[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Neither of those sites answer OP's question.
They are sales lead pages.

~$100k/yr if you need people to run part of your day.

They're links to nonprofits and probably more reliable than the Erickson communities and sites people are talking about.

OP, the general guideline used to be that you needed to be able to walk in to your CCRC when you started. Obvs that was ableist and I don't think places use that exact guideline any longer, but new residents are generally expected to be able to take care of their ADLs, which is to say they don't "need people to run part of [their] day."

My parents don't live around here, but they had a paid-off mortgage and basically rolled that money into a big buy-in fee and lower monthly costs. They used to do all their cleaning and maintenance themselves, and now someone else does it as part of the monthly charges. I don't know how their before-and-after costs are working out, but they have more money now than they did when they moved in 15 years ago.[/quote]
