a will admits mortality and the eventual end of life in a body it also represent age. some do not like to admit they are growing and being old is insulting to many women and death is fear to most.... so to put in writing a will is a way to recognize how old one has become. how far away their youth is.

Great, I'm the executor of both my parents as well as my uncle/aunt. I guess it's not good to be the "responsible one" and that I chose accountancy as my profession.
This ought to compound the misery of the grieving process.

Not much time for the grieving process as it starts with a meeting with the funeral director (obit, viewing time, pick the coffin, etc). Then the church, funeral service at cemetary or cremation and then the after funeral lunch. Thank you cards up next and now its time to meet with the Estate Attorney and real estate agent.
Clean out the house and list it for sale. You're selling the house because you're the executor. Ever go thru that process? Negotiations, home inspection, another lawyer, closing crap, hidden nonsense like septic inspection, buried fuel tank, gray property lines, UGH! What a PITA.
I dont recall all of the paperwork required by the state but it sucked. File this, submit that. Oh yeah, i'm from NJ just like you. Distribution of assets and dealing with anyone who belives they got short changed.
Any minors getting an inheritance that the deceased doesnt want distributed till a certain age or earmarked for something specific? You guessed it, the Executor is responsible to set up a fund or something similar unless thats already spelled out. You would think thats a no brainer when writing the will but not always.
The Estate Attorney asked me if i wanted to get paid to be the Executor and being "the good son " I said no, just like you will Slob. Now i know why they asked.

Yes, great post by Goggles. Makes you open your eyes. See things from a very different perspective. My father is 90 years old. Everybody was telling me to get "power of attorney". Blah blah blah. Then an attorney friend was discussing this and says, "wait a minute here", you've got a will in place just leave it alone. The only thing that power of attorney does is make you legally responsibable for everything the State wants done their own way. Makes you have to account for every penny you spend. Every breath you breathe. FTS.

You're wise beyond your years slob. It really,Fact I'd almost go as far as to say the "executor" process and responsibility is almost as bad as the loss, it'll will drive a man to drink, and I mean drink hard and fast. There's no time to properly grieve at all and when you do, nobody gives a rat's fuk, as long as they get their proportionate share.. NIGHTMARE, THANKLESS HELL it is.

I had a friend that passed from a heart attack (Stress induced) at 45 last month. Great all around dude and was in good shape and very active.
He had a thriving artificial turf business here in LA. Multiple out of state investment properties with lots of valuable personal property i.e. small vintage yacht he was refurbishing, several high end vehicles and racing motor cycles all paid for and flush with cash.
In January he had a baby with his fiance and I sold him their "forever home", a 1.5 million house he paid cash for in the same week.
He had so many irons in the fire and never rested for a second, whether work or play. When he had free time he was racing motocross at a high level.
They were going to get married soon and that's when he told me he was planning to slow down a bit and start enjoying things with the new family. He never got the chance.
I was surprised there was no will because he was very detailed about everything particularly business and finances.
For whatever reason his family has cut off his fiance so her friends had to set up a gofundme so she can hang on until it all goes through probate. It will get messy since they were not married. I know he would have wanted his fiance and kid to be well taken care of but the family seems to think otherwise.
Moral of the story: It is never too early not to draw up a will no matter how young you are.
