I think a lot of it is because people think that you have to be old to have a will.

So there's lots of people who don't have a will because they don't think they're old enough.

And apparently about 50% of those people are over the age of 50.

I think the other thing is also that people don't like to think about their own demise.

And so it's a scary thing.

It's emotional.

They have to think about not just their wealth, but also their children, their families, what happens next.

And that can be terrifying for people to think about.

I think just do it.

I mean, any one of us at any time could have something go wrong and thankfully we don't know when that's going to be.

But don't think that you're too young to have a will or powers of attorney because any one of us at any time.
