Alternative to Long Term Care...

With the average cost for a Nursing Home per day reaching $188.00, there is a better way when we get old & feeble. I have ascertained that I can get a nice room at the Holiday Inn for around $65.00...that leaves $123.00 a day for beer, food (room service), laundry, gratuities, special TV movies, and gas for my PT Cruiser. They have a swimming pool, a workout room, a lounge, washer, dryer, etc. Most have free toothpaste and razors, and all have free shampoo and soap.

Super 8 is somewhat more economical and they have a free breakfast, though you usually have to walk next door for lunch and dinner. There may be a bit of a wait to get that first floor room, but that's OK, it takes months to get into decent nursing homes.

There is the Senior Bus, the Handicap bus (if you fake a decent limp), a Church bus or van, cabs, and even a regular bus. For a change of lunch take the Airport Bus and eat at one of the fast food cafe's there.

The Inn has security, and if someone sees you drop over, they will call an ambulance. And should you break a hip, the "American Way is to Sue". What more can you ask for? As a bonus, they all have AARP and other Senior discounts. So when I reach the Golden age, help me keep my grin......just check my old rickety a$$ into the nearest Holiday Inn!

That sounds real good to me Gary. See you there for breakfast!! Well, maybe not for breakfast. By the time we get there it might be dinner time already.
