  3. L.A. arts endowments fell in 2011-12, but things are looking up

    The public's window into nonprofit arts groups&rsquo; financial condition is a time-lapse look. The numbers typically don&rsquo;t become available until many months after an organization has closed the books on a fiscal year.

  4. Mortgage underwriting rules eased for seniors with assets

    WASHINGTON &mdash; Here's a heads-up for the growing ranks of seniors whose post-retirement monthly incomes aren't sufficient to qualify for a mortgage under today's tough underwriting standards: Thanks to a rule change by the largest players in the home loan business, you may be able to use imputed income from your 401(k), IRA and other retirement assets to qualify for the loan you want.

  5. Time to wake from the American Dream and face retirement reality

    The retirement plans of more and more Americans are about as connected to reality as Grimm&rsquo;s Fairy Tales. Grim is exactly what it is going to be for these folks when, in their 70s, their 401(k)s have petered out, they have no pensions and no income except what they get from the tottering Social Security system.

  7. Elderly couple's sons pressuring them to get a reverse mortgage

    <strong>Dear Liz:</strong> I try to watch out for my neighbors, a married couple in their early 90s. Two of their three sons, who are both in their 60s, want them to get a reverse mortgage. The couple's house is paid off as well as their cars. They pay all their monthly bills with Social Security and his pension. They have a living trust as well. Neither I nor the couple see any reason or upside but the sons are pressuring. Any input?

  8. Use windfall to save for retirement before paring student debt

    <strong>Dear Liz:</strong> What would you suggest that someone do with $20,000 if the someone is closer to 40 than 30, single, with $100,000 of student loan debt and a $250,000 mortgage? My salary is around $100,000 a year. I have an emergency fund equal to six months of expenses and I make an annual IRA contribution since my employer doesn't offer a 401(k) plan. Should I accelerate my student loan payments, since the interest isn't tax deductible for me because my income is too high? Or should I invest instead? If I invest, should I put it all in a total market stock index fund or is that too risky?
