[quote=Anonymous]My mom just passed. Last two years of  assisted living then memory care was 300k, just fyi. While she was alive I mostly thought about whether she had enough for 10 years of high level memory care….did not really change anything, we lived moderately but not frugally and maxed retirement plus catch up without huge additional savings.

Now my personal net worth has more than doubled from 2 to maybe 5m and our family net worth now about 7m. Mostly it’s peace of mind: I can retire early, we can self insure ktc; maybe can afford to do some of the house projects; maybe don’t need to max retirement (but we are doing so anyway). spouse however talks about how much “we” have now and i am honestly stil Navigating whether/how to spend it on us/some upgrades as we have not been living large versus keeping separate because kids will get this inheritance separately/directly; dh will get “our/my” funds if I pass first.

So we lived as if nothing was coming but I feel a shift in mindset now that it’s happened.
