The Cost No One Plans For

Billie and Mark Elliott tackle one of the largest and least-planned-for costs in retirement: health care and long-term care. They walk through why these expenses catch people off guard, why relying on Medicare alone leaves gaps, and how newer approaches to long-term-care planning differ from the traditional "use it or lose it" policies people remember. The throughline is the same as the rest of the series, building a plan that holds up regardless of what happens, rather than hoping the need never comes.
