It’s not always a child who is the primary point person {Bethany’s Story}

Here is an example of how we have helped our clients with their financial needs.

Bethany’s Story

My relationship with Bethany began many years ago when she became more actively involved in managing her Aunt’s financial life.  Her Aunt Suzie had the majority of her investments in one hotel stock, and the company had just been purchased by another hotel chain.  Suddenly, her stock was converted to cash, and they were not sure what to do with the funds.

After fleshing out Suzie’s situation, we invested the assets in a manner that would support her during her aging years.  Over time, Suzie’s need for care became progressively more intense until she was in a full-time nursing care facility.  All the while, Bethany worked hard to make sure her Aunt was taken care of, even though it was a difficult task due to her responsibilities to her own family.  We met regularly to make sure all of our goals and tasks were in alignment.

Several years later, Suzie died.  Even though the goal for Suzie’s assets was not explicitly to provide for an inheritance for Bethany, there were enough assets to fully cover Suzie’s needs and leave an inheritance for Bethany.
