Show The Salina Sun We all tend to procrastinate at times. But theres one matter that really shouldn t be put off - making a will! A will simply ensures that our assets are distributed in accordance to our wishes after death. But who wants to think about death? Afterall, youre in yourprime . . .what a depressing subject! The reality is, of course, that anyone, regardless of age or health can die at any time. And if you die intestate - without a will - the state in which you live will, in essence draw up a will for you. The laws regarding intestacy were made to be as fair and equitable as possible - enacted to provide the greatest good for the greatest number. However, by necessity, the law is impersonal, making it highly improbable that its plan of distribution would be in accordance with your desires - your objectives for the future security and well being of your loved ones. ADVANTAGES OF A WILL One of the key drawbacks of the fixed statutory plan for distribution of property under the laws of intestacy is that no allowances are made for the differing circumstances and needs of individual family.

Tidbits Remember those whom the law omits. In most states, if you die survived by a wife and children, your property will be divided among them; others, such as surviving parents or brothers and sisters, receive nothing. By means of appropriate clauses in your will, you can make provision for an aging parent, a favorite niece or nephew, or loyal employee. Deserving charities need not be forgotten. Take full advantage of estate tax savings by creating trusts or assure an equitable distribution of the death tax burden by setting forth specific directions for the payment of these obligations. Appoint the executor of your choice, thus obtaining considerably more flexibility than would be possible if the court appoints an administrator for you. From the Ncphi Times CLAMPING DOWN ON KIDS: Nephis teens and others wont be able to stay out quite so late.

The will, in effect, can be custom made to fit the requirements The primary advantage of a will is that it offers the greatest assurances that your property will pass to those whom you choose. This is because your attorney helps write your will and a judge oversees the transfer of property at your death. A will should not be drawn up and then tucked away until the day of reckoning. It should be reviewed and reevaluated to make sure the wills provisions are still in line with your present objectives.
