Overview
When a book about wills and death makes you smile instead of squirm, you know you’ve found something special. Last Bucket List: Plan B for the Invincible by Rich Lippman, with illustrations by Dennis Goris, turns one of life’s most avoided subjects into something warm, funny, and surprisingly human. It’s part picture book, part self-reflection, and entirely creative. It belongs on the coffee table in every office, wherever adults can be found.
Lippman approaches wills, trusts, healthcare directives, and legacy planning with humor and heart. Each page reminds you that estate planning isn’t just paperwork, it’s one of the most caring things you can do for the people you love.
Last Bucket List
What Makes It Worth Reading
Most estate books feel like homework. This one feels alive. The writing is sharp, the illustrations are clever, and the advice is refreshingly real. Readers learn about “superheroes,” “inheritance pie,” “missions of meaning,” and “forever letters” in ways that are practical yet genuinely moving.
It’s a guide that makes you laugh, think, and act. Even attorneys and financial professionals will appreciate how it turns serious conversations into something approachable and human, and will even help ‘unscrew yourself!’
