Reader comment: Recently I came across an old column of yours regarding a sibling squabble. One sibling sought your advice regarding suing the other for reimbursement. I thought your advice was quite sound. I have been in a similar situation, ate my losses and moved on. I have also been to small claims court twice. Once to recover back rent from a tenant and on another occasion to recover funds paid for goods that were never delivered.

Q: My husband and I are in our mid-70s. I am trying to get our affairs in order so our sons will not have trouble when we do pass away. I have done two things as suggested by my retired attorney brother. First, we have gone through all of our accounts (banks, investing accounts, retirement plans and Treasury Direct account). We checked each account and set up a primary beneficiary and also contingent beneficiaries.

Pay Dirt is Slate’s money advice column. Have a question? Send it to Kristin and Ilyce here. (It’s anonymous!) Dear Pay Dirt, My mother co-owns a house with Rob, a friend of hers.

A10: Watch for excessive fees, escalation clauses, prepayment penalties, HOA restrictions, unclear maintenance responsibilities, and balloon payments. Always read the fine print before signing! #creditchat @experian @bestmoneymoves @ecredable #Legal #lawyer https://t.co/hPYcYZl7Y8
