Even if you don't want anyone knowing your business while alive, make a list of accounts, insurance, bills, who owes you money, and where they are. If there's a pre-paid funeral set up, it's important to know about that fast. Also leave a list of passwords for any social media accounts so they can be closed down. Make sure beneficiaries for 401k, IRAs, life insurance still make sense - the beneficiary takes precedence over what any will says.<br /><br />Sorry about your friend...

We all like to think we're invincible and too young to have to worry about such things, but your friend is proof that we do indeed need to take care of it.Magpie's Mumblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852241848575954128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8458995441204559691.post-67941899234004032812021-09-26T17:46:38.213-06:002021-09-26T17:46:38.213-06:00Well, we are all here for you too, in a way.
