The last two posts I've responded to are in my opinion horrible. People turning against their family because of politics. I voted for Mr. Trump to turn our country around. Not to cause a fight or put down the left. Although we have different views this country and his dream are not going to work if we are divided.

The people saying make sure you dot all your I's and Cross all your T's are correct. Leave nothing vague. Remember how slimy lawyers can be so have your ducks in a row to ensure the people you want to are the ones who get it. Maybe even instruct them not to share it in case their resolve is not as strong as yours.

We all have to work together. That includes the pot stirrers on this site. I want my daughter to grow up like I did back in the 80's. I remember asking about the Berlin wall as a kid and my dad explaining to me the best he could in laymen's terms what was happening. The country was one then. Now every time I get on the Internet it's left this right that. I quit watching the news. It made my blood pressure stroke level. We are better on this site than any other. Everyone on here has one common interest. Guess I'm just trying to say believe let's respect each other whether we believe in what their saying. And prayers for Mr. Trump.

Or the Shriners.

Corky, do everything you can legally. Your biggest challenge is choosing executors plural, you can trust if needed.
After it’s Done, safety deposit box, copy to the lawyer, and never discuss it or think about it again. Go enjoy life, trust me this one shot existence is fun even when you’re old!

Good luck. My wife's brothers brought lawyers into the hospital room while their Dad was dying and got him to change the will and it stood. Love of money is the root of all evil.

My grandmother had mom, her sister, and brother on some CD’s so when she died the money was split at the bank, so nobody could argue.

A lawyer told us that if we didn't have a will in Nebraska, the state sure as heck does have a plan for it. Not sure if all states are the same.

When my wife's grandparents past away they left everything to her. Her dad ,mom and brother were madder than a wet hen. But for years they wouldn't have anything to do with them but my wife did. They had used all their savings on medical care and we had loaned them several thousand dollars. Their home and land was worth a lot of money, of course there was a lot owed against it. I guess what I'm getting at is give your estate to who you want and get an iron clad will. I'm thankful they had one

Yep, that is her. We had to sneak that trip in before she started her new job at the Mayo. She is getting married in June this year so I will go alone. I haven't seen or spoken to her bothers in probably 6-8 years.


I have nothing clever to put here.

I say your are right on point. My kids will likely not get equal inherentance. I'm watching them develop and how they handle themselves and treat others as well as Handel money. I'm not leaving the same amount to be blown and ran through fast if one is a spend thrift and the other's are responsible.

Same goes if they make life choices I don't agree with. Maybe one stickes around and takes better care of us when we age why would the ones that don't get the same amount?

Things change so have it so it's no to difficult to make changes to your wishes and you can make changes with the situation.

Heck maybe it will all go to a future grand kid or two or maybe I will spend everything who knows.

I am pretty proud of her and what she made of herself. I don't think much of either of her parents but somehow she kept pointed in the right direction and made something out of herself.
