[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad just volunteered that they’re spending 25k/month these days. That pays for the continuing care facility they’re in, with my dad in independent living and my mother in skilled nursing (I think that’s what it’s called—she’s mostly incapacitated), as well as private CNAs 4-6 hours/day when my dad is not with her. I feel like we have saved well for retirement, but I will not have enough to pay 300k/year based on interest/pension alone; we would have to spend down the principal. My husband is planning to switch jobs in his 60s to something much more fulfilling and much less stressful well-paying. I really want him to do this, but I am sick to my stomach at this price tag. [/quote] Yup. This is typical.[/quote]
