Financial Goals for 2009 - #8

In an earlier post, I listed all of our financial goals for 2009. Now, here's more on our plan to make a will.

8. Make a Will

Can you believe our daughter is almost 2 years old and we still have no will???

The main thing holding us up on the will is choosing a guardian for our kid(s). Its such a huge thing to ask someone.

And then on top of that, we need to understand the options for financially caring for our kids if something happens to us, via our guardian, a trust, and/or some other way. We want to make sure we understand all the options and getting something in place. With a second child on the way, we can't procrastinate on this any longer.

We signed up for the prepaid legal plan benefit at work so that we wouldn't have to find a lawyer on our own. So, all we have to do is make some decisions and then make that phone call!
