Thank you Howard for your article, I will be adding it to my reading stack. One aspect of this topic that I rarely see covered is the evolution, as we age, of advance directives. My desires at age 50 were different than what my desires will be later this year when I turn 70. Then 80, then probably 90. I want interventions reduced over time while still differentiating between chronic conditions and acute. I would appreciate your thoughts and any possible resources you can recommend.
Agreed that the "punch line" was saved for last. My bride and I are preparing to begin a scholarship to new college graduates that will pay off one or two debt balances each year. We knew we wanted to do something that would have a major life impact on a couple of people each year instead of adding our money to a big pot that is spread out to many people. Our only request is that if their life gives them the opportunity to do likewise sometime in the future that they consider paying it forward to others.
