My name is Matt Whitcomb. I’m the founder and owner of Lasting Legacies. I’m a Viet Nam veteran and served in the infantry, earning the Bronze Star. Glad to be able to make it back.
I’ve been married 40 years to my high school sweetheart and we’re still in love. We have 5 children and 15 grandchildren so far. Finding new ways to spend money on the grandkids.
I used to be an insurance guy. I’d go to my clients’ homes (mostly seniors) and help them analyze their finances. I’d make suggestions for tax strategies to leave the most money to their children, and to avoid probate. I was pretty successful at what I did.
But I noticed a much bigger problem.
Nobody, I repeat NOBODY, was providing enough information to their children when they died. Their estate planning usually had a Will or a Trust, and of course I helped them with their insurance products, but there was a huge gap in other critical information.
There was no Estate Organization. So I decided to change hats and help more people.
What is Estate Organization? Think of a 40 piece puzzle. Each piece has a label like “Will” or “Trust” or “Life Insurance”. Typically people think that estate “planning” covers the whole puzzle, but it doesn’t. Only about 8 of the 40 pieces cover estate “planning”.
Estate Organization covers the other 32 pieces, or 80% of the whole picture. It covers topics like Love Letters, Biography, Children, Legacy, and many other areas commonly overlooked.
By nature, I’m an organized guy. I studied the subject of organizing people’s estates and created comprehensive but easy to use tools.
I went back to my insurance clients and explained what I created. They were a little reluctant to try it at first. After I worked with them and started the process of creating a Family Legacy Journal for them, they relaxed.
When I was done, they (and their children) were amazed at the results! They used to like me when I helped them with their insurance, but now they LOVED me for helping them create this “miracle” book for their family.
My clients were appreciative of the work I’d done for them. They were generous in referring me to their friends. I ended up being busier than a termite in a sawmill.
However, my clients kept asking me, “How come you don’t try to reach more people by using the web?”
The purpose of Lasting Legacies is to as help as many people as possible with preserving precious family memories. That’s why I created this website, to provide our products and services to more folks around the world. And we’re doing pretty good so far.
