Fine Answers

Some conversations are hard to start, but they matter most. In this episode of the Finances podcast, Jay and Delta sit down with Beth King, General Manager of Kings Funerals, a Geelong family business that has served local families for over seven decades. I think it's one every family should hear. Beth walks us through what really happens when someone dies, in plain and practical terms. We cover who has the legal right to make decisions, what a funeral really costs, why there is no need to rush in the first few hours, and how planning ahead can take a huge weight off the people you love. She also shares simple ways to start the conversation at home, even if it is just writing down family names and details. You do not have to do it all at once. A small step now can save your family a lot of stress later. Listen to the full episode now, share it with someone you care about, and follow along for more.

Aged care can feel overwhelming, so we got our team together with Right at Home Geelong to break it down in plain language.   In this full seminar we cover how to get started with My Aged Care, what Support at Home can do to keep you in your own home for longer, and how the costs of residential aged care actually work. We also answer the questions we hear most often, like whether they can make you sell the family home, and why getting advice before gifting assets matters so much.   My biggest takeaway is to start the conversation early. The system takes time, and the more you know now, the easier the decisions will be for you and your family.   Watch the full video and share it with someone who might need it.

Kevin reflects on the decisions his family made, what worked, what didn't go to plan, and why having open conversations and a succession plan in place early can make all the difference.   A candid conversation about Australian farming, family business, succession planning, retirement and adapting when the future doesn't look the way you expected.   Watch the full episode above.   If you'd like to get in touch with us: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/burkebrittonfp Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/burkebrittonfp?exln=aG9uZWQ0ZzZ5aXll&utm_source=qr TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@burkebrittonfp?_r=1&_t=ZS-9AUJYGnvzqq Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7fsqYAVcQJ0W84qRcQARCD?si=KZOkm3XtQCm6ErXTRGeiFA&utm_source=copy-link If you are seeking personal financial advice specific to your circumstances you can contact the team at Burke Britton Financial Partners on 0352217700, [email protected], visit our website at Bbfp Home - Burke Britton Financial Partners More actions or book a 15min call to see how we can help you via https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/[email protected]/bookings/s/Mch8gUZK6U2W9Lmg86-jmg2 You can find us on Twitter, Instagram & Facebook @BurkeBrittonFP PB Financial Solutions Pty Ltd trading as Burke Britton Financial Partners ABN 67 097 381 523.
