How will you feel when they put you in a home, visit you twice a year, all while waiting for you to die so they can collect inheritance?Not being negative but this will be 95% of your futures if you become unable to look after yourself before death.Seeing it now all around me from kids who always said their parents would never go in a home, ill look after them, blah blah blah.When reality hits that they have to give up drinking with buddies, vacations etc it doesnt happen.

Exactly. My plan is to carry on living a vacuous feckless lifestyle, move to Medellin and then die in seedy/shameful circumstances in my mid fifties.

The majority of people who are having kids today will not have any inheritance for the kids to collect. 3 main reasons...
1. The cost of living is rising much faster than peoples wages are.
2. Dollar devaluation (i.e. inflation). The dollars you earn/save now will not have the same purchasing power in the future.
3. The nursing home takes all the cash and liquefies your assets before the Medicare/Medicaid kicks in.

your genetics live on in your children
childless people have failed to pass on their dna
its the ultimate in beta behaviour
in the wild only the weak and retarded dont get to mate
same for humans

If they put you in a home they won't have any inheritance left the government will take the house you worked all your life to pay for and any savings to pay for your care while the fucker in the bed next to you who never worked and had his rent paid with benefits his entire life gets the same care as you for free.

Beta behaviour v a life of shopping in Aldi and getting raped by the CSA.
I'll take the beta option.

I would never put either of my parents in a home.I was brought up to be that way and I bring my kids up the same way.Its how you raise your kids in the end and most people nowadays don't raise their kids.

Hopefully your kids are fully grown by the time your parents are old and incapacitated or else you won't have the time to care for your parents. It gets overwhelming very quickly. Having a private nurse/caregiver come to their home a few times a week costs about $3000-5000 per month.

Yep. The "beta" option is much more inexpensive and stress free.
IMO, the beta guy is the guy walking around the mall, pushing a baby stroller while slinging a large diaper bag over his shoulder.

The cost for my grandmother's retirment care center was near $90,000 per year. The only way to pay for this was selling her home and bleeding her accounts.

If you can't afford $3000- $5000 per month to help the people that raised you than they would most likely be too ashamed to even want your help.

I hear its pretty hedonistic in those old folks homes though. :P

re: point #3. This happens, but if you are able to plan and rid yourself of your assets for five years prior, you can avoid this, at least in my state.
But I do know people who are getting hammered on these costs because of it.

Kai and Jay won't have that "problem " or anyone to put them in a home later in life ...They won't have anything to look for on the weekends grandkids,dinners, etc ...
Eventually They will be found dead in their homes/apartments days after their passing surrounded by trophies, pictures on the walls of themselves oiled up in their glory days " and the awful smell of dead unattended flesh of their dead bodies ........
WoooSHHHHHHHHHH S A D

You took the words out of my mouth. I'll take care of my folks, build an in law suite or garage apartment if I have to. I couldn't imagine just rolling my parents away. I will say though, I'll have a nurse to help. I've got no desire to change my folks diapers.

These are good intentions, but they can reach levels where 24 hour care is needed, and a good nursing home is better for all.

i go with bigmc on this one.

Not sure if OP is serious, but here is my serious answer:
you don't have children for yourself unless you're a complete fool, you have children because
- as an egoistic prick, you think you have some valuable knowledge/values/principles/beliefs you want to pass down to humanity and/or
- you want to give love to someone without even thinking about being paid back and/or
- you want to better understand yourself, as a human being, and to better understand your parents.
Your kids are not your property, neither are they an investment, nor are they here to take care of you. See it as some philosophical trip with its part of laughs and a ton of stress. Like any other philosophical trip of some sort.
wow I wrote some pretty dense shit right there, here some boobies:

That's not true. There is a 5 year grace period. If you put the rights to the house to your kids then they can't touch the home, as long as parents signed over the house 5 years before entering the nursing home. This is how it works in the US.
-
its probably fortunate that some of the people in this thread
arent going to pass their genes on

Damn. Story is almost exactly the same for me, although different parent and illness.
I plan to go out on a big high as soon as old age becomes a pain for me

Over here We had a 7 year grace period which was changed in 2014 so now it dosent matter how long ago they signed it over now they can still take it, can't sell you it on paper either as they want to see proof of payment for sale at full market value along with regular rent payments from the parent/parents still living in the house.
Makes you question working all your life, paying tax and owning a home if it can be taken from you should you fall too ill to care for yourself, never mind your 40+ years of tax contributions they will rape your assets to give you the same care as someone who claimed dole, housing benefit the works his whole life taking out of the system never paying in.
It's disgusting

Estate planning is key. A home can be protected in an irrevocable trust vested according to state guidelines. This is a good start.

The last instance, which is correct, should inspire one's children to take care of their aging parents themselves.

Mentally and physically disabled people do mate. Obviously the weak mate too. Proof of this is all around us.

I would not do this I love my dad but he already lived his life and I am not going to waste my life being a caregiver to him I need to live my life, that is what nurses are for.

Sad but TRUE.
-

Or, as stated, square their finances in advance (irrevocable trusts, etc) so that they qualify for state and federal aid.
Often, at times, taking care of an elderly parent is a full time task and requires expertise, and it's not in the best interest of either party for them to be cared for by the kids.

Us bodybuilders can relax over this... None of us are living much past 70 anyway

Without a doubt, you echo the feelings of many living in the U.S. -Not so much in the rest of the world when taking care of one's parents is expected and provided.
You say you love your dad, which is good. If you knew that he was living in a situation where he was suffering abuse or one that was making daily life for him unbearable, would you still believe caring for him a waste of your time?
BTW, someone who is alive is still living their life, no matter how deplorable it becomes.

They are all small and useless to us now... ;D

My mom was a very independent woman and died of cancer last Nov.
She lived alone in the same apt for many years and considered it home.
When I was informed her death was near, my wife and I moved in with her for the last 2 weeks.
Shortly after our arrival , I knelt down and told her ;
" I'm here now and you're NOT going anywhere."
She smiled , kissed me on the forehead and replied ; " Thank you son."

There are risks associated with this too. Your child could die and your assets would pass on to his/her spouse, or your child is sued, or your child's evil spouse talks him/her into stealing your assets. You could lose it all either way.

The same is true for Oregon. Isn't it actually federal tax law? I believe a living trust works too.

-
I do not expect my kids to take care of me when I get older. I do not know anyone who was placed in a nursing home by their kids. It seems that around here anyway, most people in a nursing home had no one to take care of them so they went into a nursing home.

My mom suffers from Alzheimer's. She has 24/7 care from three different aides. Lives in a pricey independent living condo. Fortunately my step father is good for something.

If you are living in poverty and cant afford a care giver and your dad is also poor ( not sure why you both would be such losers ) but in a case like that I would take care of him but I can afford a care giver so I would let them do their job while I live my life and I would visit from time to time.

They're all positive ???

It's even more beta behaviour if you stay involved and look after your kids.
my daddy got my mama pregnant with me and then bolted never to be seen again
mom told me that he then married some rich jewess would paid for his Ph.D. studies then he divorced her once he finished and he got cash from her for the divorce settlement

Aldi is full of dirty poors who block up both sides of the road waiting for a parking space, just so they can get some cheap own brand monster munch and sun dried tomatoes.

Like your mom, my wife was very independent. After a very long illness, she died at home surrounded by her loving family.
I know that was tough, but you did get to spend most of your formative years together ,building a "life".
-
That is how a good child would do it.
Thanks.
She saw me into this world and gave me an incredible childhood.
Seeing that she spent her last days in peace and comfort was the least I could do.
-
land, own land
Nope, ANY asset (including any/all real estate) with a paper trail MUST be liquidated and given to the nursing home before any government program kicks in. Any asset liquidated the prior 5 years can be clawed back by the nursing home. It's a racket... get it?
-
You speak from experience bro? Serious question.
Yes, I've already seen all of this stuff happen. My great aunt is 100 and my grandmother is 97. They are both in the same nursing home.

My dad is an alpha male with a nice pension, he doesn't even need my help.
I'm also an alpha male that can and will take care of them.
