Today, Amy Walls from Thimbleberry Financial joins Jon Gay to talk about windfalls – money that comes to you suddenly, often unexpectedly. This can be an inheritance, a settlement, or even lottery winnings.

70 percent of people who come into sudden money deplete those funds within a few years, so today, Amy walks us through steps to avoid windfall pitfalls.

  • Plan ahead
  • Be honest, not manipulative
  • Put a strong team in place
  • Make a wish list
  • Keep quiet!
  • Save appropriately
  • Take responsibility for mistakes.
