Money is an emotional issue. Some people are fearful of making decisions related to money; other people are energized by it. Even in the best of times, making decisions about money requires time and thought and creates an emotional reaction.
When you’re in a crisis situation, it’s difficult to think clearly. You may be experiencing significant physical and emotional reactions to your loss. You may find yourself in the difficult position of having to help your friends and family adjust to the loss as well. It can seem overwhelming to try and navigate the emotions of grief and keep your day-to-day life, including your finances, in order and running smoothly. On top of that you will now face some significant decisions related to money.
We’ve created this section to provide you with some tools that offer structure, information and resources for your money-making decisions. These tools are designed to help you break down financial issues and decisions into smaller, more manageable “portions,” allowing you to feel more in control during this difficult time. We hope these tools will boost your confidence as you work through the information and worksheets on the rest of the site.
