How does financial planning relate to estate planning?

Financial planning and estate planning work together to help you understand your complete financial picture. Financial planning involves evaluating your assets, income, and investments for long-term security, while estate planning focuses on how those assets will be distributed. When you understand both areas, you can make more informed decisions about protecting your wealth and providing for your beneficiaries.
