        Why would having other shareholders in your company make things any more or less complicated about what you did with your share?

        I don't know for certain, but I'm pretty sure that Larry Ellison's will isn't additionally complicated because I own shares in Oracle.

            Even if he has, the statement that you need a professional will writer if "you have any shareholders (besides a spouse)" was, and remains, total bollocks.
