Two weeks ago, I sat down with my parents to talk about their finances. Not because I’m nosy, but because I’ve seen what happens when families avoid this conversation — it gets messy, fast. Here’s the awkward truth: they don’t have a will. No clear plan for their house, their savings, or even how they want their medical care handled if something happens. And I get it — no one wants to think about the end. But avoiding it doesn’t make the problem disappear. I’ve watched friends lose half their inheritance to legal fees and taxes because “we’ll figure it out later” turned into “the state figured it out for us.” So we laid it all out: assets, debts, insurance, the house. We even agreed to bring in an estate planner. It wasn’t an easy conversation, but now there’s a plan. And you know what? That plan protects more than money — it protects relationships. If your parents are still healthy and sharp, talk to them now. Set up the paperwork. Save your family from future fights and unnecessary bills. The best gift you can give your kids isn’t cash — it’s clarity. #Finance #MakeMoney #FamilyWealth
