Facing Care Decisions? This Listener’s Dilemma Might Be Yours
Welcome to the *Plan for This Podcast*—your trusted source for estate planning, wills, trusts, caregiving, and financial preparedness.
Hosted by Marguerite Lorenz and Ron Greenwald, we simplify complex topics into clear, actionable steps that help you protect what matters most.
📌 In this episode:
What happens when estate planning details are unclear, incomplete, or assumed instead of confirmed? In this episode of Plan for This, Marguerite and Ron respond to a real PlanFan question that reveals how quickly everyday uncertainty can turn into legal, financial, and emotional stress.
They break down how gaps in authority, outdated documents, and unspoken assumptions create delays and unintended consequences during moments of crisis. The conversation focuses on why “almost planned” is often more dangerous than not planning at all, and how clarity, not complexity, is the goal of effective estate planning.
This episode is a practical reminder that planning is not about perfection, it is about removing uncertainty so families are not forced to make high-stakes decisions under pressure.
