The Cost of Waiting

Why it pays to be decisive.

Please fill out the short form below to receive a downloadable copy of our free Cost of Waiting Guide.

For most people, the idea of enjoying your golden years is about having free time – the luxury of having nowhere to be, nothing to do, and not a care in the world. It’s about living life at the pace you choose, and being able to decide on your next move independent of other factors in your schedule that were once mandatory, like work or travel.

And why not? After all, this is meant to be your chance to relax. Your moment to soak in the freedom you’ve earned over all these years.

However, when the time comes to decide on where you plan to spend your retirement, being too patient can, at times, become more costly to you than being decisive. That’s because, for many older adults, once the time comes to physically make the move elsewhere, they find themselves having other concerns about the future and what it may hold.

Life is full of the unexpected, and that doesn’t change just because we start tapping into our 401(k). From unforeseen financial changes to adjustments in our overall health, or even a decline in our ability to handle daily chores we once thought were easy – we never truly know what the future holds. And as these changes take place, our options start to become limited, leaving us in a predicament where family members and loved ones end up making decisions for us based on what’s available, rather than what we prefer.

And that’s only part of the cost of waiting. To help you break down all the financial, mental, and health-related aspects of your retirement, we’ve put together this downloadable Cost of Waiting Guide for you as you work to figure out your next steps. Using the information provided in this guide, you’ll have all the resources necessary to make a timely decision about your senior living destination that’s fruitful for you and your future. If, after reading this guide, you’d like more information about our entrance fee Life Plan Community, we’re here for you - give us a call at (914) 925-8243.
