Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode, Johnnie and estate planning expert Frank continue their discussion on legacy planning by explaining the fundamental differences between wills and trusts. They discuss why a will is simply a statement of your wishes that still requires probate, while a trust is a legally binding contract that gives you greater control over how and when your assets are distributed. The conversation also highlights how trusts can reduce family conflict, avoid probate, and protect beneficiaries from life's unexpected challenges.
