Topics
Michael Batnick: 我认为公开分享我母亲的故事帮助了许多人处理悲伤和失去。多年来,我收到了许多邮件,人们说我的故事帮助他们处理了丧亲之痛。 我母亲去世时我25岁,那段经历让我对生活的看法发生了改变,我更加积极地生活,不再为小事烦恼。 失去亲人让我更加珍惜与家人的时间,也让我更加重视财务规划的重要性。 Ben Carlson: 我哥哥去世后,我收到了很多来自朋友、家人和陌生人的支持和善意,这让我很惊讶也很感激。 我哥哥在年轻时经历过癌症,这让他对生活既乐观又悲观。他总是半开玩笑地说自己会在50岁之前去世。 我哥哥的癌症治疗经历了一个过山车式的过程,从最初的不可治愈到后来尝试新药并成功控制病情。这给了他额外的几个月时间去做他想做的事情,并安排好身后事。 我哥哥去世后,我收到了许多人分享的故事和照片,这让我意识到他影响了多少人的生活。 我哥哥给他的孩子们留下了几条简单的、重要的生活建议,例如:互相爱护、处理好自己的事情、永不放弃任何人、生活是不公平的、按时还清信用卡账单、会犯错但要从中学习、保持善良等等。 失去亲人让我意识到生活中琐碎的事情并不重要,应该享受当下。 处理财务问题变得非常重要,提前做好财务规划至关重要。拥有一个客观的第三方财务顾问的帮助非常重要。 在悲伤时期,做一些日常琐事反而有帮助。
