Why didn't you demand peppylady's qualifications? Some of the words in her replies are very familiar. In fact, why don't you ask her who has helped her the most with her moronic brother.

Once you start attacking members that know their stuff, that's when you stop receiving help from those here who do know their stuff volunteering their time to help you for free. There's nothing I disagree with by the members with which you chose to disclaim. When posters do not obtain an answer that they want, they get annoyed over receiving the correct advice.

Sorry, I don't assist posters who don't want to take advice that is correct.

Just want you to know that a person's will is set in stone unless someone can prove it was written under duress. That is hard to prove and the person alleging this will have the burden of proof. Maybe I was wrong. My advice to you is to stop thinking and worrying about your father's will. Enjoy your dad. Spend quality time with him make everyday worth while. You will not regret it. I spent the most wonderful 95 days with my dad until he got sick and passed away suddenly. I never thought about his will, his house or any money he had. I have great memories of my dad. I thought a person's will was private and should not be read until that person passes away. I had an Aunt once that said she was leaving everything to her son in her will, well she didn't when her will was read she left everything to her next door neighbor except 100.00 she left to her son. He couldn't contest the will because he was mentioned in the will. If a child is left out of a will that can be contested. Good luck and hope you have a lot of years left with your dad. Treasure them!

Oh BTW...I am not an attorney. I am a nurse. I have learned a lot from these wonderful posters here. BlondiePB has gotten me through some tough times. I never knew anything about wills or probate until I had a problem and came to the forum for some support. They are very helpful.

I'm sure some of the people here have knowledge that is helpful but not all. The problem is that once they become a so called "senior member" which is to say they respond to a large number of posts, they think they are an authority. Some have even asked probing questions, like why do I think I should get the entire inheritance. While they don't know the situation, the parents wishes, or even bother to read my post thoroughly. Cause they would've determined that it was my parents wishes. They just form an opinion in which to make fun of the situation. I came here to get genuine thought on the subject & so far all I got from thisd forum was criticism, one guy trying to get me to mail him $100 for his "ideas" & some info from a "lawyer" which was false & misleading, cause I checked with the State of New Jersey, Dept of Inheritance.
My dad & I continue to have terriffic times together despite his age, & we don't dwell on this stuff. It is his wishes that once he passes on that I, not my siblings, get what's left. We both want the least amount of hassle if & when that day happens. That is why he put all his bank account, securities, IRAs & annuities, TOD, POD, & beneficary to me. But the people here don't bother to read that!
Anyway what I want to know is after the passing of one parent, is it a good idea to have a lawyer redraw a new will, in which is mentioned, the passing of the spouse & specific REASON(S) why he just wants me to be his executor & sole beneficiary? The main "REASON" is he doesn't approve of their spending habits & nobody can question what he wants to do with his money. I'm going to do EVERYTHING to make sure his wishes are carried out. If anyone wants to answer here, don't question WHY just let me know HOW to do this. Please!! The estate is valued under the current $675,000 estate tax threshold for New Jersey

The very FIRST reply to your thread was to see an attorney and have this done.

Why are you posting here, you have no info to add

 

[peppylady]

Yes I agree. See an attorney and make sure it is done right. But I want to say one thing. I could never to this with my dad. If I knew my kids were thinking about my estate before I died it would kill me. Good luck!

The only reason it is being discussed is because right after mom died the greedy siblings of mine tried to put the touch on pops & he came back to me with the story. Can you believe it!!
