Listen "Steps to Protecting a Child with Disabilities"
Episode Synopsis
The cost of raising a child to the age of 18, now costs about $300,000.00, and that doesn't even include college! For a child with special needs, that cost can more than triple. Without proper preparation, your child's lifetime needs can quickly outstrip your funds. Peter Richon with Richon Planning recommends to Erin Kennedy that you: -Prepare Your Estate -Coordinate with Government Benefits -Identify a Caregiver -Involve the Family, Seek Professional Guidance You may also consider a special needs trust. Proactive planning means you, your child, and your family will be okay in case the worst happens. And keep in mind, estate planning for a child with disabilities is not a one-time event but an ongoing process. If you'd like to speak with Peter about preparing your estate and your finances, please call (919) 300-5886 or visit www.RichonPlanning.com #SpecialNeedsTrust #WealthManagement #FamilyFinances #Retirement
