The Fearful Side of Being a Baby Boomer


Read this article if you are 40 or over and be afraid, be very, very afraid....

are you thinking of buying a long-term care policy to help you live in assisted living later on when you can't take care of yourself???
well think again!! just because you have a policy doesn't mean it will pay!
Beware....you can live too long....
this is another excuse to "gather ye rosebuds while ye may" and not worry about how long you live but the amount of life in your years!!!

Here's an interesting reply to this article that should be of interest to most:
