[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad has mm of $$ and still ended up blowing through all his savings because he lived so long. It costs $200k a year to live at that age independently in a tristate area. And that’s if nothing goes wrong. This is an impossible situation for the elderly of this country. And their children![/quote] People shouldn't live this long. We need to stop allowing extreme life saving measures after a certain age.[/quote] Sometimes people live past 90 with no life saving anything. Btdt with my dh's grandparents. It is very tough bc the person is extremely diminished in abilities, needs a ton of help, but none of the help is medical.[/quote] That's incredibly rare. No medications at all? No doctor's visits, ever?[/quote]
