Long‑term care is one of the most overlooked risks in retirement planning—and one of the most expensive. In this episode, Lucas Kalin breaks down why many families are unprepared for chronic conditions like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, and why Medicare alone isn’t a solution. The discussion covers common misconceptions, the impact of asset spend‑down, and why delaying these conversations can limit future options. You’ll also hear why planning early matters, how long‑term care affects legacy goals, and the emotional toll that comes with navigating these decisions without a plan.
