CNN —Taking care of an elderly parent or seriously ill spouse or family member can be physically and emotionally draining — and expensive for the caregiver in more ways than one. While employers have been expanding their benefits to help employees start families and more easily care for their children, they are now thinking more holistically about what it means to support employees’ family lives, including benefits for things like elder care, Izbicki said. Fuller constructed a return-on-investment model to assess the value of providing caregiving benefits. Given the high cost of replacing employees, reducing turnover can mean the cost of providing caregiving benefits will more than pay for itself. Protecting caregivers’ financesWorking caregivers navigate a lot: Finding doctors, heath care aides and assisted living facilities or nursing homes.

For three years, Miura chipped in time, money and care, taking her grandmother to the emergency room so often that she got to know all the hospital security guards by name. "It was very stressful," said Miura, now 28, who helps others in this situation at her advisory Spark Financials. "What stands out for me is the number of people who are not only caregivers, but financial caregivers too," said Surya Kolluri, who heads the TIAA Institute. No wonder caregivers' financial lives are impacted: On average they have fewer assets and higher debt than non-caregivers, the report found. Remember that others could likely contribute money or time or both as well, including siblings, children, friends, cousins and in-laws.

Ashley Ray was in the midst of purchasing her "dream car" when she got a troubling call from her mother. Ray's car deal was delayed, so she was able to use the money to help her mom avoid losing the house. She was glad to be able to help her mom, but as she told her Twitter followers, "god loves a joke." It can be stressful to prioritize your own long-term financial needs when other people are relying on you. There can also be a cultural expectation to take care of your parents and other relatives as they age, Miura says.

Over half of millennials are expecting to receive an inheritance, recent research shows. Aside from potential tax obligations, a cash inheritance may sound like a sweet deal for the recipient. "Many people don't realize that as they're going through the grieving process, they may make unfortunate decisions," Miura says. Along with the expected emotions around the death of a loved one, feelings about the money itself can create an emotional conundrum for an inheritance recipient. Sometimes people feel guilty about receiving an inheritance based on the assumption that you should work hard to earn money, Miura says.

"Renting is throwing money away" and "a credit card balance is good for your credit score" are examples. That made me wonder if frequently passed-along financial advice always rings true. Crypto is the futureLately, all the financial advice my friends are giving me has to do with cryptocurrencies. "Since credit utilization is responsible for 30% of your credit score, it's a good idea to keep it as low as you can."
