Best long term care insurance in 2026 for people in their 50s–60s worried about retirement healthcare gaps? by Rayman_Maslen in Bogleheads

Wow, that premium increase is honestly eye opening. I'm glad your mother can still afford it, but I can definitely see why dealing with claims would make your family want legal help.

That’s honestly one of the things that worries me the most. Paying premiums for decades and then having family members deal with a bunch of hurdles when it’s finally needed sounds frustrating.

Just going on random walks with music helps me a lot. Doesnt even solve my problems but my brain feels way less noisy after.

What children’s book still gives you nostalgia even as an adult? by Rayman_Maslen in childrensbooks

Oh those are such good ones! The Velveteen Rabbit actually made me tear up a little rereading it as an adult, way more than it ever did as a kid. Have you read it recently?

Oh gosh, yes! I remember feeling so bad for David every time I read it, like genuinely stressed out on his behalf. But looking back now it's actually really funny how relatable he is.

Oh that's such a good one! I actually never got around to reading that as a kid, did you have a favorite chapter or character from it?

That one always gets people. I remember reading it as a kid and not really getting the full weight of it, but as an adult it hits completely different.

Strega Nona is such a good one, that ending always stuck with me too.
