Synopsis

Here is what nobody tells you about dying, or getting sick in a way that leaves you unable to manage your own life: your family will not be locked out of your stuff in some dramatic movie way. They will be locked out of it in the most ordinary way possible. They will not know your email password. They will not be able to unlock your phone. They will not know which bank you actually use, because you have three, and the one with the most money in it is not the one anyone remembers.

This happens constantly. It is not rare, and it is not really anyone's fault. We were never taught to think about our digital lives this way. Wills cover the house and the car. Almost nobody's will covers the seventeen accounts you log into every week.

This is a plain-language guide for two kinds of readers: people who want their accounts, photos, and digital life to be findable by the people they love, and adult children trying to help a parent get organized before a crisis instead of after one.

It is also for a third kind of reader: the financial planner or estate professional whose clients have wills, beneficiaries, and organized financial records, but no plan for their digital lives. This is the book to hand them when the estate plan is done but the digital plan is not.

Inside, among other things:

How to give one trusted person real access without texting anyone a password

How to catch a photo backup that quietly stalled out months ago

How to prevent the financial freeze that leaves a mortgage unpaid while the money sits three feet away

How to start the conversation, including what to say when it feels overdue
Every chapter ends with a short list of things you can do that week. Not someday. That week.
You don't need to be tech-savvy. You need a few afternoons and someone to just tell you what to do.
