Retirement Planning and Financial Expert, Brian Fricke, Offers Four Must Have’s For Proper Estate Planning

Brian Fricke, financial and retirement planning expert, publishes article giving four examples of imperative estate documents that every family should have in place.

Orlando, Fla. – October 7, 2010 – Brian Fricke, CFP founder of Financial Management Concepts and the author of “Worry Free Retirement,” recently published an article on his website titled “Four Must Have’s For Proper Estate Planning” where he gives four must have basic documents that should be put into place as soon as possible.

“Regardless of how old you are, everyone of legal age should have these basic documents in place; a will, a durable power of attorney, a health care power of attorney and a living will,” wrote Brian Fricke.

The article goes on to give examples of each.  In conclusion, Brian writes, “DO NOT do this on your own. There are numerous websites and books and fill in the blank forms available all over the place – but if you make even a small mistake, your heirs may end up paying legal fees and court costs that far exceed the price you would have paid to have an attorney do it right first time.”
