How Much Estate Planning Do You Actually Need?
Most estate planning content starts by assuming you need a trust. This one doesn't.
I sat down with Jim Burch to walk through the entire range — from doing nothing at all, up through irrevocable trusts — so you can figure out where you actually sit instead of being sold the top of the ladder.
If you've never thought about estate planning, this is the whole map in one video. If you already have documents in place, the beneficiary designation section and the irrevocable trust discussion are worth your time.
