I don't think anyone should expect an inheritance by the way, it would be nice to get I think most would agree with that but people should be self-sufficient (with exceptions of course) and at the same time people should attempt to maximize their enjoyment of their last years and not be concerned with giving their kids or cats money.

I know that there are many costs associated with the running of these facilities, and truthfully I don't know what the profit margins would be for these operations.
Also, don't misunderstand me. I'm not talking about anyone expecting an inheritance, that is selfish. I'm speaking from the perspective of someone who has willfully allotted money to loved ones by their own volition.
