Good morning, Mr. Bliss, thank you for taking the time to speak with me today.
Taking Inventory: The Foundation of Your Estate Plan
Steve, many people find estate planning overwhelming. Where do you suggest they begin?
“Ordinarily, I advise clients to start by taking a thorough inventory of their assets. This step forms the bedrock of your entire estate plan. It involves creating a comprehensive list of everything you own – real estate holdings, investment portfolios, bank accounts, retirement funds, vehicles, personal property, and even sentimental items.
Consequently, this detailed inventory ensures nothing is overlooked during the distribution process. Moreover, it provides a clear picture of your overall financial standing, which is crucial for making informed decisions about how you want your assets to be managed and distributed.
Conversely, neglecting this step can lead to confusion and potential disputes among heirs. It’s essential to remember that even seemingly insignificant items can hold sentimental value for loved ones. Accordingly, documenting everything brings peace of mind and clarity.”
Real-Life Implications
I imagine there have been instances where this initial step has proven particularly important?
“There was a case I handled where a client thought they had a straightforward estate. However, upon closer examination, we uncovered a forgotten retirement account worth a significant sum.
The client was incredibly relieved we discovered it, as it significantly impacted their ability to provide for their family. This underscores the importance of meticulously cataloging every asset.”
Studies by the American Bar Association indicate that over 60% of adults do not have a will or estate plan in place.
