A UNIVERSAL PROBLEM Every hour of every day, there are people around the world who struggle to find things. They look for things that don't exist or look for things that do exist but have no idea where to find them.When a family member dies, the problems begin.It's often a family or close friend who inherit the daunting task of finding important papers without knowing whether or not they exist and if they do exist, where to find them. They may need to find a birth certificate, marriage certificate, insurance policies, house deeds, mortgage papers and so on. Sometimes they'll look for papers that have been lost or mislaid. Sometimes they'll search for hours or days looking for something that doesn't actually exist. They'll search for answers to questions such as: Did he/she have a Will? What were their final wishes? How about their views on organ donation? Did they have life insurance? (25% never get paid out because the policy can't be found!) Did they have savings or investments? Where might they have kept a record of passwords? Where would they have kept bank account details? How many pensions do they have? What were their previous addresses? Where are the house deeds?Did they enter into an equity release scheme? What were their final wishes regarding cherished possessions or funeral arrangements? Sadly, too few people write these things down and family and friends may never know what their dying wishes were.
CAN THE PROBLEM BE AVOIDED? The answer is YES. The solution is a simple one. It's a book with the self-explanatory title: WHERE TO FIND THINGS WHEN I'M GONE. The book comprises ninety pages, which, after being filled in by the owner, explains precisely where to find things when I'm gone. Problem solved.
