Articles


The following articles are currently on this site:

There are many articles published elsewhere which are relevant to mature folk. We have selected some and make them available here. We are sure that there are plenty more that will be of value.  

 Note that we have copied the content of articles on web sites into Word and saved them as PDFs. 
This is so that those of us who prefer to read things on paper than on screens can do so, and also that the content exists in case the articles are deleted from their original URL. 
Some of them are by Kenny Meiring (contact: kenny.meiring@sfpwealth.co.za) who publishes weekly in the Daily Maverick. Others are by Helena Doilny, of LoveLegacyDignity.  You may find some other of their articles of relevance – see their websites.
