Are financial funds available for caregivers?

mhmarfil Mar 2011
As most of us here knows... if there is a financial fund available for caregivers, it's always very little and not enough. Lucky for those with elderly whose wealth is as big as the top names on the list of Forbes magazine's 1,000 richest persons in the world. But for now, my own piece of advice is if there is any, it's almost always certain it will not be enough. Especially if the elderly lives for more than 20-40 years surely whatever fund is around for you as the caregiver will be depleted faster than a speeding train! Wish you lots of persistence, creativity and resourcefulness in trying to mine whatever funds you can come up just to finance yourself, and the people you will be caring for. Brace yourself for tough times ahead unless of course your folks belong to the Forbes list.
