If this doesn't feel good, you don't have to do it

I wish more exercise instructors would say this. I go to the senior center each Wednesday to do Senior stretch sitting in a chair.

The book of unknown Americans (book), by Cristina Henriquez. I liked it, although I had to skim near the end because this book was only a two week loan. An immigrant family comes (legally) from Mexico. (They gloss over it like it was so simple). They end up in Delaware in an area with other immigrants. They have a special needs daughter who becomes friendly with a young man from a Panamanian family. Deals with the difficulties of finding and keeping jobs and other challenges for people new to the US.

The Charles Schwab guide to finances after fifty (book), by Carrie Schwab-Pomerantz. I didn't read it all, but I did learn a few useful things such as when taking your minimum distributions at age 70 and 1/2, you have to do it with each account. Sounds kind of complicated. I am going to copy page 2 which tells you how to determine your net worth.
