Estate Planning: Plan the Legacy You Want To Leave Behind
Building a nest egg is not only about providing for yourself; many people also desire to make sure that their heirs are provided for as well. Proper estate planning ensures that not only do your assets go to whom you want them to, but also that those individuals are left with as little tax burden as possible.
