Written by aging experts Carolyn Rosenblatt, RN, Elder law attorney and Dr. Mikol Davis, geriatric psychologist, it offers you a wealth of knowledge you will not find from within your own industry. If you, the financial professional want to add value to what you offer clients and to distinguish yourself from robo advisors, you need to be well informed with the facts any retired person must have. Remove the vagueness from the discussion. Get some sample scripts on how to bring up the subject and the words to say to them. Stop using “average out of pocket medical costs a retired couple will spend in retirement” as a measure of what they will need. It is grossly inadequate to inform them about long term care, which is not “medical” at all. You can find out more by clicking here.
