Jay Abolofia Demo's MaxiFi's New Powerful Tools For Estate Planning

from Economics Matters with Laurence Kotlikoff · host Economics Matters

Economics PhD, CFP, President of Lyon Financial Planning, Jay Abolofia shows you how to do estate planning using MaxiFi Planner's new spending cap and other unique features. If you're a MaxiFi Planner user, you already know and trust Jay. Jay provides bi-monthly MaxiFi office hours and uses MaxiFi in his own financial planning practice. Jay also provides a terrific co-piloting service for MaxiFi users who like to have a true expert review their use of the tool. Jay is one of the best teachers I've yet encountered and I've met thousands. This podcast is typical of his ability to convey important information in clear, concise, and actionable terms. Please listen/watch Jay and I discuss MaxiFi's new estate planning capacities. This discussion is NOT about trust, wills, probate, living wills, powers of attorney, or any of other legal estate issues. Nor are we focused on reducing federal or state estate taxes. This podcast is about what we all do -- rich or poor, namely plan, either explicitly or by default, to leave assets to our heirs. Whether you have a billion dollars or are living on the margin, you have assets, be it just a house, a car, or furniture that you'll be passing on if you pass. MaxiFi shows you your contingent estates -- what you'll bequeath depending on when you die. Many MaxiFi users have significant means -- so many resources that they aren't able or interested in spending everything they spend on a safe basis. MaxiFi's new spending limit lets them tell the program not to spend beyond what they wish in any future year. By setting the spending cap or using other features in the tool that Jay describes, well-off and, indeed, all users can see the trade off between spending more on themselves and leaving more for their heirs.
