Bøker av Cindy Arledge

Would you invest a few hours of time to make life easier for your family during life's most challenging moments? When Cindy Arledge's ex-husband had a stroke, it was the worst day of her daughters' lives. In the midst of their already busy schedules, her two adult daughters suddenly became informal (unpaid) caregivers for their dad. Without warning or preparation, they found themselves making life and death decisions for him. Over the following months, they managed their father's company, paid his bills, communicated with his customers, advisors, insurance company and a host of medical professionals while he regained his strength. In addition to juggling time between caregiving duties and their own family needs, Cindy's daughters were responsible for their dad's herd of cattle in a neighboring state. Be Ready. Life Happens.

It's time to discover what you don't know to protect your family's future...We are in the midst of the greatest wealth transfer in the history of mankind. Sadly, up to 90% of these transfers will fail-when failure is measured by loss of assets, destroyed relationships, and unnecessary upheaval for heirs. The majority of these failures are caused by unprepared heirs who don't communicate or trust each other. This makes total sense, because until now, the missing link that prevents the two most common reasons for inheritance failure has been reserved for ultra-high-net-worth families. Most family leaders recognize the potential for drama, but don't know there is a plan they can implement to protect their family.I know, because my family was destroyed after my parents passed away in 2005.

Had my parents had access to the information contained in this book, it could have saved our family.In CRACKING the Inheritance Code, you will discover the real problem and why traditional planning isn't enough to protect your family, and the real solution to protect your family's future.
