Which is why in this episode of Life, Loss and Legacy, I've asked Perry Adolphus to come on and discuss what that healthier groove can involve.

11. Tax & Estates with Phil Seath & Daniel Vicino
Life, Loss and Legacy - A PlanningSolo Podcast
Finalising an estate is both emotionally and structurally complex. And one of the key complexities executors (and beneficiaries) will need to wrestle with is how it's all affected by tax. This is a tough topic - it can be dry, remote and blindingly difficult for a layperson to come to grips with. Which is why I've invited Daniel Vicino and Phil Seath - CPAs from in Melbourne - to come on the podcast and take us through some of the (many) considerations executors will need to work with. We discuss: Why it's so important to find the right adviser to help you navigate...

8. The Ins and Outs of Life Insurance with Stephen Price
Life, Loss and Legacy - A PlanningSolo Podcast
It's not at all pleasant, but the topic of life insurance was always going to be something I had to cover in this podcast series. Not only because it's complicated, abstract and important - but also because responsible people have life insurance in place. And when they pass away, the people they leave behind need to untangle what it all means. Which is why I've asked Stephen Price, of Integer Financial, to come on and take us through the ins and outs of life insurance. Stephen's an insurance specialist with deep expertise in these critically important policies. We discuss: ...
