How many of you actually have a will? Curious about how this community thinks about estate planning.
Long time reader, first time poster.
I've been thinking about this a lot lately — inheritance planning is one of the most financially important things a family can do, but it almost never comes up in personal finance discussions in India.
Some questions I'm genuinely curious about:
→ Do you have a will? If yes, how did you go about making one?
→ If no — what's stopping you? Cost, complexity, just haven't gotten around to it?
→ Have you ever seen a family go through a property dispute after someone passed away without a will?
I'm asking partly because I'm a student who recently lost a family friend to exactly this situation — a messy inheritance dispute that tore the family apart — and it got me thinking about whether there's a simpler way to fix this.
Would genuinely love to hear how this community thinks about it.
