Have you ever wondered if there are any legal documents you should already have prepared just in case?
The undeniable truth is that all of us are aging, and as we reach the point of retirement, we should already be preparing certain legal documents as soon as possible. Not only will they end up saving you a lot of hassle, time, and money when you are even an older senior, but they will also come in handy if something happens to you out of the blue. After all, despite it being hard to admit sometimes, we are all aging, and having all these legal documents on hand will ensure we have something less to stress over.
Not to mention, having these important legal documents done will also make sure that you are in full control of your life. From maternal wishes to what will happen to your assets after you pass, these will all insure that you will be given autonomy and that all that you desire to happen is going to be done according to your wishes.
This can both bring you a sense of relief and relaxation that you wouldn’t get if you ended up not feeling well and having to deal with the stress of all of this too, but it will also help your loved ones in case the worst happens.
In the end, having these legal documents prepared will end up being beneficial no matter if they end up being used or not, since life is unpredictable.

How do I get copies of the 5 documents/forms I need?
For our 1st anniversary, my Husband took me to a Funeral home and we made arrangements for our deaths. Everything was set up except for what we would wear and the flowers. Everything went on a payment plan and when that was paid for, the interest kept accumulating – so our funeral is paid in full. Then our 2nd anniversary, we bought burial plots. The 3rd year we bought a marker, monument, with all the information, except date of death, the next year we got a Trust made out. Every year thereafter, we update it.
