    Are You Letting Fear and Greed Drive Your Estate Planning?

    By Stephen Bloom | September 10, 2009

    Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle. - Proverbs 23:5

    The Believer’s Guide to Legal Issues on estate planning:

    Where Christians need to be careful when it comes to estate planning is in the perspective, or heart attitude, with which we carry out the planning process. Far too many Christians end up falling for the same psychological ploys as the rest of society, creating estate plans based on an unholy combination of fear and greed rather than on principles of wise and constructive planning. And far too many Christians are drawn deeper and deeper into this spirit of fear and greed by an estate-planning industry built largely on selling the illusions of “protection” and “security” to the very people it has just worked quite diligently to frighten.

    (excerpt from Chapter 5, “The Estate-Planning Illusion”)
