Wills are important however simple you think your stuff is.

And not just to make your intentions clear but also because people often presume that everything they leave will automatically go to their spouse - and it's not so.

Intestacy rules that while some goes to a spouse, the rest is divided between adult children and, sometimes, even more distant relatives will make a claim. It could mean a spouse being forced to sell their home to pay everyone off.

See this is my point it is still being distributed, just not where you wanted it. It is still going to a younger generation in the form of wages.

Got a will? You ought to get one. I've made one.

Good point I need to update it (but everything goes to my wife at the moment anyway. If anything happened to me if my son was under 18 I would prefer that anyway)

But my Bro as just started dating a will writter, time for a family discount I think:)

I came into this world with nothing. Despite my first wife, I have most of it left.
