So you younger Guys follow the Health thread and take good care of yourself...Otherwise the money you Save and Invest will get eaten up later by Hospitals and Doctors...

Words beyond wisdom. Money won't buy you health. Steve Jobs can attest to that.
Part of financial planning should be the "what if's" of future health costs. My father's passing was a real eye-opener for me in that his sudden departure was in many ways a blessing. He left life on his own terms and it did not have to destroy his estate to pay for in-home or nursing care (I didn't care if he died broke, but HE did.)
There are no easy or inexpensive options here. In the long run, if one wants to protect their assests and pass them on to their children the the best thing to do is talk to a tax and financial professional/lawyer and start planning now. There are timeline rules for what can, and cannot, be done for asset protection.
