If you don't have a will and you drop dead, the children's court appointed trustees (in your case likely to be their mother) will have to go to court to be able to use the funds you have left for them before they are 18.Originally posted by SimonMac View PostSerious subject, but do you have a will? Now that my finances are sorted I am actually worth more dead than I am alive, I am single but have kids. I know technically they will get everything whether I write it down or not, but I suppose having it all done officially will save a lot of hassle when my ex kills me
If you have a new partner and more children later on it will get even more complicated especially if the older ones are 18 or over."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Did 'mirror wills' about 20 years ago. Hubby never got his signed.
Updated them about 10 years ago. Hubby never got his signed.
I've now shredded mine, because I don't see why I should make life easy for him if he doesn't extend the same courtesy to me. Got a copy on the computer, so if he does his, I'll redo mine.Comment

Damn right, what were you thinking marriage is, some sort of relationship where you care about each other? When you die that'll teach him a lesson.Originally posted by mudskipper View PostDid 'mirror wills' about 20 years ago. Hubby never got his signed.
