I don't know, but maybe if you ask the same question 3 times in a row you'll get an answer. Oh you already did that, didn't you?

When it comes to long term care planning, what you need to consider is whether or not you have assets you want to protect for your family's future. Also, whether you should buy long–term care insurance depends on your age and life expectancy, gender, family situation and health status.

A typical LTC premium is going to be $1,000 to $3,000 per year. Paying a controlled amount annually is better than risking an unpredictable and potentially devasting cost in the future.  Long term care insurance costs are quite expensive so better prepare for them.
