By: SPARQ STREET Communications May is LEAVE A LEGACY™ (http://www.leavealegacy.ca/) There is a growing list of tools and resources to help people ease into the process of planning for their estates across North America, especially through charitable organizations. One of Jane’s favorites is called Leave a Legacy, designed to encourage people to consider leaving a legacy in a manner they might not have thought of before today. Visit their website at www.leavealegacy.ca for more information. Here are Jane’s Top 7 Tips to consider when planning to leave your legacy: 1. Prepare a will - and ensure you have confirmed with your executor that they want the job 2. Leave a gift – your legacy will carry on through the programs and services of your favorite charity or organization 3. Be specific about the gift you want to leave – note who gets what and why 4. Consider assets – leaving a gift from your estate can offset taxes your estate would pay anyway 5. Leave your Existing life insurance as a legacy – just change the beneficiary 6. Talk to your loved ones - this is the most important tip as they need to understand your wishes 7. Keep the conversation going – while you’re at it makes sure your family knows your final wishes/ preferences and document them so everything is in one place and clearly noted (or notarized) To learn more about how you might consider incorporating this into your estate planning or to find out more about activities taking place in your community this month, contact Jane: www.janeblaufus.com @janeblaufus To book Jane for an interview or to provide commentary on financial, family or pre-planning topics, please contact: Rania Walker Phone: 416-258-8953 rania@sparqstreet.com @raniaspeaks ### Jane Blaufus is an Author, Professional Speaker and Wealth Coach.
