What Real Client Meetings Can Teach Us About Farm Estate Planning (Ep. 374)

What Real Client Meetings Can Teach Us About Farm Estate Planning (Ep. 374)2 Oct26 min

Real meetings, real numbers, real lessons. Mary Jo recaps recent client meetings — from a 64 and 65-year-old couple buying land for their boys, to a 22-year-old starting with a $4,000 policy, to $100,000+ policies.

You'll hear why leaving land without a plan leaves debt + operating expenses to the kids, why helping one child and not the other creates future fights, why divided interest beats undivided interest, how two guys who quit drinking turned their financial lives around, how a 50s entrepreneur beat Parkinson's Law with '08-'09 rentals, storage units and businesses, and why a timber farm shrank from 10,000+ acres by selling land to solve problems.

It doesn't matter where you start — $4,000 or $100,000 — just get started.
