This episode takes a deep dive into the financial issues that are often overlooked but can have a monumental impact on your long-term wealth. In this episode, we're tackling a critical topic: how long-term care can pose a greater threat to your financial future than the fluctuations of the stock market.

While stock market volatility is a well-known concern for investors, long-term care needs are becoming an increasingly significant financial burden that many aren’t fully prepared for. We’ll explore why the cost of extended care—whether it's nursing home stays, assisted living, or in-home care—can dramatically erode your savings and impact your financial stability more profoundly than market downturns.
