My nephew's and nieces if they want my inheritance

I had a great aunt who went to a nursing home after her husband died. She was a sweet old lady but lived a sad existence in that nursing home for 8 years. Her husband and her couldn’t have children, so her nephew had to take care of her.

You do assuming you outlive them and remain lucid. My parents are taking care of my childless uncle who didn't take care of himself in life.

This is what is going to happen to my older sister (married and divorced with no children) and younger brother (never married with no children). My older brother and I have adult children and are set.
Them? Not so much.

I’ve seen this a number of times. Relatives start quickly showing up with the expectation of getting some inheritance. It is shitty, but it happens without fail.

How many people can be absolutely sure that, say, their kids won't desert them for the paradise of Houston and leave them all alone in BR?

All the money they save not having kids lets them live like kings in their old age. Private nurses and sitters instead of Tickle Me Elmo, Playstations, and private school/college.

Most kids don't take care of their parents, they put them in retirement homes.

My aunt and uncle couldn't have kids. My sister will take care of them.

Assisted living facility, or at home care. I would never expect my kids that live all over the country to disrupt their lives to take care of me. My grandparents taught my parents to never be a burden to your children, and they taught me the same thing. Just as you should prepare financially for retirement, you should do the same thing for when the time comes you can’t take care of yourself.

The people they pay them too.

If you don't watch out these random shysters will scout you out, get their shady doctor to issue a medical report saying you're crazy, then interdict you in court. Get authority over all your money and assets with the usually unsupervised legal obligation to "take care of you". It's wild. I saw it on Dateline.

Idk. I see the Betty white stuff and I don’t want to be 99.
I guess when I get to a certain point my shotgun will do the trick.

This might be the sadest thing I’ve read.
My mom recently had a stroke after getting vaccinated. I was dead set on leaving this state. Now, not so much. I will never put my parents in a home. If they want it that bad, okay. But frick it, they can live with me as long as they have. They did it for me.
Hopefully your kids aren’t pieces of shite and give you a good end of life. Not shove you in a covid infected place operated by fricking morons.
I have to add, I remember a car trip we took. I felt car sick. Sat up front and still barfed all along the side of my dads car, came back in the back window. My dad had to clean that shite up.
frick anyone that wouldn’t do the same for their parents.

My best advice is start saving for a long-term care policy now so that you don’t have to exhaust your family members’ time and energy. People don’t realize the cost, emotionally and financially, long-term care takes up in an average life.
