Otto Brenner's practical guide addresses the financial pressures facing the sandwich generation-adults simultaneously funding their children's education and supporting aging parents. Through real client stories like Elena, drowning in $200,000 of Parent PLUS loans at age fifty-one, and Miriam, confronting her father's hidden financial vulnerabilities, Brenner reveals how this generation often sacrifices their own retirement security. This book teaches the oxygen mask principle: protecting your financial future first isn't selfish-it's the foundation that enables you to help both your children and parents. Brenner combines financial strategy with emotional intelligence, offering concrete solutions for budgeting, loan management, difficult family conversations, and prioritization when resources are limited.
