Advanced care planning is not a fun topic to bring up at the dinner table, but what happens if you get seriously ill or injured and can’t speak for yourself?

Do you have someone you trust to speak on your behalf who can easily represent your wishes? Or would your hospital room be fraught with conflict and arguments?

Today, Paul Malley, President of Aging with Dignity, joins us to talk about Five Wishes, a personal guide that encourages people to discuss difficult topics with loved ones and write end of life wishes in your own words.

And while it addresses medical care and treatment, its true gift is that it includes your personal, emotional, and spiritual wishes.

It’s also a legal document in almost every state.

Join us as Paul and I talk about:

• What Five Wishes is and how it goes beyond a living will or advanced medical directive
• How Five Wishes can work with other estate planning documents you might already have
• How it fits into your financial plan

Leaving your legacy for your loved ones is the natural next step in your financial planning process and can give you peace of mind during life’s worst situations. Don’t miss this one.
