This week for Taking Stock, we heard from Refinery29 readers on their experiences regarding wills and inheritances, and what they did about them.
When Sara's aunt died, she was left $20,000 worth in paintings. Her dad was supposed to look after them until she was able to retrieve them in Michigan, but he ended up stealing them from her."He had a long history ofand we did not have a good relationship my whole adult life," she tells Refinery29."When he died eight years later, I was forced as his next of kin to take responsibility for his cremation, business rent, and obtain the death certificate for his ex-wife.
After he died, Sara's father's will was released to her."He said in the will [that] I was not his daughter and if I had kids, those weren't his grandkids," she says."He completely disowned me. When I was able to go into his house to pick out a few things, I found the majority of the paintings.
"After this and seeing my dad's ex-wife completely botch taking care of his estate, I drew up a will," she says."I'm a small business owner like he was, and my business is a lot more successful than his was, so I knew I needed to spell this all out for the people taking care of my assets when I die."Carmen was the executor for both of her late parents' wills.
