Transcript: 

Bill: Tell us about your book, you have a book out, it's called, "The Boomers Guide to Aging Parents" correct? 

Carolyn: Right. And, you know, after I retired from my litigation practice, I didn't have very much to do. You can't just start a business just by snapping your fingers, as you know. So, I decided that I would write a book to answer some of the questions that people were asking me. And, it was sort of a random effort at first, but it took shape, there are 9 chapters. It deals with things like: What do you do if your parent is a dangerous driver? How do you get them to accept help? What if they need help at home, what are the pitfalls for hiring a person to come in and assist your loved one? What do you do if you're trying to figure out whether they should have assisted living or a nursing home, how do you know the difference, how do you pick one? All that sort of thing. And, I think one of the important chapters, too, is how to deal with family conflict, because that's a common area that we work with. There are a lot of dysfunctional families out there, and it's hard to get people to work in unison when there is dysfunction in the relationship.

In this 1 minute highlight, Nick Yocca, owner - The Yocca Law firm, discusses briefly how different states offer different levels protection for those considering Asset Protection.

Transcript: 

Nick: We can find your best asset protection in odd places. Forming an Alaska LLC isn't a bad thing, either. Nevada is certainly a good LLC state. California is not terrible, but the environment here makes it a little bit dicey. Our judiciary, and the judiciary in Nevada, if you were to compare them side-by-side, you have much more of a plaintiff, or tilt in California and less in a Nevada. Where asset protection is the key, we sometimes would steer toward Florida, where your home stay exemption is $1,000,000, and so your asset protection can be that much stronger. But, I did mention Alaska, they have terrific asset protection. So, it kind of depends on what your preferences are, and it can be found within the structure. But, if you were highly concentrated in California, you might think about diversifying just to get some of your assets elsewhere.

In this 1 minute highlight, Mark Dorman, President & Founder of Dorman Legacy Advisors, shares his tips for you to consider as you begin to plan for your Exit.

Transcript: 

Mark: Be prepared to spend some time. You build a business and maybe it's 15-30 years. I was with a gentleman this morning over breakfast, he goes, "Well, how long is this gonna take?" I said, "Well, you built a company that does 20 million in revenue, you think we can find 30 hours over the next 52 weeks to actually focus on how you are going to transfer it to your kids?" And, you know, when you play it back to them in that fashion, he's like, "Yeah, I think that would make some sense." So, you have to be able to commit the time. 

The other tips would be, make sure you're working with people who know what they're doing. They have a process. They don't have to have the answers to all the technical questions, we work collaboratively with all sorts of professionals, transaction attorneys, corporate attorneys, CPAs, etc. So, no one has the monopoly on good ideas, but we have to have a great process that can focus on the needs of the owner. And then, secondly, in every closely held company, there's such a reliance on a small group of key employees. If you're not intending to have that company transfer to that key employee group, you really need to focus on building incentive plans and retention strategies to keep them with the company.
