The lack of organizational preparedness was a common trend he found in most clients. In visiting with other financial professionals, he found that this was a very widespread problem. Most people had scattered records on part of their lives, but rarely did anyone have a complete central record system along with instructions to be followed for most of life's unexpected happenings.

This book is intended to become the foundation upon which to build preparedness for all of life's happenings both planned and unexpected.
