SO GROWS THE TREE - Creating an Ethical Will: The legacy of your beliefs and values, life lessons an

Product Description

You've been thinking about your legacy. You think it's measured in dollars and cents. It's not. Your real legacy is your beliefs and values,life lessons and hopes for the future.

An Ethical Will is the expression of that legacy. It's a message of what you believe, what you know and what you hope for, and it's meant to be shared with loved ones. The Ethical Will is a tradition that's as relevant today as when it was first practiced 3,500 years ago by Jacob in the Book of Genesis.

In this economy, investments have diminished and many people are questioning whether they will have any wealth to pass on to heirs. The good news is that 77 percent of Baby Boomers and their parents think that the legacy of sharing values and life lessons is very important to receive and provide more important than financial assets and real estate, according to The Allianz Life Insurance Company's American Legacies Study.

An Ethical Will can be used for sharing core beliefs and values, self-reflection, storytelling, reconciliation, identifying future aspirations, estate planning, charitable giving and even making a plan for health care at the end of life.

You ve thought about sharing the lessons of your life but you didn t know where to begin. In SO GROWS THE TREE Creating an Ethical Will you'll learn that when it comes to creating an Ethical Will, the act of watching is more important than the art of writing. What reliable values have you observed throughout your life? What lessons did you learn? What are your aspirations going forward?
