Recently I had the hard discussion with my dad about his plans for aging And sadly they weren't very good - basically he has no plan and is faced with some difficult prospects Like several Americans, he has a lower income and needs to work hard just to make ends meet He hasn't taken good care of himself due to a lack of insurance and cash A consequence of this was that his doctor had to tell him that he wouldn't be able to work for as long as he originally believed he would be able to What can possibly be done?
