Laverne:
I'd like to retire this year, but I still have a small mortgage. I've heard of reverse mortgages, but is there such a thing as "deferred payment" options, to discontinue making house payments? At my death, my heirs would pay off the balance plus any interest which might have accrued. I have no other debt.

Ricardo:
I've been ripped off by my moving company. I signed a "binding estimate" for $3666, which means a fixed price. After the movers uploaded our stuff in the truck on moving day, they said that we now owed $1500 more because they used more boxes than they had quoted. What can I do to avoid paying the extra money?

Jay:
My wife has a diamond ring valued (in our opinion) at about $160,000. I would like to know how to safely have the ring appraised and how to sell it. We want to use the money to help purchase a house. Should I send the ring to the GIA in California for appraisal?
