An interesting topic. Have you made one?
We’ve made one that I like, a fair divide all round until…
A couple of younger lads have spotted an investment opportunity that piques my interest.
€20k between them isn’t hurting any of us, I’d be greenlighting it, no worries. I’m in.
It won’t impact on any of them, just a general enquiry.
How would you like to be remembered? I was thinking Of Starting this thread today but thought it might be a little negative. I’d like to think when I die people will say if there was more fellas like Barney around the world would be a better place.
But we have loads of Barneys already? Cc @applecrumbled @ramblerred and all the boys
We’d one made when we bought the house. Fairly straight forward one. Haven’t enough kids to start the really Machiavellian will making yet
Did it after the first diagnosis last year.
Out of curiosity if I dropped dead tomorrow where
Would my money go? To my parents or what?
What’s the breakdown between wife/kids?
I say 50/50 but wife says 2/3 her 1/3 kids.
Also what’s the gig on wedding/engagement rings? I paid top dollar for hers and her sister has already ‘claimed’ the rings if she goes (her only sister and wife is godmother to her daughter) but it doesn’t sit easy with me at all.
I was discussing this with a work colleague recently.
If you dropped dead and had money in a online betting account. Would the money be gone? Assuming family have no access to emails etc.

As an ultracrepidarian.
Presume it would Change as the kids get older and your wife.
If you died without a will it would be 2/3 to your wife and 1/3 in equal shares to the children
Unless they knew where it was they wouldn’t even know to go looking for it
Yes
The wedding rings would be part of the “estate” unless she had em gone before anyone knew.
She sounds capable
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that
It wouldn’t, but if you had an adult child who predeceased you their share would go to their children in equal shares (if they had any).
Always important to make sure your solr knows about all insurance policies etc…let them know if you have death in service benefits with employers etc. I dont think many be proactively be coming looking to pay out
It belongs to your wife so she can do as she pleases with it in her will. If she doesn’t state anything about it, it would go to whoever is gifted the residue (probably you). If your wife died without a will, it would be part of the estate divided between you and the kids, the sister-in-law would have fuck all claim to it.
Where there’s a will there’s a row and where there’s no will there’s a war
Right. Putting this thread on ignore now. Not that theres anything wrong with it. Just not currently in the mood to facing up to my mortality at the moment.
Anyone else for the last few choc ices?
