Question 8 - How long will I need to pay my LTC premiums?

Would you rather pay $145,000 or $245,000 in total premiums to have $1,300,000 in long term care benefits at age 85? When we pay our premiums over a shorter number of years, we almost always pay less than if we pay a smaller rate for the rest of our lives. It's important to understand the big picture of both physical and financial health when designing a plan. If I don't ask questions, I won't know if there is a way to pay $100,000 less for the same benefits.
