The Chris Berry Show


Jun 20, 2019

What will your – or your loved one’s – elder care journey look like?

It’s better to be educated and prepared than realize what you need when it’s too late. There are three primary ways to utilize long-term health insurance to pay for long-term care and strategic ways to leverage IRA money and assets so your hard-earned money is protected and able to outlive you.

In this episode of The Chris Berry Show, I’ll talk about long-term care strategies and Mayor Sharp will discuss what sets SKLD apart and what exciting innovations are on the horizon to better support elders.

In this episode, you’ll learn...

Q&A

In each episode, I take questions from listeners. If you have any questions that you want answered, feel free to email us at askchris@thechrisberryshow.com. Here are the questions I covered in this episode:

  • Simon asked: “How do I put my paid-off property into a trust?”
  • Another listener asked: “My mother has dementia, will her estate planning attorney answer my questions about the successor trustee and financial power of attorney?”
  • Sandy asked: “How do I get a POA for my mother who passed away? Her previous POA was my sister and she, too, has passed.”
  • Rick asked: “I wish to consolidate 5 mutual funds that are currently in my trust into IRAs to reduce work for my trustees upon my death. How should I do this?”
  • Catherine asked: “I’m a single mom with two minors. Who should I name as the beneficiary of my retirement account?”
