[quote=Anonymous]I never even considered an inheritance until my dad got sick. We saved aggressively in our 403b/457 plans. We have about $2m. Then my dad got sick and passed quickly. He had worked his entire life. Retired at 73 and died at 78. I was his only heir, since my brother passed away a couple of years before him. The inheritance doubled our money. Half of which was in IRA accounts. We worked for a couple of more years, until our youngest was out of high school and then retired. We are in year 4 of trying to empty the IRA. We will live on that money, until I can draw on my pension and access our retirement accounts. My mom is aging. She has about the same amount of money as my dad. She also has long-term care insurance to help offset the expense of assisted living. I am not counting on that money, but I also know that I will probably get something. I will probably set that money aside for our daughters.[/quote]
