Estate Planning Explained: Wills, Trusts, Probate & Common Mistakes

What actually happens to your money when you die? Most people procrastinate estate planning — and many make costly mistakes that create family conflict, probate headaches, unnecessary legal fees, or even send assets to the wrong person.

In this episode, Elliot Omanson and Nathaniel Vossman break down estate planning in plain English: wills, trusts, probate, beneficiary designations, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, and the biggest mistakes families make. They also cover why most people may not need a trust, how outdated beneficiaries can derail your wishes, and the emotional side of inheritance that can quietly tear families apart.

If you want to avoid probate, protect your family, and make sure your assets go where you actually intend, this conversation is a must-watch. Whether you’re married, divorced, have kids, stepchildren, or significant retirement assets, estate planning is something you can’t afford to ignore.
