DISCUSSING INHERITANCE WITH YOUR CHILDREN
John Bailey, CFP® - Senior Vice President & Wealth Management Advisor with Central Trust Company

You’ve worked hard to accumulate an estate that you hope to pass on to your children, but have you talked
with them about it? Are you delaying the conversation because you’re concerned that talking with your adult
children about your plans for their inheritance will incite family drama?
Many parents face this dilemma; however, I can assure you that delaying or avoiding the conversation will only create more
anxiety, tension, and havoc. Most parents want their assets, and more importantly their family relationships, to be preserved
after they’re gone. The best way to do this is to have the inheritance talk with your children in advance.

HOW TO DETERMINE IF A
FINANCIAL ADVOCATE IS RIGHT FOR YOU
Regardless of health status, many people need assistance with managing money as they get older.
Here’s how to develop a financial plan and choose a financial advocate.
What is a financial advocate? A financial advocate is someone you choose to manage money matters, including
paying bills, managing property, and handling taxes. A financial advocate may be your spouse, adult child, close friend,
or paid professional. It’s important to choose someone trustworthy, as they will have a say over your finances. You
should have an advocate who understands what matters to you and who will step in if necessary.
Steps to financial advocacy
The sooner you can plan for the future, the better. A popular age to come up with a financial advocacy plan is
around age 65, but don’t worry if you’re past that age. No matter where you are in the planning process, here are a
few steps to implementing a financial advocacy plan.
