Wills and Trusts
It is estimated that as many as 67% of Americans die without having a Will or a Trust! This means that for millions of decedents, the State (through what is called intestate succession laws) determines where and how your property is distributed. For many, this could be a woefully undesired result.
Don’t let the State determine how your property is distributed! Why so many don’t have a Will/Trust:
- Procrastination/Avoidance – thinking about death is uncomfortable and forces people to confront their mortality
- Lack of Awareness – many don’t understand the consequences of not having a Will or Trust, and don’t fully appreciate the amount of stress and consternation it causes their love ones
- Cost and Complexity – many think that Wills, and especially Trusts, will costs several thousands of dollars and don’t realize that the costs to their love ones once they pass could be much greater without a Will or Trust
- No Major Assets – many think they don’t need one because they don’t own any major assets – not true
- Superstition or Fear – in some cases, there’s a subconscious belief that writing a will/trust will “jinx” them – everyone dies – plan accordingly
- Trust in Family – others assume their family will figure it out or don’t expect disputes – they might not foresee how grief, differing opinions, or legal grey areas can lead to messy fights without clear instructions
- Life is Busy – between work, family, and everything else, sitting down to plan for death often falls to the bottom of the to-do list
