Every day, more of us Baby Boomers are hitting 65 and beyond. If you haven’t started planning for your senior years yet, it’s time. I know it can feel overwhelming but remember this: failing to plan is planning to fail. My goal is to help you avoid that. I also want you to avoid some of the biggest estate planning boo-boos which come from taking short cuts – short cuts that backfire on you, your family and your estate – absolutely not what you intend.


And if you’re the adult child of a Boomer who’s stepped into the caregiver role — this space is for you, too. As an estate planning and elder law attorney here in Tennessee, I see far too many families unprepared for the legal and financial twists that come with aging. That’s why I created this show: to give you a head start and a little peace of mind.


Today, we’re going to talk about some common shortcuts people take when they think they’re planning wisely, saving steps, time and money — but in the long run these shortcuts often backfire in big, painful ways. I see them all the time, and I want you to avoid them. I also want you to avoid some of the biggest estate planning boo-boos which come from taking short cuts – short cuts that backfire on you, your family and your estate – absolutely not what you intend.


So, follow along with me on Episode 74 of Boomer Time. I promise you’ll leave with some important takeaways — and maybe a few “aha” moments about choices you or a loved one may have made.
