it’s a great way to make sure your loved ones know what to do in case of an emergency.

If you’re inquire - or worse - you’ll want a family member or an executor to be able to locate your financial and personal information, such as estate paperwork or health information, quickly and with the least amount of hassle possible.
Being prepared can help avoid potential delays or confusion during stressful times. Having important paperwork in order simplifies things for your loved ones or your executor, can help ensure that nothing gets overlooked.
The best part is that it doesn’t take much work to organize your documents. Simply creating special binders or folders and keeping it in a safe place will do the trick.
You just have to make sure you tell your loved ones or your executor where they can find it.
