Press Release Summary: Long Term Care Awareness Week to Be Supported by Facts from
St. Charles Expert and Colleagues

Press Release Body: St. Charles, Illinois, November 13, 2007 - Now there\'s a week,
devoted to thinking about an issue many Americans put out of mind: the possibility
of needing long term care someday. \"Nobody likes the idea of being incapacitated for
an extended period,\" says Bobbi Schwaeber Foster, St. Charles-based Partner of LTC
Financial Partners, the nation\'s most experienced long term care insurance
brokerage, \"but it\'s smart to plan ahead. If you do, you can protect your assets,
take steps to keep healthy as long as possible, and rest assured you\'ll be taken
care of no matter what.\"

Long Term Care Awareness Week, endorsed by federal and state officials, \"will give
us all a chance to focus on this important issue,\" says Schwaeber Foster. \"But
awareness doesn\'t have to fade after November 10. We\'re offering an army of experts
to dispense facts in the weeks ahead.\" The facts will be available online, in print,
and in person in Illinois and other states.

The awareness followup, to be available year-round, will consist of free text and
visual information presented on multiple websites serving all localities. There will
also be a free guidebook for consumers; a free quarterly newsletter; free materials
for small, medium, and large businesses; and free talks before local groups. \"We
have nearly 400 of the nation\'s top specialists in this field,\" says Schwaeber
Foster, \"and they\'ll all be available to dispense these free services.\"

or by calling 866-513-0034 . Individuals may also, at the same time, view a video on
long term care, and request competitive LTC insurance quotes from 6 leading
carriers.

Long Term Care Awareness Week was made official earlier this year by the U.S. House
of Representatives (HR133). \"We owe a debt of gratitude to Jesse Slome for coming up
with the idea and promoting it to Congress,\" says Schwaeber Foster. Slome heads the
American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance.

Foster was a featured speaker at a recent AARP national convention; and made a
presentation before the American College of Surgeons, engaging them in a program
that supports long term care protection. From 1999 to 2004 she was a Regional Sales
Manager for General Electric and supervised 20 agents offering long term care
insurance. Now a Partner of LTC Financial Partners LLC, she is a national expert in
her field.

Viewing herself as an educator and guide in the complex sphere where physical and
financial health coincide, she helps individuals and organizations select among
multiple leading carriers to secure the best protection of their assets and
wellness. She is licensed in 26 states.

As part of her public education service, Foster will make herself available to area
groups and companies for briefing sessions, after-dinner talks, and lectures.
