Estate Planning for All Stages of Life

Estate planning is not just for the rich, and should not be held off until a certain age. If you have children, own a house, have investment accounts, or have debt (mortgage, student loan), it is wise to prepare for the unexpected in order to protect your loved ones and your assets. The process of estate planning includes some of the following:

• Making a will: In a will, you make arrangements for how your money gets distributed and, if applicable, name a guardian for your children
• Power-of-attorney: When you give someone power of attorney, they are responsible for making financial and medical decisions for you if you are somehow incapacitated. They become your attorney-in-fact.
• Purchasing life insurance: If you pass away, life insurance provides financial support to those who depend on you
• Covering funeral arrangements: A funeral can either be prepaid, or money can be set aside in an account specifically for covering funeral costs
• Organizing and consolidating important documents: This ensures that your attorney-in-fact knows how to gain access to important documents, if needed
