Of course it’s a balance for me of being pragmatic and being prepared so that my loved ones don’t have to go through so much hardship, at least financially, after I’m gone. I have a simple bucket list that includes riding around in the local marina in a Duffy boat as often as I can and eating Sunday brunch with my family at Cabo Wabo in Huntington Beach where I currently live and continuing to go out to lunch with my old work buddies and friends. I wish you luck as well!

I hear you on the cleaning out stuff so the kids don’t have to do it. I’m also trying to walk through the finances with on of my daughters so she is prepared if I can’t handle my own finances and of course, how to help with the estate plan afterwards.
