Diving into the heart of planning, Annette presents an easy way to begin to map out a life and estate plan. 1. Outline your list of support people, known as your Circle of Care: List the important people in your life who fulfill specific roles in your life and those of your disabled person. 2. Gather all of your stuff and identify: What do I own? Where are my assets, both tangible and digital? What are my debts? What types of work benefits do I need to explore more like long-term care insurance? 3. Find an estate planning attorney and financial planner who understand your family and have special needs planning experience.
