SCRIPT

 

Most people who have a will think their estate is covered. It is not, because of one thing they almost certainly never updated: their beneficiary designations.

Your 401(k), your IRA, your life insurance, they all transfer to whoever is named on a form you filled out when you first opened the account. That form overrides your will completely. Legally. Permanently.

So if you named your ex-spouse in 2009 and you never changed it, your ex-spouse gets the account. Your will says something different? Irrelevant. The beneficiary form wins every single time.

Before you do anything else today, log into every retirement account and insurance policy you own and verify who is listed as your primary and contingent beneficiary. Five minutes. Could save your family hundreds of thousands of dollars in misdirected assets.

If you want to make sure your entire financial picture is as organized as it should be, the link in my bio is how you book a complimentary review with our team.
