What Are Your Digital Assets?
Your digital assets include any digital record you own, license, or control. Here are just a few common examples:
email accounts
social media accounts, such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, and YouTube, digital music, photos, or other files that you store on the cloud or on your laptop, cell phone, or tablet, and
online bank and brokerage accounts.
Inventory Your Digital Accounts
The first thing you should do is to make sure you have a complete list of all of your digital accounts that someone else may need to access when you die, including instructions on how to access them. This list should include all of your financial activities such as bank, investment, loan and insurance accounts. If you’re active on social media, you’ll probably want to include those accounts as well. And don’t forget about email! You can make your list on a physical piece of paper or keep it in a file on your computer. Sean recommends a physical piece of paper.
Good Luck and Thanks for Listening!!!
