ESTATE PLANNING

Many people might say that estate planning involves wills, trusts, asset protection, planning for disability or death. And it does include all those things, but those things are just what we  do.  More importantly, at Edwards Group, we ask the question: WHY do estate planning?

Money or Things.  Commonly referred to as assets, things such as your house, farm, business, savings accounts, IRAs, life insurance, gold coins, or an antique car are just a few of the things you may have worked very hard for. When you’re gone, what do you want done with these things you have accumulated? What good would you hope those things could do for others? How could your money or things be used to help someone, ease suffering, bring joy, or give someone a leg up? These are all important questions to answer with effective estate planning.

People or Causes.  Who are the people or causes that are most important to you? Your spouse? Kids or grandkids? Your church, the Salvation Army, local theater or arts organizations, or an environmental cause? How will the money or things you have be used when you’re gone to reflect what is most important to you?

We help clients everyday who want to create an effective plan to transfer their wealth, creating a legacy that will last long after they are gone. Learn more about estate planning at one of our FREE  planning workshops  or by signing up for our  weekly e-newsletter.
