Estimated cost for Health Care after age 65 ?
Try $285,000 per couple in Assets needed in 2020.
- It is estimated that the average couple will need $285,000 in today’s dollars for Medical Expenses in Retirement.
- That $ 285,000 does not even include Long Term Care and Home Health Care.
- Health Care costs continue to be one of the largest expenses in Retirement, and rising annually.
- Medicare increasingly covers less, and does not cover Long Term Care, nor Home Health Care.
- We are living longer, which means careful planning is required. See : http://longevity.stanford.edu/
Like most Americans, Health Care is expected to be one of your largest expenses in Retirement.
Aging is inevitable, and expensive.
I am age 61, and in the same boat as you.
But unlike prior generations, you probably won’t have Employer or Union-sponsored retiree health insurance once you retire.
Those Good Ole’ Days are gone.
Now, Health Insurance has become Americans’ most worrisome issue.
Please see the “ Living Longer, Paying More, Getting Less ” article in my DROP Library about how Medicare will increasingly cost more, and cover less.
FACT : Health Care costs will likely consume a large portion of your Retirement Budget.
