in the caregiving process.Throughout their caregiving experience, Julia and Barry collaborated closely, supporting each other emotionally and eventually turning their experiences into professional resources. They are set to publish "The Caregiver's Answer Book" with AARP in July 2025, providing comprehensive guidance for caregivers in various situations. Julia's approach to caregiving emphasizes three key principles: not taking the care recipient's suffering personally, maintaining empathy and compassion, and seeking support for oneself during the challenging caregiving journey.Social MediaFacebook: @Julia Mayer X: @JuliaLMayer23Instagram: Julmayer23LinkedIn: @Julie MayerWebsite: www.loveandmeaning.comAbout Julia:Julia L.

Mark and Janie discuss the challenges and benefits that come with having children, and maybe even grand children who need time and attention, and also having elderly parents who need attention and love as well. This situation falls on the age groups of 40-70 and they are called the “Sandwich Generation”

This week, Jen asked if she and her husband can own a long term care plan together and share the benefits with each other. She asked what happens if one person uses all the benefits. And what happens if neither of them need extended care services. She wants to know if it would be better to have two separate plans or share one and can they be each other's beneficiary. She also asked if this is the same as LTC Partnership.

This week, the Fishes are serving up wisdom, laughs, and a big ol' side of reality as they tackle what it means to be part of the Sandwich Generation — that squeezed-in-the-middle season of life where you're caring for aging parents while still raising (or launching) your own kids. Special guest and longtime friend Jane Mlenar joins the pod to share her candid, moving, and often hilarious experience navigating elder care, college kids in crisis, and the emotional load that comes with it all. Plus, we talk sourdough starters, Cuban sandwiches, and why jalapeños do not belong in your wine.

This week, we need to pay attention that LTC is not just a women's issue.  It used to be more focused on women because we live longer and are more likely to live alone when help is needed.   Today, with so many divorces, we have a lot of single men who will also be living alone when help is needed.  But men are the providers for their kids and familiues.  There is no time to consider that you won't be providing. LTC insurance helps you continue to provide for and protect your kids, even if you can no longer provide for yourself.  It's hard to think and talk about this today, but without a plan, it will be more difficult and costly to your kids later. Watch this 3 minute tear jerking video of a son showering and shaving his dad When we have help helping our parents, it doesn't mean we don't love them as much.  It means they loved us enough to prepare for this day and not overwhelm us.

Welcome to a very personal episode of my retirement journey — one that doesn't include beaches, books, and bucket lists. Not yet, anyway.This video dives into the emotional reality of being part of the "Sandwich Generation," but in my case, it's more like a triple-decker. I'm pulled in three directions: my six grandkids (ranging from 2 to 19), my aging parents — including a father with severe dementia — and my own retired husband who's eager to travel and explore. Sound familiar? You're not alone.In this heartfelt video, I share the guilt, the pressure, and the constant balancing act that defines this phase of life for so many of us. Retirement was supposed to be freedom — but for many, it's a season of caregiving, decision-making, and emotional overwhelm. I talk about the heartbreak of watching my father's decline, the worry of not being present enough for my grandkids, and the mental tug-of-war between duty and desire.It's raw, it's honest, and it's a conversation we don't have often enough. If you're navigating retirement while caring for aging parents and supporting younger generations, this video is for you. Whether you're feeling torn, tired, or just need to hear someone say, "me too," I hope this message brings you comfort, validation, and maybe even a little clarity.Don't forget to subscribe for more real talk about retirement, and share your story in the comments — let's build a supportive community together.Please join our Facebook group at www.facebook.com/groups/lifestartsatretirement

Join the conversation in our community at https://butjesusdrankwine.com/community.  In this honest and hope-filled conversation, Christy and Meade welcome Jill, a beloved member of the But Jesus Drank Wine leadership team, to share her powerful story of breaking free from alcohol and drawing closer to God. After ten years of trying to moderate her drinking, Jill was inspired by Christy's sobriety story in the summer of 2023 and made the bold decision to stop drinking entirely. What followed was a journey of spiritual renewal, mental clarity, and deeper intimacy with God. Jill opens up about the subtle ways alcohol had taken hold of her life—emotionally, physically, and spiritually. She shares how it consumed her mental energy, fueled guilt and shame, and ultimately stood in the way of the peace and purpose she longed for. Through surrender, community, and daily obedience, Jill experienced true freedom—and now encourages others to do the same. This conversation is especially meaningful for women navigating caregiving, motherhood, and the pressure to “keep it together.” Jill's courage to speak up and step out is a reminder that the cost of honesty is far outweighed by the gift of freedom.

We often hear from sons and daughters who want to buy LTC coveeage for a parent.  This could be to preserve a family home, to avoid Medicaid, or because they watched their parents care for their own parents for several years.  They don't want to go through that again. This works if the parent is still healthy enough to be approved by an insurance company. Different kinds of planning strategies are offered by different companies up to various age limits, and health questions differ as well. We can be pretty certain that Medicaid will be less accomodating in the future.  Learn more about that with resources from View current and projected costs of care where you live Estimate premiums for 6 year LTC plans Learn what your state Medicaid program lets you keep today Schedule a meeting to learn more

We all love sandwiches—especially co-host Cameron—but have you heard of the Sandwich Generation? Many Gen Xers find themselves squeezed between caring for aging parents while also raising their own children. In this episode, we're tackling how those in the middle can protect their retirement without getting toasted. First, we have some fun with iconic sandwiches in pop culture (because let's be honest, we all want to crack the Krabby Patty's secret formula). Then, we spread the knowledge on why prioritizing your own financial well-being is key, the importance of keeping communication open-faced, and why asking for help isn't something to relish—it's essential. Balancing financial responsibilities across generations isn't always a picnic, but with the right planning, you can wrap up a more secure future.

She's also co-producer and host of their podcast Untangling Alzheimer's and Dementia.   About Deb Bunt:   Deb took early retirement from her role in the youth offending service in London and moved to Suffolk seven years ago. As well as acquiring four grandchildren since she's been in Suffolk, she has also built an enduring friendship with Peter. This friendship Peter has given Deb a new lens through which to view her life.   Peter has enabled Deb to fulfil one of her life's ambitions – to be a published writer – and she now spends her time with Peter raising awareness of the condition or cycling insane distances around the county. Without question, Peter has enriched Deb's life.   About Tanya Ward Goodman:   Tanya Ward Goodman is the author of the award winning memoir, “Leaving Tinkertown.” Her essays and articles about travel, art, and the challenges and rewards of caregiving have appeared in numerous publications including The Washington Post, Orange County Register, Luxe, Premium Magazine, Atlas Obscura, and Variable West.   About Vicki Tapia:   Trained as an educator, Vicki Tapia has a proclivity for caring, spending over 30 years working as a Lactation Consultant teaching mothers and babies the art of breastfeeding.   When both her parents were diagnosed with dementia (Alzheimer's and Parkinson's-related) within a few months of each other, she took on the role of caregiver. As a coping mechanism, Vicki kept a journal detailing the many challenges her family faced along the way. Over time, her diary became a roadmap of sorts, morphing into the award-winning memoir Somebody Stole My Iron: A Family Memoir of Dementia.   About Dorothy Horne: Dorothy Horne is an author, speaker, and a former award-winning blogger for the Longview News-Journal. She was honored to be named a “Star Over Longview” in 2016. Dorothy is a member of AlzAuthors, “a global community of authors writing about Alzheimer's and dementia from personal experience to light the way for others." She has served on the board of the East Texas Alzheimer's Alliance and facilitated several Alzheimer's support groups. Dorothy is a retired first grade teacher. One of her greatest delights is being "Dot-Dot" to her four grandsons. She lives in East Texas and enjoys photography and traveling.   About Susan Landeis:   Susan is a member of the AlzAuthors management team and Board of Directors.

She had no aspirations to write a book, however when both parents were diagnosed on the same day with Alzheimer's, her journey as their caregiver poured out on paper through Alzheimer's Daughter. After the sadness of her parents decline, life brought her comfort and healing through the formation of AlzAuthors.com, cofounded with Marianne Sciucco and Vicki Tapia. What started as a one-month collaboration has now taken on a thriving life of its own for a decade.   About Carol Bradley Bursack:   Carol Bradley Bursack was a caregiver for an older neighbor and seven aging family members, all of whom are represented by first-person vignettes in Minding Our Elders: Caregivers Share Their Personal Stories. However, Carol wanted to do more than tell her own stories. She wanted to give other caregivers a chance to do the same.   About Christy Byrne Yates:   Christy is an expert in navigating the challenges and opportunities in life including living in the “Sandwich Generation” — that time period of raising children while also caring for an aging loved one. Her book, “Building a Legacy of Love: Thriving in the Sandwich Generation” recounts her journey and learning as a working mother of two who also managed the care of her parents, both of whom had some form of dementia. She incorporates meditation, mindfulness and other evidence based mind/body practices into her work to support growth, resilience, and a pathway to living life fully.

A growing number of Americans are joining the “sandwich generation,” which refers to people caring for younger children and aging parents at the same time — and it's often unpaid labor, on top of a separate full-time job. This all takes a toll on mental, physical and financial health. Then, speaking of sandwiches, burger chain Shake Shack looks to expand as more customers turn to fast casual dining.
