What is a legacy?
First and foremost, it's how you want to be remembered by the people you love and the causes you support. In short, your legacy is the way you pass on the meaning of your life.
When you combine your values and assets with your loved ones, this is your legacy.
But before we talk about money and assets, let's spend a couple of minutes talking about values.

Your life experiences are the guiding principals to what is important to you. Maybe it’s your church, your community or your local hospital. Perhaps it is literacy, disaster relief, medical research or arts programs. The important thing here is to think about what you are passionate about.

Just as people can have different values, they can also have different relationships. Some may have many children and grandchildren. Others may be concerned for nieces and nephews or siblings. Some of your loved ones may have special needs. It is important to think about how each person fits into your legacy plan.

17. A Legacy of Education Your Loved Ones Your Values Your Assets
Your Legacy
Let’s assume that education is one of your top priorities. Instead of leaving money to a niece, for example, with the appropriate planning and arrangements, you can leave her a scholarship or prepaid tuition to school. This kind of arrangement helps reinforce "education" as one of your most important values and helps define your specific legacy.

18. Ways to Leave a Legacy

Choose among a wide variety of legal arrangements
Wills
Trusts
Use different financial arrangements for wealth transfer
Titling of investments
Naming beneficiaries of life insurance
