[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no idea on your mom's lifestyle prior to entering memory care...but I would imagine that my own expenses just to exist as a single person and have a decent lifestyle (restaurant meals several times per month, travel, rent/mortgage/home maintenance, utilities, groceries, etc.) would probably be like $6,500/month. I don't know if $139k per year is a nice facility or not...but I guess I look at this as I am paying an additional $50k per year for the memory care facility vs. my expenses on my own. I don't know if people think that's excessive or not...but it seems reasonable to me.[/quote] NP. When it is even more difficult is when there is a spouse that is fine and still living in their home. Then the base expense isn't eliminated, but the memory care and potential aides are added. Eldercare if needed is a huge problem for many people.[/quote]
