Why it’s Really Important that you get a Will?
Your Funeral Arrangements could be up for manipulation
When you have a Will, the Executor is empowered to make all necessary decisions relating to your funeral, be it burial or cremation. If you do not choose an executor, your body could be left in limbo while your family fights it out over what should be done with it.
The wrong choice of executor can mean that your body or ashes are used as a bargaining tool between warring family members where some family members are denied the option to visit your resting place because of remoteness, or even, as I have once experienced, the ashes scattered in a private garden of the executor, where some siblings were not allowed to visit. People really do fight over the strangest things.
If you want to be able to rest in peace, choose the right executor in your Will. Our Online Will can easily help you with this concern.
If you want to rest in peace, it’s up to you to make it happen.
There may be no-one to look after your kids at first.
You can appoint a guardian for your kids if you pass away before they are adults. You should check with your nominated choice to ensure that they are willing to do it.
If you don’t appoint someone as guardian, who will look after them? Could your parents and in laws be fighting to take the kids? Or maybe no-one steps up to the task because you never had the conversation! Either way your kids could suffer terribly, not only by losing their parent but feel hurt that you didn’t take the time to take a simple step to look after them.
Take care of all the details before you pass away, and you never know when that will be, so do it now, as this will prevent a lot of suffering, and protect their mental health. Most parents would spend a couple of hundred dollars to protect the life long mental health of their kids, I hope.
Our easy Online Will, takes no time at all, and can prevent a lot of possible damage to your children’s well-being.
The government could get their hands on your money.
If you don’t have any immediate family, your assets could be surrendered to the government. If you want your money to pass to a friend or charity, you need to write a Will. There is just no way around it.
Because you’re an adult and should be responsible for yourself
As harsh as it may be to say, as an adult we are all responsible for cleaning up our own messes and sorting out our own affairs. So many people believe that seeing as they will be dead, it will be someone else’s problem to deal with their things once they are passed. While at the same time resenting others for leaving their messes for them to clean up. Don’t be that guy!
Writing a Will is just the right thing to do. Our online Will can easily help you with this, quickly and easily.
