[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m doing all the things mentioned already.

I’m also having as much fun as possible b/c I’ve got 27 yrs before I’m the age my mother got Alzheimers. She did everything right but the gene is strong (her mother and sister died of Alz and her other sister has it now). [/quote]

I’m glad you are doing this. My mother was advised to do some things to enjoy her money but she rarely did. Now, a large chunk goes to the people who own the assisted living…

Well I'd prefer to be in a nice assisted living place should I need it/need memory care.  So I'd spend some and enjoy life now, but also plan for an extended stay in memory care for myself.  I have a relative who spent 6+ years in memory care and was just then moving to the more advanced part.  They still did puzzles and were active.  Died from getting the flu and not recovering (over 90).  But they were aware of where they were and their life for those 6 years, so I'm glad they were in a good facility [/quote]
