I seriously need to make a will... ....

We had one long ago and it is way out of date. We need to make a new one and have not done it. Hubby and I are both near 60 so we should get this done soon. I am going to be looking for urns on the net to buy for our creamation if or when we pass away. I want my will done so the kids know what to do and it is not going to cost them an arm and a leg. I hope to live 20 -30 more or so years though but you never know so I know we need to get this done very soon.

We need to also for our 6 yr old son. We have someone in mind to take care of our son if anything happens to us. We just have not gotten our butts into gear and done one.

We have the will software. And Some forms that I found online. We are planning to make the will. But we are waiting until after our son is is born in December. That way our daughter and our son will be dealt with. We didn't want to have to re-do.

I don't have a will either. I know I keep saying that one day I need to do one up but I procratinate over it. I don't have anything so there wouldn't be much to go around anyways but I should still do it because if I don't everything I have could go to escrow and then it would be tied up for some time. I have two children that are now adults so I don't have to worry about them, but I still would like to leave them something when I am gone. It can be expensive to draw up a will with a lawyer so you can buy a will kit at a book store that costs only about $45. That is how my mom did hers just recently. It is legal and all, just like having a lawyer do it, but if you have a lot of things then it can be difficult. What my mom did was make my sister her trustee and she knows to share everything with all of us. And of course we all trust her to do it fairly.

you can just write everything up yerself at home and then go to a notary and have it notarized, and that isnt very expensive at all. you can also stipulate in said document who would be the guardian of yer children.. and considering theyd be minors if they needed a guardian.. id suggest also making said person executor and in charge of yer estate as well to see to it things are devided equally and fairly between yer kids when they become of age.

my kids seem to think i should but i keep telling them theres no use as im already almost out of money and have given them all they're gettin already. so why should i?

yes i did this a while back it good to get this done while it,s on your mine so your family will know what to do if something should happen to you,

I would like to leave something for my children before I go. As it is, I am so poor that I cannot leave them anything as of now. It is a good think God has not killed me yet. Cheers!!

Making a will is one thing that we all push to the back of our heads, as we all think that it wot happen to us. I mean I'm only 27, why should I be thinking about a will, in theory I have the rest of my life ahead of me and should be planning for that. Why should I be thinking about planning a will. The tough part is deciding who gets what and having witnesses to sign it and getting a good solicitor. I wouldn't know where to start on beginning a will. Its not easy to get information about starting your will is it??

My husband had his will as well as mine drawn up by his neice who is an elder care attorney, so she did not charge us, (How lucky is that?!) Before getting married, my will was in the hands of an attorney hooked up with my Union, at no cost. Anyway, it is imperative to have a will, an executor, and a plot (cemetery). Otherwise, if you die without a will, as my mother did, your Estate - and/or State government - will dispose of money and/or property.
