Make Your Will If you don't have a simple will, get one. They're not hard to create, and many people feel comfortable doing it themselves, with an Attorney advising them. Children If you have children under 18, name a personal guardian for them in your will. If both you and the other parent were unavailable, the local court would follow your wishes and appoint this person. Assets Your will says who gets what after your death. You can make it simple—"everything to my children, to share equally"—or leave specific items to specific beneficiaries. You don't have to leave anything to family members if you don't want to, but if you're married, know that a disinherited spouse could probably claim some of your assets. 2. Create Durable Powers of Attorney and a Living Will Although it's not pleasant, take a minute to think about the possibility that at some time, you might become incapacitated and unable to handle day-to-day financial matters or make healthcare decisions. If you don't do anything to prepare for this possibility, a judge might have to appoint someone to do these things for you. No one wants a court's intervention in such personal matters, but someone must have legal authority to act on your behalf. 3. Check Your Beneficiary Designations You've probably already named beneficiaries to inherit certain property from you. For example, when you signed up for a retirement plan at work or bought a life insurance policy, you were likely given a form on which to name a beneficiary. Now is a good time to revisit that paperwork. A surprising number of people never bother to update it, even when death or divorce of the original beneficiary means they should name someone else.
