The World Wide Web of financial gerontology

Article Abstract:

The World Wide Web is an excellent resource for information on financial gerontology to be used both by financial planners and their clients. Some of the material requires a fee while other sites are free and sites can be found through a general browser that will most likely find too much or through a structured gateway that helps organize other sites. Specific sites exist for some topics, such as Eldercare Web which includes almost every gerontology issue. The specific sites can be helpful but if they are not adequate, a general browser can expand the search to answer questions.
