There is no reason to be concerned about an additional kitchen. With a dorm sized fridge, microwave, coffee-maker and a crockpot, most folks can get by nicely without an actual kitchen. Many assisted living facilities have nothing more than that in their one room, one bath living spaces (essentially - a one room studio with only a "station" for the earlier mentioned appliances). Sometimes, they set up the "station" like a bar - and have a bar sink with the fridge under it and a countertop for the microwave, and shelving above for coffee and condiments, cereal, etc. and plates/utensils.

Ugh
I am not a poor man. When I'm old and need a little help getting around, you want me to live like I'm a college freshman? :-)
Oh no, Larry, of course not !
The Next Gen homes have a really nice second kitchen with full L shaped granite counters, tile floor, stainless dishwasher and fridge, lots of hi end cabinets, little nook built in for the microwave, and stainless sink and pull out faucet. Everything you would want in a very nice home.
Of course, alot of this is upgraded, so , if you have the moola, as you said, you are good to go !
If I reach that point although I get along very well with the family I would prefer to move where I would have the ability to socialize with people my own age.
Same for me.
