Learn why it’s never too early to start estate planning from the tragic story of John’s young cousin. Don’t miss out on securing your family’s financial future!
Hey, everyone! Welcome to our latest blog post for #ThoughtfulThursday.
Today, we bring you a compelling video, “What Millennials Should Know.”
📜 Estate planning isn’t just for retirees or the silver-haired among us. This video unravels the story of John’s cousin, a promising young business owner.
Eric was a sharp-minded entrepreneur, the brains behind a flourishing IT consultancy firm. His innovation drove the business to become a significant player in the local tech industry. Eric reveled in the now, solving problems with code, not foreseeing the need to pen down a will. His mantra was, “Let’s tackle tomorrow’s bugs tomorrow.”
Tragedy struck when Eric was involved in a fatal car accident, leaving behind a legacy enveloped in legal ambiguity. The lack of a will sent his family spiraling into a legal quagmire as they battled with authorities to retain control over the business Eric had so passionately built.
Each court hearing drained their resources while diminishing the firm’s reputation, a bitter reality that underscored the necessity of a will, ensuring not just the seamless transition of assets, but the preservation of a loved one’s life’s work.

Millennials, the generation that’s often seen with a Starbucks cup in one hand and a smartphone in the other, are not typically who come to mind when you think of estate planning. After all, between the student loans, avocado toasts, and the latest iPhone upgrades, what estate is there to plan?
Jokes aside, you are at a stage in life where adulthood kicks into high gear—marriage, babies, and even becoming the unexpected caretaker of a fur baby or two. Despite being digital ninjas, when it comes to leaving a digital legacy or a plan for Fido, many millennials have yet to draft that all-so-serious document called a will.
The misconception? That estate planning is solely the realm of the elderly or the ultra-wealthy.
Now, let’s set the record straight – a will is not a grim reaper’s RSVP, but a responsible, adult-ish way to ensure your assets (yes, even your modest comic book collection or your grandma’s heirloom ring) go to the people you want, and not decided by some stern-faced judge in a courtroom.
And let’s not forget the online assets; do you really want your parents stumbling upon your secret meme stash or, worse, your ‘finsta’?
So, millennials, while immortality runs strong in your veins and your digital footprints, it’s about time to face the adulting music.
Putting a will in place is making sure your legacy, no matter how big or small, quirky or mundane, is passed on your way, hashtagging it with your personal touch.
