Digital Assets, Pets, and Guns

It is axiomatic that estate and financial planners need to address all of a client’s assets. During this session we will discuss three areas that may lead to significant problems and be difficult to handle without proper planning.

Digital Assets: McAfee's global study in 2014 presented compelling evidence that our digital assets now have significant value, both emotionally and financially. The survey revealed the average perceived value of digital assets for a person living the United States is $54,722.

Pets: The number of individuals who own animals is staggering. As many as 56.7 million households in the United States own dogs and 45.3 million own cats. It is not surprising that a pet owner often wants to assure that his or her trusted companion is well-cared for after the owner’s death.

Guns: A 2006 Gallup Poll reported that 43% of Americans keep a gun in their home. Another study, conducted by the Bureau of Justice Statistics, found that 240,000 machine guns are registered with the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.
