when I bought a house my mortgage guy arranged the life insurance for my gf, amusingly told me to lie about being a (casual) smoker “eh they never check, just do it, I did the same for my son, it’ll be fine”

graph posted:the state doesnt care lol idgi? if I die, Mrs Farmer inherits everything. no estate tax here, and if there's no will it's a straighforward inheritance hierarchy spouse > children > parents > siblings. if I can't medical descisions for myself, only my wife can make them for me.

Yeah, w/o a will in a lot of states its half spouse, rest children by default. Also in a lot of states if you hand write your will it doesn't need to be witnessed. Just make sure to date it and people know where it's at.

speaking for america only, if you die and dont leave a will there's a significant likelyhood that your poo poo will be tied up in probate for a good long time, causing hassle and grief for your loved ones. Spend like a half hour on nolo.com or whatever typing up a legal will that makes things very explicit and put it somewhere everyone knows about.

i think that is mostly an american weirdness though, in many other places a will works out the other way. makes the process go from a trivial well-defined transfer into a non-standard legal process

I have dealt with the estates from my parents and grandparent, and the most hassle was to shut down all accounts, subscriptions and memberships. Had do sent in a scanned death certificate and proof of immediate relationship from the Population registry to close my dads fb account.

there was a bestselling book here, soon to be an Amy Poehler tv series : The gentle art of Swedish death cleaning. it’s about how you should throw out all your stuff that nobody cares about after you’re dead, but do it when you are still healthy and at full capacity. get rid of old paperwork, clothes that you don’t wear, the clutter in the kitchen cabinets, books that you won’t read again, digital clutter. leave only the good stuff, and don’t make your poor relatives sort through all your clutter when you’re gone. I know some healty 75-80 yo people who have started death cleaning, and it seems like a liberating process.

it's nice to do that for your surviving family but it's also nice to do for yourself. better to have the space to see everything in your closet than a bunch of poo poo you'll never use again

fart simpson posted:youd rather live in an urn? most common burial practice in Sweden is cremation and then spreading the ashes in a minneslund (lit. memorial grove). the minneslund is a section of the cemetary that's marked and roped off. it looks like a lawn or a wooded park. you leave the ashes with the cemetary, and then a worker will spread or bury the ashes shortly after. you are not allowed to know the exact time, or to be there when they are spread. there are no markers for any people at the minneslund. it's purpously collective and anonymous. at all hallows eve, people visit the minneslund and place candles there. it's a moving sight with november darkness and candles and lanterns everywhere.
