Preparing for Death...

Keep in mind that the law is different in every state... not to mention there's city and state regulations when it comes to laws. Alive:   you'll need a living will aka Advanced Health Care Directives, power of attorney, medical power of attorney, otherwise first of kin gets dibs.

The average cost of a funeral is over $6500 according to the web... List your liabilities and assets...

Credit Cards

*Dont get too many credit cards. *Spend as much as you can pay off. And pay off right away. *Make sure it has no annual fee *Visa is a good card to have, as it's taken everywhere usually. *Having too many credit cards can hurt you, because you look more risky to have so many opportunities to have more potential debts. Too many cards you can take out a loan for the total sum of a giant loan. So not good when being evulated for loans for mortgage for example. *Whatever you buy, sit it there for two weeks, with receipt -if you can live with it for two weeks and not have it, take it back. 7 cards is a lot... Which cards will you remember to cancel if you lose your wallet right now? And how quickly can you get it done? 3-4 cards better Travel Good cash back. Business expenses. You can close your credit cards soon as you get it, but it's not good for you. First credit card is good for you, the one with the longest credit history. - Advice from Winnie Sun --------------...

Just tidbits of information that I wish I knew earlier in life....

IRA & Funding IRA with Credit Card

               My accountant suggested my partner and myself to open up an IRA account to help with our taxes. And she suggested looking into IRA accounts with our current checking accounts banks, as some banks waive fees for existing account holders. Ex: Chase, TD Bank But is your IRA account protected from creditors like the 401K would be in your current state of residency? I'm in NY:  http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/can-judgment-creditors-go-after-my-retirement-accounts-new-york.html# ... so check your state law! And also search reasons not to rollover funds from 401K. FYI...                After much browsing online..... the idea sprung.... to provide contribution to IRA account by credit and earn rewards, new card bonuses. So far I've only seen one site post on how to do this.... http://saverocity.com/finance/how-to-fund-an-ira-with-a-credit-card-make-huge-profit-process/ ...
