1. <sigh> Chadwick Boseman, the Black Panther star if you don't get out of the house much, died without a will.

Guys, SERIOUSLY, please go get a will (and a trust, if you need one) TODAY.

Here are the top 3 reasons why you need this:

A. So what YOU want to happen, happens.

2. Without a will, the state gets involved and makes decisions FOR you. (Bastards!)

B. Making your family go to court for this SUCKS. A trust can avoid a lot of this, and is an act of LOVE for those you care about, because it makes less work for them.

3. Finally,

C. It keeps things from getting messy.

Look, people are ASSHOLES when someone dies.

Greed brings out the WORST in people.

I've seen families fight over $3 cans of tuna and want that deducted from a person's 'share' because someone got hungry and made a sandwich.

4. You do NOT want that to be how they remember you, or bring that out in YOUR family.

And, remember, there are famous people like Prince and Jimi Hendrix where they've been gone for years or DECADES and the family is STILL fighting over the money.

5. You know who gets your money in that case?

The lawyers and the courts.

Is that really what you want for YOUR money and YOUR family?

Remember, Chadwick was only 43 when he passed.

You are NOT going to live forever.

Handle this today.

End of rant.
