Chapter 22 - I REMOVE MY FATHER FROM ONE DOCUMENT

My estate plan named Dad as temporary financial adviser if I became incapacitated.

I changed it.

Independent fiduciary instead.

Dad learned later.

He was offended.

“Why?”

“Because you are my father.”

“That is not an answer.”

“It is exactly the answer.”

He stared.

Then:

“You trust strangers more?”

“With fiduciary administration? Sometimes.”

He shook his head.

“Unbelievable.”

I smiled.

“You taught me to protect my assets.”

“From husbands.”

“From everyone.”

That silenced him.

Eventually he nodded.

Not happily.

Progress rarely looks happy in our family.
