    John Hancock raising Long Term Care rates 32%

    Bottom line is I just wanted to point out to you that you were mistaken in your belief that ALL mutual companies were priced twice as high as Genworth and John Hancock. The fact remains that Northwestern is a mutual company that IS outrageously expensive for LTC. Mass Mutual and Guardian are...

    John Hancock raising Long Term Care rates 32%

    With all due respect you are analyzing the cost incorrectly. The price of the compound inflation rider with Guardian is not "insane." It's approximately the same percentage as Genworth or Hancock. In looking at the percentage of premium increase for your hypothetical couple age 70/63 best...
