[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 50 with older teenagers and we never got around to making a will. We don't have much in the way of assets but [b]the big mental block was we never could think of who would take care of the kids if we both died[/b]. [/quote]

This seems like the most important part of the will when you have kids...[/quote]

and that's why we never got a will done.  [/quote]

This [b]borders on negligence.[/b] Shame on you. Time to grow up.[/quote]

Yeah, considering something like 60% of people don't have wills...I don't think PP is alone in this. What we did when we were experiencing that mental block is to write down all of our wishes and contingencies for guardianship and made sure our beneficiary designations were all up to date with primary and contingencies and had P.O.D. for all non-retirement accounts. That way some money would be available immediately and our wishes/thinking were written down.  It wasn't fully "responsible" but it was where we could get in the middle ground before we made a decision.  We eventually got the estate plan pulled together and it was easier for having done this thinking over time.  [/quote]
