Estate planning is one of those topics that comes to mind and quickly gets filed in the "important but not right now" mental file. The conversation can be overwhelming and complex making it even more unattractive.

We tell ourselves lies to validate our avoidance of the topic, such as: "I don't have anything." "I will be dead so what does it matter?" "My kids can fight it out." The reality is that we all have something to plan for and it's time to start the conversation.

This book will give the reader a basic understanding of estate planning concepts. Not every section will apply to every person, but every person can find a section that applies to them.
