"The receptionist at the doctor’s office gives you a sheaf of papers to fill out. As the air-conditioning repairman leaves, he hands you a contract. In a spa’s waiting room, you’re asked to sign an agreement before your Swedish massage.
All this may be presented as routine paperwork — no big deal. But the consequences of filling out forms and signing your name could be very big indeed. You might be weakening your privacy, giving up legal rights or agreeing to prices and charges you never dreamed you’d have to pay. So what should you do before taking pen in hand? When can you decline to sign?" (AARP).
Join us this week as we discuss things you might not know you needed to know about signing your name on the dotted line, including what it means and what it doesn't mean depending on the words preceding it.
