Summary: This book lets you add "wisdom" to your heirs inheritance
Review: "In all thy getting, get an understanding." This book gives you understanding in planning and managing your heirs inheritance. I wanted to wisely leave my children their inheritance and keep it in the bloodline. This book, through all the examples, gave me the right questions to ask and options to pursue in how to do that. It also makes you aware of so many things that can happen to that inheritance before and after your heirs acquire it. If all you have to leave your heirs is a 15 year old house and an 8 month old used toothbrush, READ IT!

Summary: Invaluable for Estate Planning!
Review: .We know you will find BEYOND THE GRAVE absolutely invaluable. It is the only book in America that tells you how to recognize and resolve the most common family inheritance problems. As we say in our book: Your children may be perfect...your children may love each other...but when it comes to dividing the money, it's a whole new ballgame. We wrote BEYOND THE GRAVE in an easy-to-read "Ann Landers" style "Q & A" format. In fact, Ms. Landers devoted an entire column to our book, which we understand she does with books only once or twice a year. The public has enthusiastically embraced BEYOND THE GRAVE, and it is now the best-selling family inheritance book in America. We strongly believe that recognizing an inheritance problem before it occurs is 95% of its solution. BEYOND THE GRAVE offers 45 chapters on every inheritance issue, including the following:
*The First One to Mom's House After Her Funeral Wins.
*You Really Don't Know Your Children--Until They Divide Their Inheritance.
*If You Don't Want the Blame--Treat Your Children the Same.
*After You Child Inherits--Will It Be There for Your Grandchild?
*Are Your Children Spending Their Inheritance--And You're Not Dead Yet?
*There's No Place Like Home--Until Your Children Fight Over It After You DIe.
*Protecting Your Surviving Spouse's Ownership and Control of the Family Money.
*How to Leave More to Your Children and Grandchildren and Less to the IRS
*How Can I Get My Parents to Do Something?
*Preventing Your Money from Ending Up with Your Spouse's Bowling Instructor.

Review: I borrowed this book from a friend and I did not want to give it back to her. Do not put your will together until you first read this book. This should be required reading before wills are made. The authors even put their phone number in the back and say that it's okay to call them...for free. I called the number and talked to Jeff Condon...a real nice guy. I told him that I thought his book was terrific and asked him questions. He was really helpful, even though I thought I took too much of his time. GET THIS BOOK!

Summary: A must read before putting your estate plan to work
Review: I first read Beyond the Grave some years ago. I thought it was incitefull and touched on the human aspect of transferring wealth that was missing in other books that I read on this subject. I read it again recently. This time my personal situation had changed and I had a specific need for the kind of information. I found that it was written in a form that seemed to me as "personal advice".I was pleased that I could zero in on particular aspects of the book because of how wonderfully organized it was. I was further impressed by the detail of all aspects of a given question and how easily I could apply it to my personal situation. I almost felt that I was having a dialog with the Condons.
The book is full of important advice for making difficult decisions that can effect the lives of your loving beneficiaries after you are gone. Information and ideas that I could not have thought of without the assistance of this book. I holdheartedly recommend this book.

Summary: Practical advice
Review: I have been looking for a book like this for a while and stumbled across it in the public library. I read it cover to cover in a couple of hours. Easy to read, yet so full of practical info you will be dog-earing each page. I am in my late thirties and have learned so much that I plan to give this book to my parents. The real life scenarios make you think. You'll get wonderful ideas as to how to structure your own inheritance plan and how to approach your parents and help them get the information they need.

Summary: If You Need Inheritance Information, YOU MUST GET THIS BOOK!
Review: I have never written a review before on Amazon, but I must take the time to recommend BEYOND THE GRAVE. I saw the author, Jeff Condon, talking about inheritances on television and thought nothing more about it until I stumbled on it on senior living website. So I got it, and I am so glad I did. The Condons write the book as if they are talking to the reader while he is sitting in their office. I understood everything they had say because they don't write like lawyers. And it is also very entertaining. I never expected to laugh out loud while reading a book on inheritances, but I did. I especially liked the Condons' horse-sense approach to the subject and I walked away from it with a lot of things I can discuss with my lawyer to prepare an amendment to my trust. I have looked at a few other inheritance books, but they simply do not compare. So I say, if you are interested in this topic, you must get this book.
