Whether it’s property loss, incapacitation, or even death, contingency planning for unexpected tragedies can be an uncomfortable fact of life that many families would rather avoid. Some may experience "analysis paralysis," feeling overwhelmed by possible options, or shame that they have not yet compiled their emergency documents. On this week’s episode of Living Not So Fabulously, hosts John and David Auten-Schneider speak with Karen Melo Ticas, CFP at Planning For Good, about how it’s never too early or too difficult to fill out and organize your most important legal documents. Karen reveals why you should prioritize irreplaceable records like birth certificates and property deeds, ensure your beneficiaries are accounted for, and why power of attorney could become crucial in same-sex partnerships.
