“Herb Weiss knocks it out of the ballpark with his book Taking Charge (Volume 2) which continues addressing the journey of aging smart as well as gracefully.  He shows how to be an educated consumer when making decisions that affect your financial, emotional and overall life throughout your golden years. Throughout his book, Weiss takes charge of your future independence and aims at keeping you informed and healthy! He is a walking, talking resource and his book is a credit to his well-researched seasoned columns over the years.”
