Show Notes
Rachael Burns, CFP and Certified Divorce Financial Analyst joins me to discuss ways to prepare yourself if you find yourself on your own.
We talk about:
- How spiking interest rates have complicated divorce settlements, especially when dealing with real estate.
- Creative living arrangements like 'nesting'.
- How you can always be prepared just by being involved in the finances regularly.
Rachel will tell us why fixating on to the family home might not always be the best financial decision in a divorce, and why sacrificing retirement savings to keep a house might lead to regret.
We'll also cover the emotional and administrative chaos that typically follows a partner's death, offering essential tips on how you can better prepare for managing finances solo. Our discussion will extend to the importance of not just knowing your financial assets but also having a hand in managing them, even if finances aren't really your thing.
