    		Everyone, both young and old, needs an estate plan.  Your life circumstances can change in an instant! If they do, are you prepared?   Who will pay your bills if you can't?  And if you pass away, how will your estate be divided amongst your heirs? In this session, you'll learn about Wills and trusts and the difference between the two documents.  You'll also learn about important estate planning documents like powers of attorney (POA) and healthcare directives that you can create to make sure your wishes are met.

Whether you are new to trusts or even understand them well, you'll walk away understanding how to use these powerful planning tools to your advantage.

    June 25, 6:00-7:30 pm Attorney Lynda Lee Arnold

    		Connecticut has the second-highest cost of long-term care in the nation. So, unless you are planning to leave the state, you need to protect yourself and your retirement assets from long-term care costs. You’ll learn about some new ways to do this. You’ll also get answers to questions like: Should you give your home to your children? How can you get assistance paying for a nursing home and home care? What is the 5-year look back? Is long-term care insurance a good idea? If you know the rules and plan ahead you can still protect your hard-earned assets.
