421b death + the importance of having a Will

***Trigger warning: this episode explores themes around the death of a loved one. This may be distressing for some listeners.

In June 2020 Rachael’s partner, Tony, died suddenly without a Will. Rachael then had the task of sorting through the details of his estate and her own grief, without any written direction provided. Rachael (based in New Zealand) joined Glen to share her story. Special thank you to Rachael for being so honest and sharing such a personal story.

Rachael also shared the things she learnt and what she wants others to prepare for so they don’t experience what she went through: http://sortyourmoneyout.com/blog/why-you-need-a-will
