Discussion What’s in the note you leave behind

[Janebb]

What do you think you would include in your final goodbye?

 

[Frank]

Saying sorry and making sure they realize it's not their fault. I'm also planning on making a seperate letter to each of my close family members and to my best friend.

I like the idea of individual notes.

 

[Lilanel]

I, too, wrote individualized notes for each loved one.

I also have a note which details some information that might be hard to come by once I'm dead. Passwords, bank account information, things like that.

I learned that in my state as long as the Will is handwritten and signed by the individual there is no need for it to be notarized. Good to know for everyone. It's state by state so it's worth the research.

I'm kinda torn about which passwords I should give because some of them would be nice for them to have but wil probably reveal some of the worst things i've done. The question is should I even care or does the reveal do more harm than the usefull info and access would benefit them.

Wills don't need to be notarized, they need to be witnessed.

Some states allow holographic wills, which is a fully handwritten and signed note by the testator (you). Sounds like yours does, which is awesome. Mine doesn't, which is annoying.

I wrote down passwords to bank accounts, credit card accounts, anything they might want to access for legal or financial reasons. I also gave the password to my phone and computer, but I plan to scrub those of any embarrassing stuff beforehand. One benefit to CTB is planning.

Might aswel nuke my phone and pc hahaha

LOL, yeah, I've considered that. I figure they might want to keep the pictures on the phone, videos, stuff like that, otherwise I'd do a factory reset on both. I mean, how much will they really want to investigate the porn I was into?

Yea on top of that with a lot of social media you can use your phone to access them without needing a password since they just send a code to your phone. Which means access to all my messages etc

What about the Cloud? Will people have access to all of that? Does that need to be cleaned too?

If they have your phone they can most likely access it
