I absolutely agree you should take care of your parents when they are old. Sometimes its easier said than done. How do you do this if there are huge financial obligations that come with it? Let me pose a scenario. Lets say healthcare costs / illness has bankrupted your parents financially. How far do you go with your finances to support your parents? Do you allow their illness to bankrupt you? Short of bankrupting you, how much would you give up and sacrifice for them?

oh scaredy, that is awful, i hope it never comes to that.

i’ve struggled with the long term care policies and when they should be bought. see link. i’m more worried about chronic sickness wiping out life savings than i am about having to put them into a home.

I’ve been supporting my parents for a long time. Hence I don’t own house yet.[/quote]

Dba, what other sacrifices have you had to make and how has supporting your parents altered your life and decisions beyond owning a home?

I’m starting to realize I may have to take care of my parents for the remainder of their lives and that makes me wonder if I can handle having children as well. Tough decisions
