  • Envision your legacy!
    It can be so difficult to be excited about the future, when you may be so stressed and overwhelmed in the current. For so many, this has been a very trying time on a number of fronts. So how do you set your mind on where you want to go with all of the distractions you may be facing? We are going to specifically look at this today.

  • Simplify your life and legacy!
    Oftentimes we complicate aspects of life unnecessarily. We think that the shuffling of our debt to outsmart rewards programs, over-leveraging ourselves to take advantage of cheap money, or taking investment risks in asset classes we don’t understand is somehow gaining us an advantage. We not only do this with our money, but we do this with our schedules, thinking that maxing-out our schedules to be available for work 24/7, being over-booked with social events, or filling our time with making sure that we are up-to-date on everything happening in the media and social media is going to give us some competitive edge otherwise.

  • Where to track your net worth?
    If you have already put together a summary of your will, insurance policies, and important documents otherwise, you may then consider utilizing a net worth tracking tool. Now this may seem like a strange addition to that group, but it’s not, and here’s why.

  • How does net worth affect your legacy?
    Income is often talked more about than net worth, but unless you received an inheritance yourself, your income is what will produce your net worth. This means that your income will both feed into the assets you purchase, but also the availability to traditional means of debt in order to purchase homes, vehicles, businesses, and other assets. Before we get too far into this, net worth is the accumulation of what you own in assets after the accumulation of what you owe in debts or liabilities is subtracted.

  • How does income affect your financial legacy?
    This is to be expected, but depending on your age group, consider your income life-cycle. How many years will you be in the career-field you are in, at what point will you transfer or sell that business, or when do you plan to actually retire. These are all considerations to ensure that your income feeds your legacy.

  • What will be your financial legacy!?
    So here’s the deal, you actually have to plan your financial legacy. Much like any individual who you received any amount of inheritance from, that inheritance had to be intentionally planned for. Not only for who it would go to and what it would be used for, but the intentional accumulation of those resources over time.

  • Should you plan for your funeral?
    Let’s talk about the thing that you may dread more than taxes, death. It seems like it’s so easy to be so unprepared for this aspect of life, even though we all know it will happen at some point. Death is certain, you and I have no idea the day, month or year we will pass on but ensuring that you have some key components in-place will give you and your loved one’s peace of mind.

  • Is a family trust the right answer?
    There’s so much that can happen in life to upset our so-called plans. So setting up a family trust can protect the assets in the event that one or more individuals are involved in a lawsuit, bankruptcy, or divorce. In addition to this, it provides additional privacy for the family protecting the estate from having the assets made public.

  • The purpose of a will
    A will is such an important piece of documentation whether you are 18 or 80. Now, as you continue to further and further outline your will, you may consider establishing a trust for your family, which we will cover in the next episode.

  • What’s your inheritance?
    Most people have very mixed emotions about receiving an inheritance from someone. Meaning that although what is being passed down may be a blessing and an honor to receive, this also means that the one who has made you their beneficiary has typically passed on. Unlike a person’s legacy, an inheritance specifically refers to an exchange of assets whether that be monetary, real-estate, family heirlooms, stocks, or assets otherwise.
