I have just added an interesting article to this blog by the Wall Street Journal that I think is well worth reading.
It is clear from this article that having a Will is not all you need to have in place if you want to have all your affairs in order if you were to become seriously ill or pass away.
Who would have thought that there is about USD$39 Billion in unclaimed assets in unclaimed bank accounts and other assets in the USA alone. A significant portion of this will be because in an estate situation no one was aware of the bank accounts or assets.
The article talks about the need for information on proof of purchase, bank accounts, health information, insurance and investment details.
