Anything that can go wrong, will (pun intended).

This is not for everyone, but may provide a little R&R if you need a break from dealing with the real world of being an executor, willwriter, or beneficiary/heir-in-waiting.  It’s a hodge-podge of odd (sometimes very odd) information, a few famous quotes and maybe a quiz or two along the way.  And enjoy (perhaps not quite the right word) interviews along the Excruciating Executor Experience scale: you're not alone if you have an executor tale of woe.

May 2024:  Keith Evans, besides being a golf and hockey fanatic (and great boss), is a senior operations executive in the financial services industry, with extensive experience in clearing and settlement, corporate actions, and project management. He knows stuff about systems, technology, how to fix things, and yet he's the first to acknowledge the potential downside of not knowing what we don't know.  Listen to Keith wax eloquent about how what he didn't know about a power of attorney (POA) could have led to an outcome that many might see as fair, but that was not right given his role of POA.
