If he's not competent to make a will though, then he's not going to be competent to sign a POA, I wouldn't have thought. You have to have capacity to enter into a POA.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

I have a very strong feeling of deja vue about this thread......................I'm smiling because I have no idea what's going on ...:)0

I'm not a troll if that's what you are thinking, Errata. Not sure how I can prove I am not one but feel free to pm me and I'll tell you my other ID if that would help.
Thanks for the link and advice, I will read up on that link and get my sibling to contact them.0 -
Nope, I doubt his children are gold diggers, she's never mentioned inheritence, if you read her post they are worried this woman is going to take advantage of their dad.getridgolddigger wrote: »My sibling wants to get something done so that if our father does pass away we have paperwork ready to stop her taking his money.
The money is no good to him after he is dead. They aren't trying to protect his interests, they are protecting their own.poppy100 -
No it doesn't, it sounds like they are trying to protect their father and yes, their inheritence, what's wrong with that?
Plenty wrong with that. He is a grown man, able to make his own decisions, who can no doubt take care of himself and hold his own. He doesn't need protecting and neither does his money. I hope he enjoys the rest of his life to the full, spends the lot and that the only thing he leaves his children are his best wishes.
That is all my dad plans to leave me and good on him. I dont need to inherit his money later on to secure my future I can do that by myself and so should the OP.The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.0 -
If she's after his money, I hope he has the time of his life!0

if you are not worried about the inheritance, what exactly are you worried about/ do you think she is abusing him - if so, you are right to be concerned. but if not, I can't really understand what the actual problem is.0

How old is the sibling who expects to get your Dad's money?
What is this sibling doing to protect 'her money' from this 'gold-digger' (I mean other than you posting here for advice)?0
