Product Description
Until recently, there were only two main ways you could get cash from your home: sell it or borrow against it and make monthly loan repayments. Reverse mortgages offer a third way of getting money from your home. If you are a homeowner, age 62 and older, you are eligible to apply for a reverse mortgage loan that converts your home equity into a tax-free income.

With The Complete Guide to Reverse Mortgages, you'll learn all you need to know to earn the supplemental income you need, without worrying about:

• Having to sell your home
• Give up your title
• Or take on a new monthly mortgage payment.

This invaluable guide explains everything you need to know about reverse mortgages and how to use them to your advantage. With practicing attorneys Tyler Kraemer and Tammy Kraemer leading the way, you will learn the step-by-step process to getting a reverse mortgage and making the best of your retirement!

Review of The Everything Thai Cookbook: From Pad Thai to Lemongrass Chicken Skewers--300 Tasty, Tempting Thai Dishes You Can Make at Home (Everything Series) (Paperback)

Purchased this book with high hopes based on other reviews. I was very disappointed in the fact that there are NO PICTURES at all. I am a visual person, and enjoy seeing pictures of dishes; especially ones that can be a bit complex. The substitutions of Thai ingredients completely change the dish. Ginger is not the same flavor as Galangal....I could go on and on. The authentic ingredients are not too difficult to find these days. You can order online or just go to a specialty Market. It IS worth the trip to get the right stuff to cook these dishes with. If you like more authentic books with pictures, pass on this one. Try templeofthai.com for a great website and supplier.
