2. Estate Planning Opportunities for Believers… Salem Nazarene Foundation Presentation March 4, 2007

3. Five Reasons Not to Make a Will 1. The courts can do a better job deciding how to disburse your assets than you can. 2.The courts can choose a better personal representative to handle your estate during probate than you can. 3.The courts can choose a more caring guardian for your minor children than you can. 4. The government will use your estate tax dollars more efficiently than your church or favorite charity would use a charitable bequest. 5. Your grieving loved ones will be better off looking after your affairs without your will.
