I've heard it takes tons of money to keep some old people alive. Can you put a price cap on maintaining life? Is there an equation where you say "If quality of life <= cost of care Then pull the plug." I have no direct experience, but it seems to be very difficult to let a person die, and that cannot be cheap. When do we say when?

What good is living until 102, when the quality of life is horrible?
