[quote=Anonymous]"The cost of nursing home care depends, in large part, upon the length of your stay. A 2010 study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society found that the median length of stay in a nursing home before death was 5 months. However, men died sooner than women and had a median length stay of about 3 months, compared to women at 8 months." (of course men stay in nursing homes for a shorter period of time b/c they typically have their wives to take care of them at home. Women tend to live longer, and therefore, their husbands are not living and not able to care for them at home.) I think it makes sense to just save for yourself.[/quote]
