The holidays are a time for family, and for some, for the first time since the pandemic, multigenerational gatherings, which makes them the ideal time to talk with your family about your estate plan. In this episode of Edelman Financial Engines’ Everyday Wealth™, Jean and wealth planner Andy Smith discuss how to broach the topic of estate planning – from what to say to who to say it to – and how a planner could make those conversations a lot easier. Later in the episode, Jean interviews Dr. Karl Pillemer, one of America’s leading family sociologists and researchers on aging, on family estrangement and how to navigate difficult conversations with family members during the holidays.



Ms. Chatzky receives cash compensation for acting as hosts of the Everyday Wealth radio show and podcast and for related activities and therefore has an incentive to endorse Edelman Financial Engines and its planners.  That compensation is a fixed sum paid on an annual basis; and reimbursement for certain expenses.  The amount paid each year does not vary, is not based on show content or any results-dependent factors (e.g., popularity of the show).

This show is pre-recorded, and any callers are prescreened.
