Kirsten breaks down the reality behind the sensational headlines, explaining what happens when an executor accepts a creditor's claim versus actually paying it. With O.J.'s estate valued at just $1-2 million against a $58 million accepted claim, she reveals who really gets paid first in probate and why the Goldmans may see almost nothing despite "winning." <a href="https://absolutetrustcounsel.com/197-o-j-simpsons-58-million-problem-what-his-probate-teaches-us/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Tune in</a> for a real-world lesson on why probate takes so long and how creditor claims actually work.<a href="https://absolutetrustcounsel.com/197-o-j-simpsons-58-million-problem-what-his-probate-teaches-us/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Press Play!</a>[AD] Estate planning addresses many vital factors about your future and legacy.

Walnut Creek Business Owners: O.J. Simpson's $58 Million Problem: What His Probate Teaches Us

Hillendale Home Care in Walnut Creek has released a new educational resource to help families better understand the growing need for supportive, personalized home care for disabled adults. Many families in the East Bay are navigating mobility challenges, chronic illness, cognitive changes, and the emotional impact of caring for a loved one at home &mdash; often without a clear roadmap.
The new guide explains how home care can preserve independence, reduce caregiver strain, and make daily life safer and more fulfilling. It covers practical support with mobility, transportation, meal preparation, personal care, companionship, and long-term continuity of care. The article also highlights when families should consider bringing in additional help &mdash; whether due to increasing fall risk, changes in cognition, or burnout among family caregivers.
Hillendale&rsquo;s care team created this resource to help local families make informed decisions and feel less alone as they navigate complex care needs.

Hillendale Home Care Shares New Guide on Home Care for Disabled Adults

Walnut Creek neighbors and small business owners, tune in as we share some valuable insights and information on the currency, sustainability, and social impact of bitcoin.&nbsp;
<a href="https://absolutetrustcounsel.com/196-bitcoin-demystified-part-3-currency-sustainability-and-social-impact/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Watch Now!</a>
Can Bitcoin actually function as real money&mdash;and is it destroying the planet? In Part 3 of our <a href="https://absolutetrustcounsel.com/196-bitcoin-demystified-part-3-currency-sustainability-and-social-impact/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Absolute Trust Talk</a>&nbsp;cryptocurrency series, host Kirsten Howe continues her conversation with Jirayr Kembikian, CFP&reg; and Managing Director of Citrine Capital, to answer these critical questions. Jirayr systematically breaks down the seven properties that define ideal currency&mdash;durability, divisibility, portability, verifiability, scarcity, established history, and ease of use&mdash;then compares Bitcoin against both the U.S. dollar and gold. Bitcoin outperforms the dollar on almost every measure and beats gold in critical areas like portability and verifiability. You'll discover why no one can walk into Fort Knox to verify reserves, how Bitcoin's network validates itself every 10 minutes, and why the fixed supply cap means higher prices can never inflate availability (unlike gold mining).
But the real surprises come when Jirayr addresses Bitcoin's environmental critics. Learn how mining operations now capture harmful methane from landfills and gas flaring, why Bitcoin uniquely utilizes stranded energy that nothing else can access, and how 55% of the network runs on renewable power&mdash;advancing clean energy in unprecedented ways. The conversation extends to Bitcoin's profound social impact: providing financial access to over a billion unbanked people worldwide and offering economic freedom to those living under authoritarian regimes. From Block (formerly Square) integrating Bitcoin into millions of point-of-sale terminals to El Salvador's adoption as legal tender, Bitcoin is moving from investment vehicle to functional currency faster than most realize.

Ready to own Bitcoin but not sure where to start? In Part 2 of our <a href="https://absolutetrustcounsel.com/195-bitcoin-demystified-part-2-the-3-ways-to-own-bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Absolute Trust Talk</a>&nbsp;cryptocurrency series, host Kirsten Howe continues her conversation with Jirayr Kembikian, CFP&reg; and Managing Director of Citrine Capital, to break down the three distinct ways to acquire and hold Bitcoin&mdash;each with its own unique trade-offs. 
 
Jirayr walks through everything from Bitcoin ETFs (the easiest and most familiar option) to exchange custody and self-custody, explaining why he believes "the only wrong answer for Bitcoin allocation is zero." He reveals the critical phrase Bitcoin purists use&mdash;"not your keys, not your coins"&mdash;and why understanding custody matters for your financial security. You'll discover why Bitcoin-only exchanges are safer than multi-crypto platforms, learn about the estate planning risks of keeping Bitcoin on exchanges, and understand why a 2-3% allocation keeps you market neutral.
