Estate Planning

What I’ve learned is that backpacking isn’t about adding comfortable, luxurious items to my pack. It’s about figuring out what you can remove without sacrificing the experience. Nobody reaches mile 15 wishing they had packed more stuff. The biggest gains usually come from eliminating the things that were weighing me down in the first place.
Financial planning tends to work the same way. When we’re building wealth, most of our focus is on accumulation. We spend decades adding. More savings, more investments, and more retirement accounts. And at some point, we’ve added so much that we’re not quite sure what’s in our “pack.”
