surprisingly, i have to disagree with 'Hub. it's one thing to arrange for them to get foodstamps, to divert creditor calls from them to you, or to have power of attorney in case something were to happen to them. but to have them declared incompetent?!? first, i don't see why that would help them with the debts. but more importantly, they are obviously competent and even bringing up such an idea at this age would make them feel less-than, which is the last thing you want to do to your own parents. let them take care of their affairs as long as they can and let them be the independent people that they are. declaring them incompetent would ruin them emotionally and probably kill them very quickly.
so don't do it.
everything else, i agree with.
