Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cohabiting elders often have concerns about the negative financial consequences of marriage, such as loss of Social Security benefits, pensions, or healthcare coverage. While some may have plans to marry, many choose not to in order to maintain their financial independence. This does not necessarily mean they are willing to give up their independence or have unconventional values.
