Motley Fool features a great article on making sure you have your financial, medical, and personal papers in order.
God forbid your life ends prematurely. But would your loved ones have a clue as to what your financial or medical wishes are? Of if you become incapacitated for awhile, who is going to handle your affairs?
Of the listed ten, I admit, I only have about half of my papers on order.
The list includes the predictable (will, living will, credit reports) to the “I hadn’t really thought of that” (health-care proxy, power of attorney, financial manifesto for couples).
And for good measure, a list of things you want to do for life.
