Over 50s Money Saving

A question about : Solicitor slow over probate

I lost both my parents last year, Dad in July, and Mum in September.

My husband is joint executor with their solicitor.

There were no inheritance tax complications over Dad's will, as he left everything to Mum.

A question about : To put a property in "Trust."

Being 60 years of age now I know there's going to come a time when I'll need looking after. I don't want to burden my children so I fully intend going into a care home. If a time comes that I have difficulty paying for my care, I don't want my home sold to pay for it - my home is my childrens inheritance.
My question is :
How do I put my property in trust for them, so its not taken away from me or my children to pay for my care ?

A question about : Discounts for over 50s/60s

Hi all

I have had a quick look to see if this has been posted before but cannot find it. Apologies if it has.

I went into my local Boots today and picked up a Healthclub and more leaflet, which when you register is giving up to Ј100 in money off vouchers to everyone, but if you are over 60 you can get a 10% discount on Boots brand products.

Sorry dont know how to post links but you can register online at

A question about : house deeds storage

Does anyone know where I can find a straight forward comparison of fees charged by banks and building societies for storage of house deeds please?

A question about : Putting home into family trust to avoid nursing home fees

I'm afraid I'm not prepared to lose my only asset, my home, to pay nursing home fees so I'm considering putting it into a family trust with my children as the beneficiaries.

Does anyone have experience of this and the pitfalls?

We're already likely to lose my mother's home for this reason (her fees are Ј46,000 a year) and if there is a legal way of making sure our children inherit all we have worked so hard for over the years then we will take it.

A question about : Grants for new boiler

Im trying to find info for someone regarding grants for a new boiler, anyone had any experiences about the grants

A question about : GLUCOSAMINE. Save Ј60 a Year

If like me you have found that taking GLUCOSAMINE (and remember 1500 mg is recommended by doctors as the daily dose) cures knee and other joint problems and would like an inexpensive source of supply, the answer lies here.

A question about : Now I'm 50 what can I get free or discounts on

There must be some benefits to being 50, cos I still feel like a teenager, what are they?
