What if self-funding long-term care isn't the best strategy, even if you have the assets?

Frank Iozzo, fiduciary financial planner and founder of FMI Financial , joined Kelly Augspurger to explore some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding long-term care planning and the financial decisions that could impact your future.

Whether you're planning for yourself, helping aging parents, or advising clients, this conversation offers practical insights that could change the way you think about protecting your family, finances, and legacy.

Everyone has a Plan A.

The real question is: Do you have a Plan B?

Most people can easily describe how they hope to age, where they want to live, and what they want retirement to look like. But life doesn't always follow the script.

A health event, unexpected diagnosis, or increased care needs can quickly change what's possible—and that's why backup planning matters.

Ashley Haruna, RN, founder of La Perle Concierge, discusses why families should think beyond their ideal scenario and consider what happens if circumstances change.

Because the best care plans don't just prepare for what you hope will happen. They prepare for what might happen.
