Why we created The Family Binder

Created by a Financial Planner, The Family Binder was made to help families organize the most important areas of their financial life in one document. Experiencing clients lose loved ones and having no understanding of where to find their family’s accounts, insurance documents, wills, trusts, and household information led to the creation of The Family Binder.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Will I receive a physical product?

No, The Family Binder is a printable and editable PDF download. After confirmation of payment from Shopify, you will automatically receive your download and can access The Family Binder document immediately.

What is the best way to print The Family Binder?

Simply print the PDF after completing, punch holes, and put them in a 3-ring binder (0.5 inch or 1 inch works well).

Do I need to be financially savvy to complete The Family Binder?

The Family Binder is structured very simply, so you can start from the beginning and fill out your information as you go through the document. There is no prior financial knowledge needed. Just start going through information that you use in your life, one page at a time. If you do not have a full understanding of your financial situation or your household’s management, now would be a good time to address that information and gather those documents.

Where should I save The Family Binder once it's complete?

We recommend sharing the PDF family binder document with your spouse, adult children, and Successor Trustee(s) in a secure manner. Because the document will contain sensitive information like social security numbers and financial account numbers, we recommend saving to a secure website like Google Drive or Dropbox. You may also consider saving the file to a flash drive or printing and storing in a home safe or other secure location.

I already have a Will and Trust in place, do I still need The Family Binder?

The Family Binder will provide your executor (or your estate’s Trustee) with detailed information about your finances and your household, making their job much easier when it comes time for them to step in. The Family Binder will compliment a Will and Trust and provide more direct information for your next-of-kin.

Do I have a limit in the times I can download this product?

Once purchased, The Family Binder is yours for life (for personal use). You will receive it as a PDF, and you are free to save it anywhere you like (computer desktop, memory card, flash drive, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.).
