This summer started one of my greatest journeys ever: get my elders’ finances in check. 😮‍💨

Y’all. I’m already exhausted. It’s a lot. 🥲 I know it is.

Because it’s not just financials you’re sorting through. You’re working through cultural customs and interpersonal dynamics and traumatic histories.

But if it’s important for you that your old people live with as much dignity as possible, the questions have to be asked.

The arguments have to be had. The fights have to be fought.

Because on the other side of your avoidance is their loss. Conversations are being had about extracting your assets. You’ve GOT to fight back.

This has been a HUGE push in my membership this year. First, get your house in order and then look to your next two generations.

Do the work EARLY and under as little stress as possible. Nothing will be fully air tight, but even a basic will erases like 90% of the hurdles.

Are you prepared? Are they?
