The End of Life Planning Notebook Some people believe they don't need an end-of-life plan because they don't have much in the way of personal or financial assets. However, money and possessions are not the only reason to create a plan your family can follow in the event of your passing. If you or a loved one own a home, have a family, care for a child with special needs, or are simply concerned about dementia or the inability to communicate with family at an old age - these are all good reasons to create and maintain an end-of-life plan. End of life planning is a task people often put off. However, those who die without their affairs in order risk leaving their loved ones with significant problems, including funeral expenses, medical debts, legal expenses, tax obligations, and severe strain and family disputes. While 70% of men and women agree that everyone should have an end-of-life plan before the age of 60, only 43% actually do. Start planning today!
