In honor of May the 4th, we asked A.I. to write about estate planning in the voice of a Star Wars character. Yoda would be too easy, so here’s an estate planning post from Darth Vader:

Your legacy is inevitable — but whether it is ruled by order or consumed by chaos is a matter of your will alone. Estate planning is not a mere exercise in paperwork; it is the assertion of control over what you have built, ensuring your assets are distributed according to your design, not left to the cold, impersonal machinery of the state. A properly executed Will, the strategic use of Trusts, and the appointment of those you trust to carry out your directives — these are the instruments of power that secure your dominion beyond your lifetime. Ignore them, and you surrender everything to uncertainty. Embrace them, and you bring balance to your affairs, commanding the future even from the shadows.

Happy Star Wars Day everyone!
