The Importance of End-of-Life Planning

End-of-life planning is not at the top of our to do list, especially when we are healthy. Unfortunately, death is inevitable. As Kilroy Oldster said, “death is the great equalizer of human beings.” We all experience death, it’s unavoidable.

For many of us, it is an uncomfortable and even taboo subject matter to approach. Here is where a financial advisor can play a significant role in helping you plan for that moment, ease your anxiety, and help your loved one act on your wishes efficiently and accurately.

Life Transitions – Death of a Loved One

Losing a loved one is one of the most emotionally challenging events we face in life. In addition to the grief and heartache, there are many financial implications with which to contend that can be complicated by family relations and whether or not the person had his/her estate plan in order.

One of the greatest gifts you can give your loved ones is to be proactive and well organized in not only preparing your estate plan, but in communicating your intentions to your beneficiaries. Right down to the music you want played at your funeral, every detail you think through in advance will relieve the burden from those left to handle your estate so they can focus on mourning and honoring your wishes.
