Braintree – You know you should do your estate planning. You know it’s important to protect your assets. You hear it on the radio, from friends, at church, in the AARP magazine. You’ll do it…but the summer’s here, it’s raining out, the holidays are coming, it’s snowing out, etc. Before you realize it, another year has passed. You have what I call “tomorrowitis.”
The symptoms include but are not limited to, the ability to procrastinate, illogical reasoning that you’ll actually do it tomorrow, mental paralysis due to anxiety about not having your affairs in order, and the belief that you’ll never have to go to a nursing home. There are remedies to this condition that will give you peace of mind. A check-up with an elder law attorney should be your first course of action. Don’t worry; it will be a painless visit.
If you think you have tomorrowitis or know of someone who suffers from this condition, consider the following:
The best medicine for tomorrowitis is to consult a Medicaid planning attorney. Have your situation looked at and with proper care, you won’t end up in the emergency room in crisis! Plan ahead now, and give yourself and your family peace of mind.
