Ernie has been in business for several years and is now enjoying quite a bit of success. His business is growing and so is his family. He is now married with a son, Ernie, Jr. These family responsibilities have caused Ernie to contemplate what would happen to his business and to his family if he were to die. Should he be putting some documents in place to plan for this? What documents would those be and what should be included in them? What would happen to his son if both Ernie and his wife were to die at the same time? How can he protect Ernie, Jr., in that event? What about Ernie, Jr.’s, finances? Would he get any money? If Ernie, Jr., is young when his parents both pass, who will handle Ernie, Jr.’s, finances and who will take care of him?

Ernie Entrepreneur again seeks your help in guiding him through this strange and frightening world of estate planning. Please counsel Ernie on what is available and what, in your professional opinion, would be best to meet his needs. Use the applicable chapter in our textbook and the videos as a reference in advising Ernie. Do a good job. Ernie and his family are depending on you!!
