We’re 100 episodes old*, so we might as well talk about death. Edwin is turning out to be our most philosophical user - you’ll remember him from before. This week, we help him figure out what will happen to his investments when he dies.

We know for sure every investor, trader, RA holder and homeowner will die. Why has it taken us 100 episodes to talk about the impact of death on wealth? Mostly because it’s scary and we don’t like to think about it. Estate planning is a huge part of financial management, especially for those who have already managed to accumulate some assets. It’s moving up our list of priorities in a big way. Thanks, Edwin.

*We did also smash an entire bottle of champagne while recording this episode to celebrate 100 weeks of The Fat Wallet Show. This podcast has been a transformative experience - personally, professionally and for our business. You guys surprise us with your frankness, insights and thoughtful feedback every week. You’re a constant reminder that world is full of intelligent, sincere people who care about those around them, despite what we might think after 30 minutes on Twitter. Thank you 100 times over.

You should come party with us on Wednesday to celebrate!

Win of the week: Leonora thinks we could do better in the swearing department.

Coming from the Cape, I find your swearing vocabulary very limited.  A four year old down here might know more choice words than the two of you combined.
