Overview:

Your client just informed you of their terminal illness. What do you do from a tax, financial, insurance, investment, retirement, and estate planning point of view? Decisions you make before death lay the groundwork for planning choices after death. Randy Gardner discusses the strategies that will prepare you for the best post-mortem outcomes and help you put your client's mind at ease.

Objectives:

• Determine how to help the client's family through the maze of decisions during this difficult transition • Recognize the opportunities and mistakes that frequently occur during the client's final days • Identify the wealth creation and preservation techniques best suited for your client's situation

Major Topics:
