As leaders in the financial and estate planning community, we have first-hand experience with the challenges Americans face with regard to saving, investing, and planning for their financial futures.?

• The majority of Americans over 65 are totally dependent on their Social Security checks. With proper knowledge and planning, future generations can have a more secure retirement.
• It is estimated that over 120,000,000 Americans do not have an up-to-date estate plan to protect themselves, and their families, making estate planning one of the most overlooked areas of personal financial management. Estate planning is not just for the wealthy and is important for everyone. With advance planning, issues such as guardianship of children, managing bill paying and assets in the event of sickness or disability, care of a special needs child, long-term care needs, and distribution of retirement assets can all be handled with sensitivity, care, and at a reasonable cost.
• The majority of Americans lack the ability to adequately plan for their retirement. This can be changed immediately with knowledge and the right planning tools.
• Many people mistakenly believe that since they aren?t ?rich? they do not need to do any financial and estate planning. This attitude can be financially harmful in the long-run and can be avoided with proactive action.

The NAEPC Education Foundation and the National Association of Estate Planners & Councils have teamed up with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the American Association of Attorney-Certified Public Accountants, the American Bar Association Section of Real Property, Trust and Estate Law, the Society of Financial Service Professionals, the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys, the Partnership for Philanthropic Planning (all members of the Synergy Summit, a unified think tank and voice of leadership for leading financial service organizations), and the Financial Planning Association^?. Together these organizations represent over 800,000 professionals and the accountants, attorneys, financial planners and advisors, insurance agents and brokers, and trust officers that are members of these professional associations will mobilize the entire financial and estate planning community by providing support, tools, and education for professionals and the public they serve.
