Description: "The text of not dead yet is as detailed as it nneeds tobe and as concise as it can be. In order to minimize the boredom factor inherent in any book ever written on estate planning, the 24 chapters are interwoven with a graphic novel story featuring a hero, estate planning nightmares, a disruption of the time-space continuum, the hero's estate planning epiphany and a happily-ever-after ending"--Page 4 of cover.
