I know from my mothers death that it helps to plan. With my mom, she had me and my sister as her executer for her bank and stock accounts but nothing else. We decided (sister and I) that she would handle jewerly and I would handle everything else. It's been almost two years and we have not done anything with the stuff. We need to record everything and then post it so people can decide what they would like to have. As for the money, we divided it amoust all of her kids. It wasnt much.
Because of this, I set up a special needs trust, will, and am in the process of buying my plot. l bought the plot right next to where we buried my mom. I hadnt decided on casket yet but probably should as I dont want to be buried in steel.
My Grams is 90 and my no good brother is living with her. He drives her everywhere. He is driving a beat up car that belonged to my mom (other sister had wrecked it) and Grams refuses to allow him to drive her 30 year old OLDs. Her OLDs has 30k miles on it and I wish it was a Porsche. That would have been sweet. My Grams is quasi-rich but lives in a dump. I hate to think what her will has in it. I have tried to talk to her about her life but she refuses to discuss it. All I can say is 'Oh well and move on.
