He Built Me a She-Shed, and Now He Wants to DIY Everything!
|
Q. My husband, James, retired last year after 35 years of teaching middle school history. He loved to teach, so in his spare time, he now tutors students. Besides tutoring, he loves working with his hands, so he became a Do-it-Yourselfer. To my surprise, for my 60th birthday, he built me a "she-shed," where I often escape to read my favorite historical fiction novels, to quilt, and to display my Lladro figurines (out
of reach of the grandchildren). This was the best gift ever!
James' DIY attitude has carried over to other areas of his life, and it has saved us lots money, in many instances, by not having to hire a handyman, an accountant, or a plumber. Now, James is insisting on doing our estate planning documents on his own. I am thinking that this is a bad idea. I would hate for something to go wrong, and
for my children to have to step in and take care of it when we are no longer around to help. Is there any good DIY estate planning software you would recommend, or can you back me up in saying that we should see an experienced estate planning attorney for such things? Thanks for your help!
Critter Corner: Is the Last Will and Testament Enough?

Dear Angel,
My sister wants to save money on estate planning. She is considering Do it Yourself (DIY) forms that she saw online, or if she does go to an attorney, she said that a Will should be enough. Is that true?
Thanks for your help!
