Long-Term Care: The Cost That Can Derail Retirement
Thursday, 12 March, 2026
Long-term care is one of the biggest financial risks retirees face... yet it's rarely discussed until a crisis happens. In this podcast hosted by Nic Daniels, he explains what long-term care actually is, why it can be so expensive, and the common misconceptions surrounding who pays for it. Many retirees assume Medicare will cover these costs, but in reality most long-term care expenses must be paid out of pocket unless someone qualifies for Medicaid after depleting much of their assets. Nic walks through the different ways families approach this challenge, including self-funding care, traditional long-term care insurance, and newer hybrid strategies that combine life insurance with long-term care benefits. Plus, why timing matters when exploring insurance options and why many people wait until it's too late. Most importantly, this episode highlights the family and emotional considerations behind long-term care planning—because without a plan, the burden often falls on spouses or adult children.
