Do you have a Will for when you pass on.

Nightwing · 08-31-2004, 01:31 PM

Do you have a Will with exact specifictions in the time of your death.

Melusine · 08-31-2004, 02:18 PM

I do, but it's not an official one. Doesn't need to be as I'm dirt poor

but I felt it would be important for my loved ones to know I had thought about them all, remembered them and left them all some of my possessions that I know they'd like to have. The other reason I wrote some stuff up is because music is incredibly important to me and I wanted to put black on white my wishes with regard to the music played at the funeral.
I don't think it morbid at all to consider these things, all it does is make sure there will be as little trouble as possible for your relatives in case you might die.

100% of nothing is still nothing.

Nightwing · 08-31-2004, 03:15 PM

I'm thinking more on the lines of having a Will for purposes when you are in a coma or some state where you would want someone to take you off life support. Without one it would be up to family members to make those decisions for you and that can be pretty tough on them.

Timber Loftis · 08-31-2004, 03:27 PM

That's called a living will, Nightwing.

Nonsense. In your case, the rights to your music alone are very valuable. Not necessarily in monetary terms but possibly even in those.
I have a negative credit in my bank account, but I have many books and CDs and clothes which I have selected with care and which I know my sister, my mother, and others would love to have to remember me by. There's almost always something to bequeath, doesn't have to be worth a lot of money.

Right! Well, I have that written down too in this document. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Also whether I want my organs donated and stuff.

Yorick · 08-31-2004, 06:11 PM

True.

Illumina Drathiran'ar · 08-31-2004, 06:30 PM

Not as such... There are only two people in my life worth leaving things to, and they know who they are. They can hammer out the details amongst themselves.

Doesn't matter if one have a will or not. Greedy people will always bring up the matter to the court to overthrow the content in the will and sometimes actually win. imagine that.
