Having been through the death of both my parents, my observation is that there is death industry engaged in a giant transfer of wealth from dying people to the medical establishment (who are already very wealthy).

Long term care insurance is a scam. Don't bother. They will find any excuse not to pay. You'll need to go to court or arbitration and the legal fees will eat up any settlement.

When it's my time, I plan to go expediently. No heroic measures, no experimental drug trials. I'd rather my kids inherit what I've worked for in my life than hospitals, doctors, or nursing homes.
