A revocable trust, sometimes called a living trust, is a legal arrangement where you place your assets (like your home, investments, or bank accounts) into a trust during your lifetime. You still get to control and use those assets while you’re alive. And because it’s revocable, you can change it, update it, or even cancel it entirely if your circumstances or intentions change. In plain English? It’s like setting up a box where you put your stuff, but you still hold the keys

A living will is a legal document that outlines your preferences for medical treatment in the event you become incapacitated and can’t communicate your wishes yourself.

A Durable Power of Attorney (DPOA) is a legal document that gives someone else (your "agent" or "attorney-in-fact") the authority to act on your behalf if you become mentally or physically unable to handle your own affairs. The word “durable” means it stays in effect even if you become incapacitated.

Probate is the legal process by which a deceased person’s will is validated, and their assets are distributed to heirs and beneficiaries. If there’s no will, the court appoints an administrator and distributes the assets according to state law.

Inheritance refers to the money, property, or assets that a person leaves to their heirs when they pass away. It’s often distributed according to the instructions in a will or through state laws if no will exists.

A beneficiary is a person (or entity) who is legally entitled to receive money, property, or other benefits from a financial product, legal agreement, or estate after someone dies or when certain conditions are met.

An executor is the person named in your will to manage your estate after you pass away. Their job? Handle your final financial affairs—think debts, taxes, and dividing up your assets to the people (or causes) you care about.

Your estate is everything you own at the time of your death—your money, property, investments, life insurance (sometimes), personal belongings, and even your debts.
