5 Estate Planning Must-Haves for Everyone Over 50
In this episode of the Retire Early Podcast, financial advisors and retirement planners Sam Benson and Linwood Fraher of Martin Wealth Solutions break down the five estate planning basics every retiree should have in place. They explain why these core documents aren’t just for the wealthy — but for anyone who wants peace of mind, control, and protection for their family. From wills and trusts to powers of attorney, Sam and Linwood walk through the essentials that help retirees avoid costly mistakes and ensure their wishes are carried out.
You’ll learn how each piece fits into your retirement plan and why updating these documents regularly is just as important as creating them in the first place.
