8 Things To NOT Put In Your Will - Free Whitepaper

Your will may be perfectly written and your estate plan can still fail.


Your will is only one piece of your financial and estate plan. Beneficiary designations, retirement accounts, trusts, insurance and property ownership may follow a completely different set of instructions. Scott put together this complimentary guide to help you uncover potential gaps before they become problems for your family.


Inside, you’ll discover:

  • 8 things that may not belong in your will — and where they may belong instead
  • Why IRA, 401(k), insurance and annuity beneficiary forms matter
  • How a trust can be properly created but still fail to coordinate with your assets
  • Questions to ask about property ownership, incapacity and beneficiary designations
  • The 8-Question Advisor Test to see whether your financial and estate plans are actually working together

As founder of McLean Advisory Group, Scott believes financial planning works best when you can see how the pieces connect rather than looking at each decision in isolation.
