[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one is actually talking about the hardest questions here. Potential social isolation can be solved. But if you are alone and become cognitively impaired, who will administer your finances? If you get physically sick, who will be your advocate in the medical system and potentially make decisions for you? Finding someone who will do these things and act in what is truly your best interest, with thought and care and competence, is the hard part, imo. Why is no one talking about this? [/quote] It was talked about early on. You can hire people. If you think that is risky I can assure you plenty of adult children do shady things that screw parents and siblings. Also, your family has a right to say "no" especially if they aren't close to you or feel you suddenly got close to them for favors.[/quote]
