In present time financial abuse to elderly is one of the most common problems around the world. Singapore is not untouched with this problem and many people in Singapore try to find best way to protect their elderly from financial abuse. Thankfully there are some simple tips on protecting elderly from financial abuse. In case you are also looking for these tips so you can protect your elderly from any kind of financial abuse, then just keep reading and you will find answers for that.
Many times your presence alone can save your parents from financial abuse. If you are there in their life, then it will be much easier for you to find more about their life and they will also take your suggestion and opinion before investing their money at any place. Some people can also claim that they do not get chance to visit their elderly parent due to busy work life or other issues. Well, if you live in Singapore, then things should not be very much complicated for you because it is not so big that you need several hours to visit them. You can visit them on weekends, you can have dinner with them and you can come back to your home in morning or same day in evening. On dinner you can have talk about all the things including financial matter and you can help them stay away from any kind of frauds.
Being present in your elderly parents life is one thing, but if you don’t give them advise then they may fall in the trap of financial abuse. You shall give them a freedom to invest or use their money as they like, but you shall give your advice to them. If you feel there is a good investment option where elderly could get better return without chance of losing their money, then make sure you advise this to them. Also, when you give this suggestion, make sure it is only suggestive and you try not to enforce your decision on them. If you would do this, then your enforced suggestion would keep them away from that option. Instead of that you should simply say to your elderly that when they think about investment then they should keep that option as well in their mind or they should talk to expert about it. This kind of suggestion will help them take much better decision and they will stay away from financial abuse.
To keep your elderly parents away from any kind of financial abuse, it is very important that you keep yourself updated with latest news related to this subject. If you get to know that there are some frauds there that target elderly people, then get every possible information about that and inform your parents about it. You don’t have to give them a lot of instruction, but you only need to tell them that this financial abuse is targeting old people, so please be aware about it. Once you will do this, then they would take things very seriously and they would do complete research before the trust anyone for their investment. Also, you should give this information to authorities as well so they can get into the bottom of this and they can get control on it as well.
If you hope to get money from your elderly, then you are making the biggest mistake for same. In such situation they would not trust you and even if you will give them the right advise the would not buy it. Instead of that they would prefer to trust some unknown person and that unknown person can be a fraud. So, if you want to keep your parents away from financial abuse, then don’t keep an eye on their money. Instead of that you give your money to them if possible. It will build a trust between you and them and if they would take any financial decision then they would take your opinion for that. Needles to say, when they would take a financial advise from you, then you will always keep them away from any kind of financial abuse. So, make sure you keep this thing in your mind to avoid any complication.
Thankfully there are plenty of technologies and extra help available in the present time that can keep your elderly parents away from any kind of financial abuse. If your parents trust you, then you can ask them to use technologies and third party agencies that does financial monitoring for elderly people. These financial monitoring agencies know more about the financial abuse then anyone else and they also know how to deal with such situation. Also, if your elderly parents make any investment that could give a bad result to them, of if they are falling in the trap of some financial abuser for older people, then these agencies would keep them away from such complications. So, that is also an assurance that if they would get introduced with such scams, then they would have right help to deal with such situation.
In addition to this it is also very important that you ask your parents to trust only on a licensed agency instead of trusting any individual. A licensed agency in Singapore need to fulfil many requirements that makes the agency more trustworthy for financial transactions. Other than this, you should also help the security agencies and other departments to deal with any kind of fraud. If you notice even a minor fraud, then you should not ignore it in any ways. You should directly report the issue to authorities and you should help them as much as possible. It will help them prevent a fraud before it happen and it will not only prevent your elderly, but that may help the entire society as well. So, make sure you consider this as your social responsibility to reduce such fraud issues in nay condition.

Nigel Farage says he backs Donald Trump “100 per cent” after the US President demanded Nato allies “pay up”.
The Republican was speaking from Nato’s headquarters in Brussels, which was formally opened today (Thursday).
He said “massive amounts of money” were owed as he criticised some nation states for not paying their fair share of defence spending.
He told listeners: “What was delicious was the faces of other leader as Trump is saying ‘it’s not good enough and basically you owe us massive amounts of money’.
“If you’re in a club and it is a mutual defence pact as Nato has been for all these years and if you want it to develop to perhaps work together to deal with radical jihadi terrorism then people have got to pay.”
Rachel | Auburn High School Class of 2019 | Auburn Senior Portraits | Lauren Beesley Photography — Lauren Beesley Photography
A more in depth look at sessions with Lauren Beesley Photography, behind the scenes looks and extra content from your friendly neighborhood photographer.
I’m so behind on blogging, you guys. It’s not even funny. There are so many awesome senior photo sessions that happen all the time and I get so wrapped up in editing and delivering photos that blogging becomes secondary - which is such a shame! Because beautiful seniors and sessions like Rachel’s should 100% be shared!
I had the honor several years ago to take Rachel’s older sister’s senior photos, way back when I was still practicing my photography and editing skills. But like Rachel, her sister Becca is also super photogenic and was the perfect model, and was one of the early sessions that helped me realize that I love senior portraits!! Here’s a bonus collage from Becca’s session just for fun :)
Back to Rachel now! Rachel is a really cool person. On the outside, it’s immediately obvious that she has a really great personal style, one that doesn’t quite fit one mold, and no one else really does it quite the same way. It’s fun, it’s colorful, it’s vintage, it’s somehow dressed up and casual all at once, and I love it. She also has some really fantastic makeup skills, so just in case you were wondering who the artist was for this session…it was all Rachel!
Rachel also has a really great sense of humor. I asked her what kinds of things she might like to include in her session (expecting answers similar to musical instruments, or something representing a hobby or achievement), and Rachel’s immediate response was both surprising and absolutely wonderful. “I really love chicken nuggets.” And that’s when I realized that Rachel may be the coolest person I know.
She also said she loved her cats. And her boyfriend Dirk. The cats couldn’t come with us to the park, but Dirk did!!
This was Rachel’s homecoming dress last year - so pretty! It contrasted so well with the golden hour lighting we had for her session.
Here’s a look at Rachel’s session in video!! So much fun. Glad to have Rachel on my Class of 2019 Senior Rep Team this year!
