It’s an uncomfortable topic, it’s difficult to think about, and it’s not exactly how many people want to spend their day off. However, it is absolutely necessary. Estate Planning is essential to preparing for the inevitable and ensuring that your loved ones do not have any unavoidable stress on them during a very difficult time. It is understandable why many choose to avoid this process, and this article lists a few of the more common reasons and also lists some helpful things you can do right now to make things easier should something happen.

The three most common excuses for avoiding estate planning are: too busy, too complicated, and too superstitious. There are a few things you can do at this moment that are simple and easy and will help take the burden off your loved ones in the event of an emergency or unexpected death. First, share passwords to all accounts and services. In addition, let your family know who should speak for you if you cannot communicate yourself and what you would like done in a medical emergency. Thirdly, make a financial aggregation of all assets and money you have and also your debts. The final thing you can do is create a will and power of attorney. We know, it’s hard to think about, but this ensures your assets go to the right people.
