Now is the time to change that trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The truth is, most of us avoid thinking about our own future aged care needs, delaying our decisions until perhaps they\u2019re taken out of our hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Life expectancies are increasing. This means not only might we expect to live longer than our parents and grandparents, but we might also expect longer and more active retirements. However, this does not remove the possibility that we may need help with daily living and medical care in our older years. If we reach a point when we are increasingly vulnerable, we don\u2019t want to be left unprepared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Planning creates peace of mind<br><\/strong>Planning for our retirement, as we dream of travel, cruise ships and caravans as well as more time playing with the grandkids, can be quite enjoyable. Perhaps that\u2019s why we put off planning for our aged care needs \u2013 it\u2019s not as much fun to think ahead to a time when we might need more support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But with the right advice, planning ahead offers many benefits and can be easier than you think. Benefits may include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Peace of mind for you and your family<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Taking pressure off family when a crisis occurs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Allowing you to have a voice, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoiding costly mistakes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Creating a plan that will work for you includes consideration for what sort of life you want to live and what makes a good life for you. This should take into account options for where you could live but also how to continue to your interests and stay connected to family, friends and your community. Understanding the costs and planning your finances is a key component of making the plan work effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Don\u2019t leave it too late<br><\/strong>Don\u2019t leave your planning too late. Let your wishes be known while you have the capacity to do so, as you may not down the track. We have helped many of our clients to start the planning process and often discuss when and how to bring your family into this process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sophie Doyle<\/strong> (AR#000470612) is an Aged Care Specialist at Morgans Financial Limited (Morgans AFSL 235410 \/ ABN49 010 669 726); with a passion for assisting people make informed financial decisions, as they navigate their way through retirement and aged care.
