Book Details

Estate Planning is Not for Idiots or Dummies

Take an entertaining tour through the intricacies of estate planning with a seasoned lawyer who has practiced estate planning and trust law since 1983. Though the concepts shared are as serious as a heart attack, they are expressed in a way that is easy to read and understand. So bring along your sense of humor and your curiosity to learn about how you can create positive outcomes in potentially dark times for you and your loved ones. Join the author on a “road trip” that will help you find the peace of mind that comes from knowing you have done all you can do to prepare for some inevitable challenges that are waiting down the line.

 

Book Excerpt


If you are an idiot or a dummy, this book is not for you.

Put it down.
 
Back away.
 
Whatever you do, DON’T TURN THE PAGE.  If you do, you will run the risk of discovering simple steps you can take right now that will make things much easier on yourself and your loved ones when inevitable bad things happen down the line.  Better yet, you could learn a thing or two about creating and building on desirable outcomes when everything is going well.

Between us, I doubt that you are an idiot or a dummy.  The fact that you picked up this book in the first place is a very good sign.  But if I am wrong about you, then go back to licking your elbows or whatever you were doing a minute ago.  Now SHOO!

If you tried to lick your elbow after reading that last paragraph, trust me:  this book is not for you.  You can keep reading if you like, but your time might be better spent changing a lightbulb with three of your best friends.

The rest of you may now turn the page.
