The importance of estate planning for parents living overseas

Migrating to the U.S. is no easy feat but you did it. You made it here and have started a new life. Unfortunately, your parents are still back in Greece and you miss them terribly. Since you're unable to see them on a regular basis, you make it a point to have weekly phone dates.

Guarantee that your health care wishes are met with a living will

No matter how healthy and happy you feel, you can benefit from a living will. A living will is not quite what it sounds like. It is a document that gives instructions to doctors if you are unable to communicate your health care wishes. It is much better to be prepared with a living will than to be without one when you are in need.

Greece seeing rise in inheritance disclaimers

Inheritances are generally seen as a good thing to receive. However, there are some things that could majorly impact how much a person would actually want a given inheritance. One is if the property given has major costs associated with it, like inheritance tax costs or maintenance costs. Another is if the person doesn’t view the property as being very helpful to them. When a beneficiary views a given inheritance as being a bigger burden than a help, one thing they might do is disclaim it.
