Most families don’t plan for financial caregiving until they’re forced into it. In this episode, Chris Boyd talks with award‑winning financial journalist and author Beth Pinsker, whose book My Mother’s Money: A Guide to Financial Caregiving blends memoir and practical guidance.
They explore the moment “everything changed,” the early red flags families often miss, why even the “right” documents aren’t always enough, and how the cost of care becomes painfully real.
As Beth says: “Financial red flags come first… handling money is a complicated higher function.”
If you have aging parents — or expect to one day — this conversation is essential.
