In this episode of The Retirement Nerds, I sit down with estate planning expert Jim Burch to break down the biggest hurdles that stop families from completing their estate plan — and how to overcome them.We talk through the most common barriers, including fear of cost, not knowing where to start, avoiding uncomfortable conversations, information overload, and the belief that you must immediately hire a lawyer.
