EDWARD JONES: FINANCIAL FOCUS
Prepare Far Ahead for Long-Term Care Costs
November is Long-Term Care
Awareness Month – a month dedicated
to educating the public about the need to
prepare for the potentially devastating
costs of long-term care. And the more
you know about these expenses, the
better prepared you will be to deal with
them.
To begin with, just how expensive
is long-term care? Consider this: The
average cost for a private room in a
nursing home is more than $87,000 per
year, according to the 2014 Cost of
Care Survey produced by Genworth, a
financial-services company.
And the average cost of an assisted
living facility, which provides a level of
care that is not as extensive as that offered
by a nursing home, is $42,000 per year,
according to the same Genworth study.
All long-term care costs have risen
steadily over the past several years, with
no indication that they will level off.
Many people, when they think
about long-term care at all, believe that
Medicare will pay these costs – but that’s
just not the case. Typically, Medicare only
covers a small percentage of long-term
care expenses, which means you will have
to take responsibility. Of course, if you
are fortunate, you may go through life
without ever needing to enter a nursing
home or an assisted living facility, or
even needing help from a home healthcare aide. But given the costs involved,
can you afford to jeopardize your financial independence – or, even worse, impose a potential burden on your grown
children?
To prevent these events, you will need
to create a strategy to pay for long-term
care expenses – even if you never incur
them. Basically, you have two options:
You could self-insure or you could “transfer the risk” to an insurer.
If you were going to self-insure, you
would need to set aside a considerable
sum of money, as indicated by the costs
mentioned above. And you would likely
need to invest a reasonably high percentage of this money in growth-oriented
investments. If you chose this self-insurance route, but you never really needed
a significant amount of long-term care,
you could simply use the bulk of the
money for your normal living expenses
during retirement and earmark the remainder for your estate. However, if you
did need many years of nursing home
care, you could end up going through all
your money.
As an alternative, you could transfer
the risk of paying for long-term care to
an insurance company. Many plans are
available these days, so, to find the choice
that is appropriate for your needs, you
will want to consult with a professional
financial advisor. Here’s a word of caution,
though: The premiums for this type of
protection rise pretty rapidly as you get
older, so, if you are considering adding
this coverage, you may be better off by
acting sooner, rather than later.
None of us can know with certainty
what the future holds for us. Ideally, you
will always remain in good shape, both
mentally and physically, with the ability
to take care of yourself. But, as you’ve
heard, it’s best to “hope for the best, but
plan for the worst.” So, take the lessons
of Long-Term Care Awareness Month to
heart and start preparing yourself for
every scenario.
This article was written by Edward Jones

Advisor.
Habitat for Humanity coming to Bedford!
There is some very exciting news in
case you have not heard. In 2015, Habitat
for Humanity will be doing their first
home in the Bedford area and it is an
exciting opportunity for our entire business, civic, academic, and religious community to come out and support the work.
In the case of the home in Bedford,
Habitat for Humanity in partnership with
contractors and volunteers will be demolishing a home on the property and will
be building a brand new home for the
qualified occupant. This will improve the
community, and the mandatory training
and support Habitat requires of the
resident family ensures their success in
satisfying not only the loan but in being
a great neighbor in the community.
What do we need? YOU!
For this to be the most successful it
can be we will need YOUR help. Ten to
12 volunteers on 20-30 days of the project
will be needed to complete the work.
Between local businesses, churches,
civic groups, high school band, the college,
band boosters, robotics club, sports teams
etc. we can bring a HUGE amount of
support for this project. We can make a
difference in a neighborhood, a community, and without question to the lives of
the future home owners.
Habitat will be a featured guest at
the November BBA meeting and you are
encouraged to attend. At this time, the
timeline for the project and the dates
volunteers are needed have yet to be finalized. However, what we need RIGHT
NOW are commitments. We need to get
volunteer groups together and businesses to commit to help to show we are
ready to get behind this project.
So what can you do now? Contact
Kristin Johnson at Habitat for Humanity,
(734) 243-2048 or kjohnson@habitat
monroemi.org or contact TC Clements,
(734) 224-0113 or tclements@cruise
planners.com to commit to be involved.
We want to build a list of those with interest to ensure when the time comes we
have the volunteers and resources
needed to make this project AWESOME!
In addition to needing volunteers,
Habitat tries to get a donation for each
work day of approximately $500 to cover
the cost of the materials, signs for the
sponsoring businesses, etc. Can’t provide
10-12 people and $500? No problem. TC
Clements will be organizing small businesses who want to be involved but need
to work together to make it happen. As
an example, Premier Cruise Planners will
donate $100 and can bring two staff. TC
will then partner up with four other
companies that can do the same thing and
next thing you know one full day of work
is committed for the project. This allows
every business, no matter how big or
small, a chance to participate. Do you own
a restaurant? Want to donate some food
for workers? We need that too! Contact
Kristin or TC and let them know you
are ready to help in whatever way you
can.
PLEASE make sure you attend the
November BBA meeting so you can hear
what Habitat has to say about this exciting opportunity. But please contact
Kristin or TC to let them know you are
ready to help.
We are BEDFORD PROUD … let's
be BEDFORD STRONG!
Facing the challenges of MCCC’s
unsuccessful millage request
By Dr. Kojo A. Quartey
I am sure that by now most of the
residents of Monroe County are aware
that Monroe County Community College’s millage request on Nov. 4 was
unsuccessful.
However, while we are disappointed
by the results of the millage vote, we
remain enthusiastic about what the
future holds for MCCC and Monroe
County.
For more than 50 years, MCCC has
remained a constant in the community,
evolving with the times to adapt to the
changing needs of the community and
continuing a record of excellence and
service. We will continue to do just that
for the next 50 years and more.
I would like to take this opportunity
to thank the residents of Monroe County
for their continued support of MCCC.
This is a high-quality institution with
high-quality people in a high-quality
community.
I would also like to thank all of those
who dedicated so much time and energy
to getting information out about the
millage proposal. We had so many
people and organizations in the community who helped out in so many
ways that it is impossible to name all of
them here. But it was a great effort by all,
and we truly appreciate all of their hard
work.
My colleagues and I are eager to
embrace the many challenges we now
face with the defeat of the millage request.
We have some key items that we will
be examining immediately, because the
college has been offsetting major decreases to its funding streams for more
than six years. There are really no more
areas left to trim, and our ability to continue to offer high-quality higher education at such an affordable price has been
severely challenged.
As we said throughout the campaign,
the MCCC Board of Trustees has always
maintained a balanced budget and been
fiscally responsible by not incurring debt.
This was exemplified by the fact that we
had not asked the voters to increase our
millage in 34 years and that the college
still has no debt. This philosophy will not
change. Therefore, we will start by reevaluating the entire MCCC budget and
our organizational structure.
MCCC’s leadership will review all
of its academic programs, student services, and other areas and decide upon
potential cuts in those areas. With the
failure of the millage request, the college
simply cannot continue to operate in the
same form as it has.
Included in the analysis will be a
thorough review of our tuition and fee
structure.
The college has a significant mainte-
United Way of Monroe County
holds November 18th blood drive
The United Way of Monroe County
and the American Red Cross have been
partners for over 88 years, but this is only
the second time in recent memory that
the United Way has sponsored a blood
drive. The organization will hold a blood
drive on Tuesday, November 18. The Red
Cross Mobile Blood Bus will be in the
United Way parking lot from 10 a.m. to
2:30 p.m.
The need for blood locally remains
constant, and donations are needed to
offset blood shortages. People can donate
a pint of blood every 56 days. Donors are
encouraged to eat a meal prior to giving
blood and drink plenty of water. Photo
ID is required at donation time.
The Red Cross urgently needs donations to ensure an adequate blood supply
is available for patients, all year round.
While all blood types are needed, type O
negative is always in high demand because it can be transfused to patients with
any blood type, especially in emergency
situations.
The need for blood is constant.
Trauma victims, cancer patients, premature babies and children who suffer
from sickle cell disease often need blood
products to survive every day in the
community. Every two seconds someone
in America needs blood.
The first 12 individuals to schedule
an appointment will receive a United Way
2014 t-shirt. Please call the United Way
of Monroe County at (734) 242-1331 to
schedule a lifesaving blood donation
appointment for November 18.
nance backlog in major areas of the
physical plant, such as major heating and
cooling, plumbing and electrical systems
that will have to be addressed. Roofs are
already leaking and basements have
flooded. Delaying repairs is no longer an
option.
The information technology infrastructure at MCCC is in need of major
updating and also must be addressed.
Lack of investment in this area will have
a major impact on student success.
We understand that the election was
not a referendum on MCCC. The quality
of the programs we provide and the many
lives that we transform and enrich have
never been in question. The college continues to be a vitally important resource
in the community.
I can assure you that MCCC remains
committed to providing high-quality
higher education for the residents of
Monroe County. But we must maintain
this commitment within the limits of the
funding we have available.
As we re-evaluate the MCCC budget
to meet our new challenges, I value your
input and welcome you to share any
questions and concerns with me. Please
email me at kquartey@monroeccc.edu or
call the Office of the President at (734)
384-4311.
Dr. Kojo A. Quartey is president of
Monroe County Community College.
Closed trailer
request
A trailer is needed for the BBA 2014
Annual Food Drive. The trailer will be

December 6th until Monday, December
8th in the evening to hold all of the food
items collected from the Food Drive. The
trailer will be stored at Townsend Carpeting until the Goodfellows are able to
