Very clear with tons of information, especially about wills and how to help the family in the future.” --Sally Jessy Raphael, Emmy Award-winning talk show host “This book is a must read for smart women (and men). The author’s humorous writing style gets you up to speed painlessly on estate planning essentials--so your children have guardians, so you avoid taxes, and so your money and other assets go to the right people. Don’t have a will, trust, living will, or durable powers of attorney? Get them, immediately after reading this book.” --Greg Karp, syndicated personal finance journalist and author of Living Rich by Spending Smart Too many women still haven’t taken control of what will happen to their wealth and their assets. If you don’t plan, the government will decide who’ll act for you when you’re sick...who’ll manage your estate when you die...who’ll get everything you’ve worked for. Everyone needs to plan, but women face unique issues that are often ignored in “typical” discussions of estate planning. Smart Women Protect Their Assets offers the specific guidance women need to safeguard their futures and control where their assets will go. Leading estate planner Wynne A. Whitman offers smart, up-to-date, and easy-to-use advice for the scenarios millions of women will face. You’ll discover how to protect children of a previous marriage...give gifts the right way...do the easy planning that may save you nearly a million dollars...get the Living Will and Power of Attorney you simply must have...and a whole lot more. Written by a woman for women, this is a quick, focused, engaging, and practical book packed with simple checklists and “what-to-do-next” advice: information every woman can act on, right now. Are you risking everything? What you could lose if you don’t start planning now How to choose the right estate planning instruments for your situation Wills, trusts, and “fancier” options: Which are right for you and those you care about? What if you get sick and can’t act for yourself? Make sure the right person is there to make the right decisions How to provide peace of mind to your loved ones Get organized and tell your loved ones exactly what you want How to discuss life’s toughest topics Bringing it up with your husband, partner, or significant other
