Why Do I Need a Will #258

April 17, 2023

Even subconsciously, the question surely pops into most people's heads; "Why Do I Need A Will?"

Given that a large percentage of the human race is reluctant to take action now that will benefit their future self, it is no surprise to hear that the majority of people in Ireland haven't made a Will (which will benefit their heirs and loved ones, and not themselves!). The Farmer's Journal put that figure at 70% of Irish people do not have a Will as of 2022.

In this week's episode, in an effort to shift that needle, I will share with you 7 Important considerations in making a Will.
