You get someone to do it for you.

A useful reminder for those approaching their dotage to get your power of attorney, wills and care/treatment plans all done whilst you have the mental capacity - plus write down where the money is and how to find it when you're gone.

AND send it to Niemeyjt at Lausanne (and sometimes) Suffolk.

AND - if you're having more than one POA, think carefully about how you distribute their powers. I've just learned that our step-dad's wife insisted on having it "Jointly and Severally" with his two sons.

If you have offspring they'll soon find it.

Spend it on fast cars, loose women, and wine, don't tell the wife about the women bit.

What about loose men? Where are they all?
