About Life Organizer: The Essential Record Keeper

Product Description Greenway, Nancy Randolph Amazon.com Review A Note to Readers from Nancy Randolph Greenway The Life Organizer turned out just as I had hoped! Crisp and clear. Getting organized has never been easier. When I talk about the organizer, I describe it as an estate-planning workbook for absolutely everyone. The usual reply is, "Oh, boy, do I ever need it! And I know a few other people who need one, too!" Twenty- and thirty-somethings are starting jobs, opening accounts, leasing or buying cars and homes, sometimes with the help of parents, taking out loans or paying back student loans ... and often signing papers without a full understanding and then shoving papers into drawers. We have all done that! Forty-somethings are starting to worry about their parents ... do they have enough, will I have to take care of them, have they made plans, will there be anything left for me? Fifty-somethings are starting to worry about themselves and their health. They are reconsidering their investments and health care and they may be caught between the costs of parents, children and retirement. From the sixties on, reality has struck and all issues are on the table, though that drawer may still be full of loose papers. I see Life Organizer as a conversation starter. The narrative helps the reader address pertinent personal questions, clean out that drawer stuffed with important papers, and figure out a few things, like "Oh, my life insurance is taxable?" or "What? My stepchild is not included in my will?" or "Does this mean my son won’t get the farm he’s been running for twenty years?" or "Whoops, I never repaid that student loan?!" I also see the organizer as an open workbook. A place to keep important records, documents, names, and notes. A resource to learn the basics about an estate plan—what's involved, why it matters, what will happen when something happens. And a personal portfolio to review and change as life changes. Which it does. Life Organizer makes a great gift from child to parent and parents to children of all ages. In its clean, crisp appearance and layout, it carries the distinct message that it's time to talk and time to get organized for life. If you're organized for life, you're organized for what comes next. Review "A how-to guide meets filing cabinet…Greenway opens each section by explaining concepts and defining terms in delightfully plain English… The Life Organizer is especially handy because it includes storage space.  You can fill out the worksheets and use the folders to corral all your vital information.  The book even comes with sample worksheets, so you know how to fill them out." -DailyWorth.com, Katie Karlson "Parenting Gem: Was getting organized one of your New Year’s resolutions?...Step-by-step info will help you understand Family & Beneficiaries, Wills, Trusts & Gifts, Health Care Choices, plus a lot more. Designed so you can keep all your important documents in one place, and better yet, find them when you really need them! Just supply the required information in the workbook sections. Included are checklists, worksheets, sleeves to hold DVDs for photo and video inventory - practical and simple, an open and shut case." - LA Parent " Life Organizer is a very useful resource that should be highly considered for those who want their life's information written down." - Midwest Book Review "A great resource...the author not only gives a great tool for estate planning, but lots of useful information and tips as well.  I highly recommend this organizer to adults of all ages to help get your affairs in order." -BookBargainsandPreviews.com About the Author Nancy Randolph Greenway is co-author and primary writer of Pass It On, A Practical Guide to the Fears and Facts of Planning Your Estate, Hyperion, 2000.
