Book

Divorce is Worse Than Death

Excerpt from the book: “Tatyana Bunich of Financial 1 Wealth Management Group advocates scheduling a meeting with a financial advisor with post-divorce finance experience once the divorce is final. She recommends waiting because up until then the partners arc either working between themselves or are working with their lawyer or mediator to assist them with developing a final settlement. A financial advisor can assess the post-divorce financial status of the new divorcee to protect against possible tax issues after settlement and review financial accounts, retirement plans, and current life insurance policies to ensure the ex is no longer a beneficiary or joint owner on any accounts. If there are children, it is also important to discuss the creation of a will and last testament to protect estate inheritance especially in the case of remarriage.”

Millennials are doing things differently from past generations, especially when it comes to their cash.
According to a study by Bank of America, 28 percent of millennial couples are more inclined to keep finances separate than older generations, and when considering starting a family, finances have a major impact.
Not only that, but 25 percent of millennials polled in the BofA survey noted that finances are a top source of tension in their household, which may be one reason millennial couples are keeping some of their assets separate when getting married.
