This is the place where people feel they’re sorted for the future!
Because they have a will (or plan to get around to it… eventually). They believe they’re prepared, when really they’re floating around aimlessly, missing key documents & information and their access credentials are all over the place.
You think it’s going to take way too much time. You picture yourself locked in a room with piles of paperwork and your laptop like some sort of doomsday prepper, and honestly, who has time for that?
You’re worried it’s going to cost a fortune in legal fees. You imagine endless meetings with solicitors / lawyers in fancy offices with leather chairs, sipping overpriced coffee, while your wallet gets lighter and lighter.
You keep telling yourself you’ll “get around to it later.” Estate planning is on the same list as cleaning the garage or starting that workout routine: “I’ll do it when things calm down” - which, let’s face it, never happens
Is it that you’re also overwhelmed?
Is it all the confusing legal jargon and estate planning documents you keep hearing about?
And the thought of figuring it out sounds like a test you didn’t study for. Healthcare proxy, power of attorney, advance directive - it’s like trying to read the instruction manual for a spaceship when all you want to do is plan for the future.
