The aggregate “cost of caregiving” in lost productivity and absenteeism to United States businesses is between $13.4 and $25.2 billion per year. There are over 53 million caregivers in the United States. Almost 157 million people in the U.S. report having one or more chronic condition. Nearly 31% of U.S. households are involved in caring for a relative or friend who is ill or disabled. Over 61% of family caregivers work outside the home.

It can take years to repair or simply go on forever. Unfortunately no one is safe – we are all at risk of ID theft – but this presentation will help you learn how to protect your assets!
