WHEN A FAMILY BREAKS UP OVER "Things" LIKE:
● A
SILVER BOWL,
● A
PIECE OF FURNITURE,
●
OR A CHRISTMAS
ORNAMENT . . .
The
results can be HEARTBREAKING . . .
but,
It doesn't have to be that way!
Families simply need to LEARN how to go through this
process.
Discover a PROVEN SYSTEM that teaches
how to SETTLE
AN ESTATE
both PEACEFULLY AND FAIRLY.
About The Settlement Game:
Preserve FAMILY HARMONY by agreeing on a system to divide all of the
little things in an estate settlement. . . the furniture and personal
property
(things that are usually named in a will as "...and all OTHER
Property, to be
divided equally among my heirs." - People fight over the
"Little Things"!
Consider These Points:
●
Do you dread the eventual
necessity of dividing the personal
property of
a family estate?
(Here's a way to do this without having a family
feud.)
● Do
you currently have good relationships with your
siblings ?
(Protect those relationships so you can remain
friends.)
● Is it important to you
to protect, preserve and even improve
relationships within your
family during this inevitable time of life ?
(It's all about relationships - Keep the peace.)

If any of the above statements
are true, then this might just be
the
most important letter you’ll ever read
- for sure this is
the most valuable website you’ll ever visit!
● There are countless books to
assist you with the financial and legal
side of this problem. However, there is little
information out there
to
tell you how to divide all of the little things
in an estate. Usually -
"The LITTLE THINGS
cause fights that can damage
relationships and eventually destroy a family."
I know how you
feel; I have felt the same fear. I’ve been through the
entire process. I am happy to tell you that
it is
possible to emerge
from dividing an estate with a peaceful and fair settlement
and
remain friends with relatives. I know, because along
with my three
siblings - WE DID IT!!
(Our parents would be SO proud!)
THE
SETTLEMENT GAME:
How to
Settle an Estate Peacefully and Fairly
is
a step-by-step guide for how to keep peace and avoid
conflict within a
family when going through the estate settlement process. This is one of
life's
most inevitable moments - a time when emotions are high, things get said,
feelings get hurt and that causes damage to relationships. Sometimes that
hurt can last a lifetime. Wouldn't it be better to go through this
process
following a
PROVEN SYSTEM of organization to avoid such heartache?
This provides both professionals and individuals
with
strategies that work.
These include such things as:
● Understanding
of the difference between a WILL and an ESTATE PLAN
●
PERSONALITY DIFFERENCES and how to communicate
effectively
● Who should be involved in the settlement, (and
who should NOT be)
● Why it is Important for
everyone involved to commit to the common
goal of "Keeping the Peace Among the Heirs"
● Why items should NOT be REMOVED from the home
before the
official division in the estate
settlement
● The SYSTEM OF ORGANIZATION to use for the
division of property
a. The Appraisal
b. Interest
Lists
c.
Distribution Sheets
d. Tally Sheet
("The Great Equalizer")
● The Actual DIVISION PROCESS (Playing the Game)
● The TO DO Checklist of things that must be done to
finalize the Estate
● Keeping Peace Long Term - (Thinking Forward)
Whether you are a professional helping
a family going through this
process or a member of the family, this information will guide you
through the entire process step-by-step. This PROVEN SYSTEM
uses a logical process that helps to preserve family relationships.
We've helped countless professionals and hundreds of family
members to go through this process successfully.
Here's what
people are saying about this Valuable System:
"After
mother's death, my brother and sisters looked to me
to begin the estate
settlement process. This book,
The Settlement Game: How to
Settle an Estate
Peacefully
and Fairly has been
like a
life line to a drowning victim. Anyone
can settle an estate, but to do so peacefully and
fairly, is another matter.
After reading the introduction, I purchased copies
for myself and my siblings. Our
home is like returning to another era with beautiful
antique furniture, dishes, and
many of our old toys. This book outlines a
system for distributing these items fairly
and peacefully. I particularly liked the
spiritual side that the author weaved into the
beginning of the book. I would recommend this
book to anyone who is faced with
settling an estate and wants to make sure the process
is done fairly and that family
relationships remain unharmed."

"When
my father passed away in 2006 I was in a panic about
being the executrix
of his estate.
Your book was a life saver.
It helped me start and end a very
long,
complex process to settle his estate. He was an
orthopedic surgeon with many
holdings and investments, had a new 'girlfriend' and 8
children! Aaahhh!
I actually expanded on your very reasonable
ideas and am happy to
report that
all of my siblings are still best of friends!
Thanks . . ."

"I am the executor of an estate and needed guidance
on an equitable way to
distribute my parents assets that were not large value
items, but also not garage sale
or donation items either.
This book has the best ideas I found
and with 4 kids
in the family
with different personalities
and locations,
IT REALLY WORKED!"

"Being one of five siblings, I was not looking
forward to settling our Dad's estate.
I needed some real life, practical help!
Reading The Settlement Game was an
answer to my prayers! Here is a book written by
an author who successfully settled
her parents' estate using practical ideas; she
shares these ideas, gives you guidelines
and tools so that you actually have something
to work with. I felt like I had a friend
to help me. Giving each
member in the family a copy of the book helped them
to
know what to
expect too. The Settlement Game not only helped me
with my father's
estate, but
it
will also be a great guideline in organizing my own
estate.
I am
definitely referring the book to friends. Each
one of us will someday have an estate
that will need to be settled; I recommend this
book to anyone who cares about
keeping peace harmony in the family."

"I am going to donate
this book to our church library!
It is truly a
"must read" book when
a loved one dies and you face dividing up all
of all the family
memories." I purchased this book when my Dad
passed
away and the 3 of us kids were faced with the daunting
task of figuring
out what to do with Mom and Dad's 57 years worth of household
goods
and treasured items. This book was the
only one I found that addressed
the issue of how to
fairly and compassionately distribute personal
effects;
it explains how to factor in the different
personalities of the heirs and how
to meet the emotional needs of each individual, without
sacrificing your
own. The book also gives some
wonderful ideas that can be
employed to bring
emotional closure when selling the family
homestead.
It even included some good tips for displaying some
of
your treasures, like old toys and Grandma's hand-made linens
or quilts
when you bring them home . . . it was just what our family
needed to
make a difficult process a healing experience."

JUDGE GRIFFIN BELL,
U.S. Attorney General (Carter Admin.)
wrote the Foreword to this book. WHY? - - because
he could
see that it was
a "common-sense approach" to
an age-old problem.
He also felt that it
would be quite useful within the professional
community. As
he said:
"Attorneys usually do not
have a proven
system to suggest to their clients for this piece of
the estate
settlement puzzle."
Dividing all
of the "little
things" is usually what
causes problems. This process is referred to in wills
as
". . . and all 'other' property to be divided equally among
my heirs."
Although there are other possible methods for dividing
the personal
property, one that teaches how to do so
Peacefully and Fairly
is the real secret to achieving a
"Peaceful Settlement."
