I think it's actually quite an important point from a financial planning perspective.Does it matter
I would guess that the probability that a 65-year old man will require long term care (whether at home or in a nursing home) at some point in his life is around 30% and around 40% for a 65-year old woman (given the fact that women live longer than men).
However, that's just a guess - I've nothing to back it up.
