Start by having level-headed discussions about the value of life.<p>I know a lot of families taking on massive debt to help pay for their parent&#x27;s old age. Five-Six figures here and there to extend their parent&#x27;s lives by a decade or two, saddling themselves with debt and leaving the next generation with no assets... Likely after moving the entire family to a decaying suburban city. All so the previous generation can stick around with a much poorer quality of life.<p>Health care has a far larger impact than the number on the bill. We need to openly talk about life and accept the inevitableness of death.
