'Do I need a new will? - I already have one...'
You should review your will regularly - but that doesn't necessarily mean you need a new one.
YOU NEED A NEW WILL IF:
* your will specifies your children by name as beneficiaries and you have had another baby in the meantime;
* your will makes cash gifts that you no longer have the money for unless your house is sold;
* your named executors can no longer act;
* the executor is the Public Trust or a lawyer and you don't want your estate to have to pay the level of fees they will charge;
* your ex-spouse/ex-partner is the executor and your separation/ dissolution happened after the will was made;
* you have married or entered a long-term relationship since making the will;
* you have changed your mind about who gets what, or your will specifies particular property that you no longer own;
* you need to appoint a 'testamentary guardian' for your children, and your current will does not do this.
I hope this helps.
Cheers

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.5% ... It is complicated
