Find out how to convince your clients that they need to create a Will and Estate Plan – and you both win!
If you are encouraging your clients to make a Will or an Estate Plan, how often have you heard these avoidance statements (aka excuses)?
“I don’t have any valuable assets.”
“I’m too young to make a will.”
“I can’t afford it.”
Let’s look at the reality of these excuses and the subsequent concern for maybe up to 50% or more of your clients. Then we will chat about how your Financial Planning Practice can offer a Will and Estate Planning Service with little setup costs, not a lot of time, AND a great revenue stream to boot!
1. I don’t have any valuable assets
Most Australians are asked to organise their wills around the time they purchase their first home. Considering most Aussies, on average, are 36 years old(i)when they finally put their foot on the property ladder, it would be hard to be convinced that someone at the age of 36 and looking to buy a home would not have any valuable assets.
Assets include cash, property, shares, superannuation, cars, vehicles, furniture etc.
“Smart Investing” recently crunched the numbers as best they could and came up with the following asset averages for Aussies at various ages(ii):
20 – $15,000
30 – $80,000
40 – $249,000
50 – $378,373
60 – $564,558
So for the average person over 20, it would appear there is something of value to leave behind to your loved ones.
2. I’m too young to make a will.
See answer to 1.
3. I can’t afford it.
This may be due to the lack of knowledge and understanding about how much a Will and Estate Plan actually cost. And sure, the more complicated your situation, the more expensive this may be. However, as you are in the financial planning sector, we all know that providing clear and legal directions after your passing is certainly a major consideration for your financial planning clients.
