Just over one-quarter of Americans (26%) say they have given “a lot” of thought to how they will pay for long-term care. Not surprisingly, the share of adults who say they have thought about how to pay for long-term care increases with age. While just one in ten (10%) adults ages 18-29 say they have given these plans “a lot” of thought, more than two in ten (23%) adults ages 30-49, three in ten (33%) adults ages 50-64 and four in ten (43%) seniors say the same.
