According to Skeeles and Cunningham from the Ohio State University Extension, estate planning ensures that the welfare of a loved one is secured even after his or her death. However, the majority of Americans do not have a plan or a will. Why? No one likes to think or talk about his or her own demise, and our loved ones don’t want to hear about this subject either. Another reason is that the majority of us do not fathom the idea of planning an estate.
