About 70% of people who reach 65 will need long-term care at some point. πŸ“Š
Seventy percent isn't a risk. It's a planning requirement.

We insure our homes against fire at a much lower likelihood and never question it. But long-term care β€” the most likely major expense of later life β€” is the one almost nobody plans for. We think it's because a house fire happens to you. Needing care feels like something you'd be admitting. πŸ’™

The statistic doesn't care how it feels, though. It's still 70%.
This week we're pricing it out.

Week one, in one place. πŸ“‹
βœ” Florida's probate attorney fee runs about 3% between $100K and $1M β€” on the gross, not the equity βœ” The personal representative gets a similar commission. Two fees, not one βœ” Both get paid before the beneficiaries βœ” The schedule is negotiable, and your attorney must tell you that in writing βœ” A $99 will is a fine document and a rough process βœ” AI writes a gorgeous trust and sometimes invents the statute

Every one of these is knowable in advance and expensive after the fact.
Next week: the biggest number in this whole campaign. Long-term care.

What AI hallucination is, and why it's a specific hazard in estate planning.

Last year people wrote their own wills with a template. This year they're using AI. And honestly? It writes beautifully. ✍ That's the problem. [ Read entire article: https://www.legallyremote.com/thegameplan/ai-hallucinationnbsp-what-it-is-and-why-it-can-be-troublesome-when-planning-your-estate ]

AI can produce a trust document with perfect formatting, total confidence, and a Florida statute citation that looks completely real. Sometimes it is real. Sometimes the statute was repealed. Sometimes it never existed at all. πŸ‘» And there's no way to tell by looking. The wrong answer and the right answer are formatted identically.

We're not anti-AI β€” we use it too. Just use it to write your questions, not your documents. πŸ™

$99. Twenty minutes. Done forever. βœ…

DIY wills have a genuinely great pitch. And the document itself is usually fine! The trouble is ex*****on.

Florida is picky about formalities β€” witnesses, notarization, the self-proving affidavit, the exact language a power of attorney needs before a bank will honor it.

A will that's correct in substance but wrong in procedure isn't a will. It's evidence. πŸ“„ And you find out at the exact moment the one person who could have fixed it isn't around to fix it.

Yesterday: Florida's probate attorney fee runs about 3%.
Today: there are two 3% fees. 😳

The personal representative β€” usually one of the kids β€” is entitled to a commission under a similar schedule.

On a $650,000 estate, that's roughly $19,500 for the attorney and roughly $19,500 for the personal representative. About $39,000 total, before anyone disagrees about anything. And those fees get paid before the beneficiaries get anything.

Nobody is doing anything wrong. That's just what the schedule says. Which is exactly why it's worth planning around it.
