This recent article in the New York Times is titled “A New Way to Pay for Long-Term Care.” I really think there should be a question mark at the end of that title! The “new way” is selling your life insurance policy to a company.
A local support group member mentioned that this is what she was doing years ago; her husband had died, she has no children, and she thought this would be a good way to proceed.
I suggest you speak with a certified financial planner or someone qualified before you take action based upon this newspaper article!
