Make sure you have a Will or
Trust. A Will or Trust outlines your
wishes for your spouse, children,
and property after you die. In the
State of Texas if you do not have
this, the state will do it for you.
Most of us wish to make those deci-
sions for ourselves.
Consider life insurance. If you
have a family, especially one with
dependent children, you may want
to consider purchasing life insurance.
There are multiple options and if the
budget is a concern, term insurance
can be inexpensive. It is important that
you plan for death and the care of the
loved ones you leave behind.
These are just a few considerations to
get you “thinking” about your future
wishes. Your plan should include living
wills, medical power of attorneys, ad-
vance healthcare directives, and living
trusts. By not procrastinating and plan-
ning ahead to ensure that your affairs
are in proper order, you are leaving a
last gift to your loved ones.
If we can ever assist you in any way, it would be our pleasure to serve you.
