About this listen
Too many people make the wrong choices when it comes to estate planning. If it's not done properly, you could leave your loved ones facing trouble when you pass away or become incapacitated. Fortunately, you can learn from other's mistakes and be prepared before speaking to a lawyer about your future.
In this no-nonsense guide, attorney James L. Cunningham, Jr. shows how to avoid the top-ten mistakes that could damage your financial succession, family, heirs, and legacy. You'll get the unvarnished picture on probate, living trusts, living wills, powers of attorney, conservators, and guardians, as well as disability and incapacity planning and how to find the right attorney for you. There's even a checklist to guide you on what issues to discuss with them.
Savvy Estate Planning provides the essentials you need to know about estate planning. The only mistake you could make now would be to ignore it.

Let’s face it, estate planning is complicated and confusing. And talking about your death is uncomfortable. It’s no wonder estate planning is one of those things parents put off until it’s too late. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Remember the story of Cinderella, the orphan mistreated by her evil stepmother and stepsisters? Consider an alternative legally "happily ever after" that starts with an estate plan and ends with Cinderella keeping the house! The reality is that children all over the world suffer because their parents fail to put an estate plan into place.

Many Americans dream of financial freedom, but they're stuck in dead-end jobs and don't know how to get there. You don't need to be one of them. If you invested $35,000 in the stock market today, it could take 52 years for that investment to grow to $1 million. But if you invested that same amount into one single-family $140,000 rental property, it would only take 19 years. With just two rental properties, you could generate $417,000 in profit in just 10 years. Skeptical?

Fantastic crash course honesty
I love this book! this was concise and highly elaborate information all at once, giving you a wonderful breakdown of all the things to know that "you may not know or may not know you don't know". This was the third book I read on estate planning but the first to arm you with the right questions and motivate you to get into your first meetings to protect yourself and your family! read this book, listen to this book, then read it again, then read other books and then come back to this book, cuz you will forget and you will learn over and over.
