So dear old Dad is getting on a bit and Mum is starting to get a little worried as he handles all the finances including a number of investments. She doesn't have a clue what and where and even if he was willing to involve her she won't have a clue. I was discussing this with SWMBO and she admitted she was also a little concerned she doesn't know everything I do. I've tried involving her but she just can't cope with it all..
A compromise might be that as much information as possible can be documented and held somewhere and then this is regularly updated. That way there is full clarity without other halves needing to understand too much and Dad get's keeps his little world to himself for now.
Has anyone else done this with parents or indeed between partners? Is this part of the Wills process and just have to make an effort to keep up with it or is there a better way out there?
TIA
