We are in our mid 70's, are very active, we have no major health conditions, he plays golf several times a week, we belong to several community organizations, cut our own grass, clean our own home, go out to dinner with our friends and are enjoying life. Our daughter wants us to move 500 miles away to be near her and live in a nursing home situation. We are not ready for this now. How do we know when that is our only option?
Few of us have the foresight to plan this way. Many don't have the resources. But, in a perfect world, where we want to be in charge of when/where/how? This is an excellent option.
