#TuesdayTip: Take a moment to think.

This week’s #TuesdayTip is to stop, take a moment, and assess your surroundings, assess your family, assess your goals. Thinking about one’s demise (or incapacity) is not easy, but if we stop to think about what’s happening today and how we can plan for a “better” worst case scenario, why not. You may be married and have minor children, nominate guardians for them. You may not believe in marriage but have a significant other that you have built a beautiful life with, do you want to leave them hanging? You may have children from a previous marriage, do you want them to inherit a portion of your estate or no? These are just a few examples of scenarios and questions that Estate Planner’s come across. So take a moment and think.
