Yes, it's holiday week so why not take the time to plan for your own 'passing on' and put your financial affairs in order. It's simple to make a will and ensure that your inheritance goes to those you want and not the tax man.
And with flu more virulent than any time since 2000, who knows when it'll be your turn to meet the grim reaper in A&E? A drunk-driver could take your life in moment this Boxing Day, but basic life assurance could keep the children from the poor house.
Merry Xmas everyone!:beer:

How about living a long, full and purposeful life, filled with good times, good friends & family and enjoying yourself. You stick with yours, i'll stick with mine every time.
Merry Christmas to you to!0 -

Gordon Bennett, I thought my OH was the biggest 'bah humbug' around! He's postively merry by comparison...

Terrible things can happen, but there not really in our hands (if they were, we wouldn't let them happen!).
So can't mope around all the time - just gotta crack on as they say.
Happy christmas and new year people :-)My suggestion and/or advice is my own and it is up to you if you follow it, please check the advice given before acting on it.0 -

Well we've just sold our nuclear weapons making facilities to the Yanks - that's enough to ensure brown courderoy trousers are high on my Christmas wish list.0

No, for engineers the glass is twice the size it needs to be.
Quite an odd thread but don't let the humour hide the fact that you need a will.
Also, with online banking, online share dealing and the rest of the online stuff you can do with your money (lottery account etc.), mke sure you let someone know where the money is. I wonder how much will simply disappear when people die - could this be the next big scandal?
