US man’s retirement arrangement goes viral

American seniors trying to retire for barely anything have a new source of inspiration: a Texas man who intends to spend his brilliant years in Holiday Inn hotels to maintain a strategic distance from expensive nursing home charges.

“For a combined long term stay discount and senior discount, it’s $59.23 per night,” Houston-area resident Terry Robison said on Facebook three weeks prior in a post that has since gone viral.

“They treat you like a customer, not a patient,” Robison says. “Want to see Hawaii? They have Holiday Inn there too.”

In excess of 113,000 individuals have shared Robison’s thought – a genuinely point by point one, at that – to depend on the budget hotel chain, with free breakfast, for day by day living.

“The maid checks to see if you are ok. If not, they’ll call an ambulance… or the undertaker,” Robison includes.

The arrangement has resounded when costs for retirees have skyrocketed. The middle cost of nursing homes, with prepared medicinal staff, is presently simply over $100,000, as per a report by CNBC.

Competition is at any rate incompletely to fault, with somewhere in the range of 10,000 baby boomers retiring every day, as per the business news channel.

“I’ve actually met an elderly lady one time that was actually living in a Hampton Inn. She was quite content,” said one Facebook commenter in answer to Robison’s post.
