The high cost of extended medical care will also greatly reduce the inheritances of many boomers. The money will go into the pockets of doctors and hospitals. Then 40-50% will be wasted in taxes on those people. The other 50% will eventually go to the busters in 50 years, if there is anything left after the collapse of the dollar.
The great inheritance being passed down to a multitude of boomers is a modern day myth. Did CNBC ever say anything that was truthful?
