Certain decisions get made for you. How much control do you want over your life?

If you know who you want to receive property from you when you pass away, you could make a choice and draft a will. If there are potential challenges that stand between you and achieving that goal, you can make different planning choices, probably involving a trust.

People are walking around without making these choices for themselves. So the government makes decisions for them.

Even for those who make decisions for themselves, the government still makes decisions that affect your future. A state budget was just passed that makes decisions about the resources that will be available if your health fails.

Bottom line: know the system you are aging into, and know what decisions you can make for your family's circumstances.
