003 Bert Martinez from Money for Lunch Interviews Nicole Wipp

I get quizzed by Bert Martinez … can I handle the pressure ;)?

The tables are turned – I get interviewed by popular blog and radio show host Bert Martinez of Money for Lunch. Bert asks me some great questions (and I hope gets some great answers!). Here’s what’s in this episode:

• We discuss why people don’t like to discuss death and health care crisis issues, and yet why we have to (financial and personal disaster, most importantly!)
• Bert asks me what the difference is between elder law and estate planning
• He asks me about the value of a will
• We discuss the “right age” to start talking about these things
• He asks me why planning for long term care is important
• We discuss the cost of long term care and the repercussions of failing to plan for it (I think he was surprised)
• Bert realizes his own estate plan is completely out-of-date!

Bert is about to release his new book, Created to Succeed.  Check it out!
