We did it. Not really a big deal. I paid a lawyer friend of mine $250 to just write it up and have my wife and me sign it. If you don't have a lawyer buddy, then maybe expect a little more time and a little more money.

For real. Not even your awesome spreadsheets could tell us if he actually ate fast food.
Only if @chick_bleeds_carolina_blue is gonna tail you for a month to verify.
There is no way THN can go even a week without eating fast food. We all know this.
I'm in the crowd of trying to get healthier blah blah blah. Similar to GSD - I'm trying to look at this as a lifestyle change as opposed to a New Year's Resolution. I used to exercise regularly (pretty much daily) but have fallen off the wagon in the last couple years. So my bare minimum goal for the year is 150 workouts (which is roughly 3x per week), and really, 200 (4x per week) should be attainable.
Eating better is a big part of it as well - but I haven't set any strict "dos and don'ts" for that, it'll be on the "I know it when I see it" basis of whether I'm veering too far off course. This actually polices itself with me anyways while working out. If I haven't worked out all week, I have no problem housing a bag of chips, grabbing fast food, etc. But if I keep to my workout schedule I find that I'm much less likely to eat unhealthily because I don't want to ruin the work I put in.

Thanks for catching this. I wondered the same thing when I read it but forgot to ax him about it.
I have thrown in the towel on "your v. you're" as well as "I could care less" but what, pray tell, is your problem with ax?
I typically only sleep a max of six hours a day, sometimes only four, so I'd love to start sleeping more now. I have a very hard time going to sleep before midnight and I have ALWAYS been an early bird and wake up around five everyday. I hate it too!

Sounds like you should start drinking heavily.
Hard to say without knowing more about you're finances and what you want to accomplish.
Lawyers are ok for basic wills. However, I have learned through my job that lawyers are some of the worst people to draw up a will unless they practice law in the trust and estate field. You would be surprised at the amount of stupidity you can find in wills that have been written by lawyers.
I didn't really think there was any ambiguity. It means I don't trust @TarHeelNation11 any farther than you can throw him.What is that supposed to mean???
Someone that has some expertise in the field. Financial planner, trust and estate advisors, etc. That can get kind of tricky though. They can't actually give you legal advice. Basically the way it works is you tell them what you want and they work with your lawyer to make sure he draws up the will correctly to eliminate any mistakes. If you don't have anything complex and you just want something to avoid dying intestate then you can go to a lawyer. Just make sure that's something they specialize in. If the lawyer that draws up your will also deals with speeding tickets you want to go somewhere else.
If I don't catch an std and also die of an enlarged heart by June then you know my New Year's resolution was a bust.
I'm no lawyer but unless your estate is valued in the 10's of millions any good attorney should be able to draw up a will. If you are needing more than one or two trust set up that would be a different story. The important thing is for you and your wife to set down and decide what you want done after you die, after she dies, and after you both die.
I'll probably keep mine at 1280x1024 this year.
The point is the important thing is for you, or you and your wife, decide what you want done. After that, any good lawyer should be able to draw up the will based on what you guys want.
Really? I've been thinking I was going to raise my will to 1440x1280 and ride her out until death do us part.
I didn't indicate I had a problem, I laughed at you replying to his joke the way you did in that poast. Then I played along.
Sorry I was responding to your "Haha, just damn." post. What's wrong with what I said?I didn't indicate I had a problem, I laughed at you replying to his joke the way you did in that poast. Then I played along.
His poast wasn't about a will that time, it was about a display resolution. A play in this thread, not about wills. So your reply was funny, as it would seem silly to think 1280x1024 had something to do with a will. Perhaps you understood that, and knowingly replied to it anyway, but it's still funny to me.
The point I was trying to make is make sure you and your wife set down and decide what you want done and after that it should not be a big deal for any good lawyer to put it into a will.
LOL he still has no clue. The man doesn't own a cell phone though, so you can't blame him.
I have computers and an IPad what's your point?
A LOT of warm, tasty . . . sammiches.What is that supposed to mean???
