My husband and I follow Adam Harding Harding Wealth Both of us have a finance background. Here's a July 8th post from Adam that should be food for thought with regards to estate planning if you are financially stable...

Just wrapped a client meeting.

Female.
73 and healthy.
2 adult kids (age 42 and 47).
13 year old grandson.

Plenty of money for her comfortable retirement.

The conversation was mostly focused on estate planning and encouraging her to feel okay giving money to her adult kids.

Here's what I said to her:

"Think about life 20 years from now. You're 93... Your kids are in their 60s and your grandson is 33.

Then they'll inherit your money. However, at that time everyone is fairly settled into who they are and what they'll become.

Now compare that with a gift today.

Your kids are at a place in their lives where a financial gift can have a trajectory-altering impact. Consider the ripple effects of removing a bit of financial stress from the parents of a 13 year old.

I'll help ensure your needs are met for the rest of your life, but if you see an opportunity to help the people who matter to you, seize it."
