12 Things To Do In 2013- Estate Planning Myths

12 Things to do in 2013- #9 -Laurie Valentine

Don't believe these estate planning myths: 

-You don’t need a Will if you and your spouse own everything in joint names.

-It is best to leave everything to your children, rather than make provision for both your children and  
 grandchildren in your estate plan.

-Creating an estate plan that “avoids” probate will avoid death taxes.

-Only wealthy people include gifts to charitable organizations in their estate plan.

-Your spouse has authority to deal with all of your jointly-owned assets if you become incapacitated.

To dispel these myths and learn how to create an estate plan that protects your family and allows you to be a wise steward of all with which God has blessed you go to www.kentuckybaptistfoundation.org/pg
