Planning for Health Care Expenses in Retirement
Jeffrey Swett
Founder and Financial Advisor
The Swett Wealth Management Group
"One tool available to people to help plan for health care expenses in retirement is a long-term care insurance plan. These plans can help pay for health care expenses not covered by Medicare or Medicaid, such as in home care, a nursing home, assisted living, etc. It is best to consider buying a long-term care policy at least a few years before you retire."
Named one of Financial Times' Top 400 Financial Advisors in the country, Swett is available to discuss economy changes with the election, retirement planning and advice, employee stock option plans, 401(k)s, IRAs, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, women's investing hurdles, millennial investing advice, planning for care of an elderly family member, health care, when to retire, financial literacy with young adults and mentoring. He is based in Boston.

    --  SIDE HUSTLES: 4 STEPS TO GETTING YOUR GROOVE BACK BEYOND YOUR 9-TO-5.
        Tell me if this sounds familiar: You started something, but never
        finished it. Maybe it was a blog, podcast, or YouTube channel. Or you
        took a stab and freelancing, but it never gained momentum. Eventually,
        you stopped. You're not alone. When you're working a full-time
        journalism job, it can be tough to maintain a side gig -- but it's not
        impossible. If you're ready to give your side groove a second chance,
        here are some tips to help you start and keep going:

        are challenged to provide content to readers hungry for breaking
        information and features. Here are some apps that are making inroads
        into newsrooms around the globe: http://bit.ly/2jzKFaL
