Ep 72: www.aplan2age.org is HERE!!!!!

11/27/2024

Folks, I'm excited, and I'll tell you why. For 15 plus years, and some of you guys have heard me talk about this, I've wanted something to make this aging journey easier. I tell people all the time it'll never be easy, but you can make it easier. My wife and I didn't do that. We didn't get ahead of it. We didn't do that 4 letter word called "PLAN". We fudged our way through for 14 years for all four parents, with two little kids- a sandwich generation classic.

So we started talking about this, and we've been talking about this with my business partner, Peter Ross, who's the Co-Founder and CEO of Senior Helpers, one of the largest in home care companies in the country. He and I started talking 9-10 months ago now, and we have created it and it's ready for public consumption- A Plan to Age. You can find it at www.aplan2age.org.

Ep 70: Cost of Care

Good morning, folks, today I want to have a conversation about that little tiny word cost, the “Cost of Care”, that we've talked about a lot, where are? Two days after a an election, and where are we in in reality? Care is expensive.

We talk about that all the time. It's not going to get any cheaper. As in-home care companies, and as community care companies have the cost of doing business, all the expenses they have (paying their caregivers, etcetera, etcetera), we're just going to see the cost going up. So whether you want to bring someone in to take care of an older loved one in their home, or whether that older loved one is going to move, based on need, to an assisted living or memory care, it's just going to get more expensive.

Obviously, and some of you may know this, if the Vice President had won, which she obviously did not, but she was talking about utilizing Medicare to help pay for the cost of care. So what does that mean?
