Leave everything to the spouse (and children)?
Leave all physical belongings to spouse and divvy up cash between spouse (and children), parents and siblings?
Wouldn't you be screwing your parents and siblings out of money if you just left everything to your spouse (and children)? I'm sure most people would outlive their parents, but it's good to put a clause in there in case they are still alive.

I don't have a spouse either....
I am mostly concerned about my brother because he has no family or money besides my parents.... I am common-law with my partner but don't feel it is fair that he should get everything. I am quite young, in my 20's.

I am leaving everyhting to my son. I don't have family or a husband, and even if I did, it would still go to my son.
When my mom died when I was 16, she had $100k life insurance policy. She divided it 3 ways to my 2 borthers and me. She left my step-dad as Executor of the trust. Well he remarried within a year and we never saw a penny. By the time I was old enoug to want to pursue it, it was past the statute of limtations.
So, just be sure you trust whoever is in charge of safeguarding your trust. I learned it the hard way, but my child won't

My family, meaning my husband AND child are MY FAMILY and screwing over my siblings or parents is not a concern. My husband and child come first !!!
If something should happen to all three of us then my siblings get next dibs on my crap I leave behind.

via fact maximum church homes are money-hungry firms. in the experience that your have faith that God created the earth and you haven't any longer any relatives or relatives individuals to bypass away your sources to, then examine and hit upon a worth reason that's all bearing directly to the renovation of the planet. Or one that permits deprived toddlers. Do your examine, do no longer enable some grubby money-grabbing church take your confusing-earned sources from you. Ask them what they plan to do with the money? i'm helpful you need to locate a much better use for it. They (the church homes) are pilferers.

Well you assume that your parents are well off with social security and retirement plans. Its recommend to do this only if you don't trust your spouse or if your parents depend on you for their income.

Their Church.
You are confused.
Parents are supposed to give everything to their children when they die. Not the other way around.

you shouldn't just write the will and forget about it...you should expect to make revisions from time to time, if your family makeup changes.
