What an important topic. Had not really thought of it and after doing a little research on it, received a major jolt. According to the AARP, many assisted living centers average about $2,500 a month and with more people living longer, how many years can someone afford to pay for that service?
Am hearing more and more about Americans moving to other countries to live out their retirements there with the thought being if they need assisted living care there, they may stretch their limited funds further. What's your opinion? Assisted living in the U.S.? In-law suites? Ex-pats? What do you think is the best option for people who may need extra care in their later years but who are on a limited income?
