The Importance of Legacy Planning
It is important to determine who will receive your assets and property after you pass. If you do not, your wealth might not be passed on to your appointed beneficiary and its management might be inherited by someone else against your wishes.
Additionally, the amount of time it takes to prepare all the necessary documents needed to formulate a legacy plan can sometimes take months, or years. You do not want your family to have to endure this after you pass. Creating a legacy plan before you die reduces the amount of stress and time that they might experience trying to protect your assets without an established plan to follow.
The Financial Fundamentals of Legacy Planning
The financial fundamentals set up in a legacy plan include but are not limited to the following:
- Wills and testaments
- Estate plans and trusts
- Life insurance
- IRAs
Preserving Your Legacy with a Legacy Plan
As mentioned, a legacy plan does not just touch on estate matters. Memories and traditions are incorporated into the plan as well. Some legacies you can include in your legacy plan are:
- Traditions that inspire you
- Creating a family mission statement
- Annual donations to a charity of your choice
- Digital assets
- Family heirlooms
- Handwritten advice
How Legacy Planning Differs from Estate Planning
While legacy planning does take typical estate planning items into consideration, such as property and assets, it also includes more meaningful familial items. These might include family heirlooms, traditions, and prized possession you want to keep in your family. You will also want to document personal things such as advice, life lessons, and memories, so your family can keep these sentiments alive.
