A permanent document is a piece of paper you must keep until you die.
There isn’t a lot of personal paperwork that you need to keep forever. But, when people don’t know, they keep more than necessary.
Here is a good reminder of what you do need to keep forever.
- Birth Certificates
- Death certificates
- Marriage licenses
- Divorce decrees
- Social Security cards
- Military discharge papers
- Pension-plan documents
- Estate-planning documents
- Wills

The Time Timer
Give the Gift of (Visual) Time
Whether your children are learning at home in the classroom or both, the time timer products can help ensure they have the tools to succeed. Discover how you can reduce resistance to routines and increase time management skills.
Unlike traditional timers that fail to make the abstract concept of time concrete, the award-winning Time Timer’s visual depiction of “time remaining” provides stress-free time management at work, school, and home to make every moment count.
Special needs individuals: There’s a world of difference between looking at a clock and being able to say that it’s 3 o’clock and understanding “how long” 5 minutes is. For those who learn differently, this type of abstract thinking is even more difficult and often creates a high level of anxiety.
Education: Teachers around the world have discovered the power of the award-winning Time Timer to transform stressful transition periods, reduce resistance to routines and increase their ability to manage their classrooms.
Home: You know what a difference the Time Timer makes in the classroom, but what about at home? Discover the power of the award-winning Time Timer to transform never-ending meals, stressful transition periods, and resistance to routines.
Work: At your desk, in the boardroom, or on the wall of the conference hall, the Time Timer increases productivity by creating a sense of urgency and keeping everyone on track.
