Most people do not avoid estate planning because they do not care. They avoid it because it feels uncomfortable, confusing, expensive, emotional, or too far away to matter today. Life does not wait until we feel ready. Luck or Control is a practical and deeply personal guide to understanding estate planning as more than paperwork. Lorenz shows that an estate plan is not just about money, death, taxes, or legal documents. It is about love, dignity, preparation, and making sure the people you care about are not left guessing when you can no longer speak for yourself.

By mid-life, many people have already reached the version of success they once imagined. The house. The career. The family. The savings. The independence. But what happens next? How to Be a Successful Ninety-Year-Old is not a book about getting older as much as it is about preparing to live well for as long as life allows. Marguerite Lorenz, a Professional Trustee and Executor, draws from real client experiences to show what successful aging looks like when health, independence, family, money, care, and personal wishes begin to overlap.
