Alyssa Young is your host today. She interviews Keith Strohl, an estate planning attorney with Steckel and Stopp who partners with MtM Financial Group, to talk about elder planning, also known as asset protection planning. How much money is off-limits from a nursing home for a healthy spouse who can live independently? What happens if you run out of money while receiving long-term care? What are the ways you can proactively prevent your money from being used to pay the nursing home? He introduces the pros and cons to consider.

Scott was 16-years-old when his sister, Kelly, passed away from leukemia.
In 1985, 16-year-old Kelly Gallagher was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia. Medical care for childhood leukemia in the Lehigh Valley was limited at the time. After countless trips to Children’s Hospital in Philadelphia and a bone marrow transplant at the University of Minnesota, Kelly passed away at the age of 19. She was scheduled to attend Villanova University for basketball the week after her passing.
After Kelly’s passing the Gallagher’s ran a golf tournament to raise funds to give back to local families with children suffering from Leukemia. It also provided a memorial scholarship at Allen High School, helped fund the Kelly Gallagher Atrium at Lehigh Valley Hospital’s Morgan Cancer Center, and supported the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
