## Resource

More Americans are entering retirement without a spouse, children nearby, or a built-in support system. Aging alone presents unique financial, legal, healthcare, housing, and caregiving challenges that require proactive planning long before a crisis occurs. Richard Rosso & Devoda Owens discuss the essential steps solo agers should take to maintain independence, protect their finances, prepare for healthcare needs, and create a reliable support network.
