one of the smartest financial moves you can make is working with a certified financial planner instead of trying to wing it solo domain money cfp professionals don't just hand out generic financial advice they help people get on track for early retirement fix messy investment allocations and figure out the perfect timing for major purchases like buying a house or gosh i don't know growing a family asking for a friend yes i am that friend in fact my husband and i actually just talked to adriana adams head of financial planning at domain on the podcast
And she had this advice around what to do to set our daughter up for financial success.
So there's three things that I would prioritize. The first one is saving for your own future because the best gift you can give her is to not be a burden later in life. And the second thing is life insurance, which I know sounds morbid and is not fun. I'm a huge fan of cheap term life insurance.
Really, we just want to replace your income in case something happens to you guys so that she is taken care of. And the third thing is estate planning. And believe it or not, everybody has an estate plan. It just depends on if you created it or the government created it for you.
