Join Annalee as she welcomes Bob Mauterstock, Co-President of Plan4LifeNow. They will discuss how financial advisors and wealth managers can address the needs of their aging clientele and the adult children who may be family caregivers. A Genworth Beyond Dollars 2018 study found that 46% of family caregivers had to work fewer hours, 30% of family caregivers missed important career opportunities, 63% of family caregivers are paying for their loved one's care out of their own funds and 42% of family caregivers reduce their contributions to their own savings/retirement.
Senior self-neglect has always been a concern but with the "silver tsunami" we have with such an aging nation, adult children are often in denial or just unaware how well their parents are actually doing. Corporate America is not as family friendly as it was in the past and adult children are torn between competing responsibilities--their own families, their career, their health, and aging loved ones. With families spread across the globe, aging loved ones are often left to fend for themselves and do the best they can often, they struggle daily with remembering to take their medications, being able to physically care for themselves properly, being unsafe drivers, not paying their bills on time, letting insurance policies and other bills lapse. It's time for families to learn about aging issues and why developing an aging plan and having frequent family meetings and care oversight is critical for everyone's sake.
Crisis situations are stressful and NOT the time for family members to be scrambling to find answers to significant questions! Our Grab and Go Binder is for you to outline as much information as possible so our loved ones not only know what your desires are in the event of a medical crisis, but so they can also carry on your personal or business affairs if need be.

Suppose you approach two financial planners and ask "How much should I be saving for retirement?" The first advisor enters your age and income into a financial model that shoots out a number that you should save per month. The second advisor begins to ask you a series of questions about your goals and any other factors that play a role to determine what would be feasible for you.Miranda will discuss what Holistic Financial Planning is all about and how to find the perfect advisor for you.
As COVID-19 has shown us, sometimes care needs evolve slowly and at other times, it’s sudden and unexpected. Many clients and some advisors have somewhat limited or outdated information on the options for funding the risk of long term or extended care. Join us as Carroll, a forward-thinking organizational consultant in the healthcare and insurance marketplace, as she shares real-life experiences of helping families.
