Make Sure Your Heirs Inherit What You Want
Make Sure Your Heirs Inherit What You Want.
The saying goes that their only two things that are certain in life: death and taxes. While people can generate endless amounts of money when they’re alive, they can’t live forever and they can’t take that wealth with them when they die. However, they can have a very detailed and specific say on how their wealth is distributed when they do pass away. Despite that, it seems that many wealthy people, as well as many in the middle class, overlook this important aspect of life.
Changes that can change which heir get what
Although you can make a change to your estate plan at any time, there are two ideal times in life when updating your estate plan is a good idea. If you have experienced any major life-changing events, like getting married, getting divorced, having a child or starting a new business venture, that is also a good time to update your plan.
