To: Be Careful

“they want your money as long as you are young enough with no pre-existing conditions.”

Yep. Why wouldn’t they? They probably lose money on Johnny-come-latelies who develop heath conditions in their 60s/70s and then all of a sudden want long term health insurance. Can’t say I blame them.

I have been paying in to a John Hancock long term care plan for many years. Cost is based on a statistics and cost model. The premiums go up each year as I age. I think mine pays $100/day. By the time I need it it will likely just cover part of what I need but it is something.
