Why has nobody mentioned Ovaltine?
It comes in regular and chocolate flavor and I see it in regular grocery stores. My dad suddenly had to have the flavor from his childhood about 3 years ago. He still drinks a glass a day. |

There's the problem folks. Sure, the OP's dad should be able to do what he wants with his money, but there's a point where you have to watch; lots of seniors lose perspective and bankrupt themselves getting siding or roofing jobs they don't need, or applying to sweepstakes, or other such nonsense. Guess who ends up paying for the dialysis or Alzheimer's treatments or whatever, five years later? And it's only going to get worse, as history's most self absorbed generation goes into retirement. "Hey, it's our money, we're healthy now, why shouldn't we?" Because I'm going to have to pay the bill (again,) thankyouverymuch. The malt machine is probably no big deal, but don't pile on the OP for being concerned. Buying useless, overpriced crap is a warning sign. Greg Zywicki |

It's their money now, just wait until it's your money supporting them at the expense of your own retirement savings before passing judgement. nancy |

Being close to retirement, Ihave a hellova problem with my kids deciding what I
"need". I made my money and as long as I won't have to depend on them later (which I won't), I'll spend it as I please. I've got good kids, but sometimes wonder if there'd be the same interest if all of my estate were going to a charity and they wouldn't get any! bub |

Leave your estate to the deserving and needy, not the unappreciative and greedy. ---= BOYCOTT FRANCE (belgium) GERMANY--SPAIN =--- ---= Move UNITED NATIONS To Paris =--- ********* "Life would be devoid of all meaning were it without tribulation."
