Organizing Your Life - Organizing Your Estate

As we start 2017 and start making our New Years resolutions why don't you make a resolution to get your life organized!  Do something for your family and yourself. 

No - I am not talking about organizing your closet (though I do love that topic!). I am talking about organizing your life. I am talking about organizing all of your important papers and your not so important papers.

Yes - you should have a will and a living will. Everyone should have one. It's not just for "old" people. If you have a family or any possessions you need to protect yourself. Let your fingers do the walking and find an attorney to help you will all of those important details.

But - even more importantly there are those hundreds of details that seem to fall through the cracks for most people.

Do you know where all of your important documents are?  Does your spouse or partner know where they are? 

Do you have a readily available list of all of your financial accounts?  Do you have the contact information for your financial advisors, bankers, lawyer and other people - all in one easy to grab piece of paper (or computer file)?

Do you have a list of all of your assets?

Do you have a list of all of your insurance providers? Health, vehicle, life, homeowners....?

Do you have a list of all of your health care providers and your medical information?  

Do you have a list of ..... anything?

What would happen in an emergency if you were not able to tell your spouse/partner where you put all of this information. Panic would set in. Everyone would be scrambling looking all over the house to find it. And in the case of the death of a loved one the extra stress would be overwhelming.

Take a few hours and organize your life - for the sake of your family.
