Wills, got one? (1 Viewer)

[dleacht]

I don't have a will...I don't have anything except debts and books and cds/records that might be worth a few quid. Reckon once I have a kid I'll do a will up.

I do want to donate my organs and be buried in an eco-coffin though, that much I do know.

You should check out said website

I'll do one up when I have something worthwhile to leave.
I don't care how I'm disposed of, and certainly wouldn't impose myself on the funeral, which should be conducted in whatever way one's family or loved ones see fit.

Who thinks up this stuff? Is there a website for everything at this stage?

Bill Drummonmd, that's who.

Can a Thumped post be considered a last will and testament?

yes

If so, who wants my small collection of racist anthropology/ethnology books? I'll throw in a 19th-century slang dictionary and a bunch of Victorian 'duties of woman' stuff, and my book on the apparition of Our Lady of Knock.

Me, please.

Mr Jane will want to keep the shrieking chimpanzee head, but he has always hated my Kiss nesting dolls, so probably someone can have those as well. To remember me by.

I declare that I am sound.

Jane.

Yeah, i'll allow that. This is legally binding under the thumped user agreement.

Score.

The Origin of Races by Carleton S. Coon is the jewel of a friend's collection.

Making a will should be something you do at a major (financial) crossroads in your life, such at getting married/divorced or buying a house. I haven't managed to buy a house yet and so have not bothered making a will.

Your will doesn't actually contain any directions for what stuff you want to happen/music to be played at your funeral. You know that right?

I bought a will in Easons a few years back.Grand yoke.Its easy to fill out and you just stick it in a drawer and wait for it to come good.

i wouldn't mind being fired off into space so a few billion years in the future, some rad aliens could clone me and start the human race again, consisting entirely of froog variants.

i'm leaving my body to sexy women. hopefully they'll find a way to resurrect me mid ride

 

[Space]

I want my body to be given to science and then the left overs fucked in the sea for all the different fishes to eat.

A sky burial would be pretty cool too. Would it be too gross to post pics of a sky burial?

How long after people die are wills usually read? And what happens if there's no will?

 

[Scientician 0.8]

Within a month or so usually. I believe that in the absence of a will specifying stuff that your estate "defaults" to your next of kin.

it depends on how the person died. If its a 'conventional' type death then it can happen quite quickly. The solicitor will apply for a grant of probate, and as soon as that comes through the will can be 'read'.

If the person died in an unnatural way (definition of 'unnatural' is that the death will require a cause to be determined by a coroner - typically in the coroner's court), it can take longer. A will cannot be read until the cause of death is determined.

I think. I had to go through this shite once. I can't remember the details. Most people can't. Its a bit of a total mindfuck to have to deal with legal red tape like this while also trying to come to terms with grief. Its a load of bollocks really.

Where there's a will, there's a way.
