 Review your will for updates at least once every two years and after any major life-changing events like a marriage, divorce, or the birth of a child. Life is constantly changing, and your assets and wishes are likely to change from year to year, too. 

 Estate planning isn’t only for the rich. Without a plan in place, settling your affairs after you go could have a long-lasting—and costly—impact on your loved ones, even if you don’t have a pricey home, large IRA, or valuable art to pass on 

 Accounts and policies that have designated beneficiaries will pass directly to those people or entities upon your death.
