I know, I know, I NEED a will? Not any will but a $400 lawyer-written will. Yada, yada.
But why?
I read the why-you-need-a-will articles but I still get confused when the Ted Williamses of the world make the news.
Ted Williams had a will and the court ignored it because of something scribbled on a napkin. What was the POINT? (His estate is back in the news since the wicked son died and the daughter has come forward again.)
I guess even a homeless man with no possessions, relative or friends needs a will because he might get hit on the head by an engine that has fallen off that L-1011 that just took off. And this will result in Millions going to his estate. And then where do these millions go?
But, assuming simple possessions are already in children's names ... all bank accounts set up to go to kids and kids are already on deed ... why can't I just write somthing up myself, have a couple witnesses, get signatures notarized?
Anyone have a will that they wrote themselves? Are you a fool? I asume not.
