But is that all that different from years past? When I was in my 20s-mid 30s long-term benefits were the furthest thing from my mind, as it was for most of my peers. We were more concerned with establishing homes, paying off college loans, etc. than with retirement 40+ years away. As you get closer, and a bit more settled your priorities change.
I don't know what business you're in, but I've never worked for a company that offered a pension or lifetime healthcare. Then again, with the exception of a supermarket chain I worked at while I was "between jobs", none of the companies I've worked for are still in business.
I am the VP of Actuary for all of the Blue Cross Blue Shield plans...
The lifetime healthcare will not go away under me and I will make sure it's grandfathered in regardless...
