因为爱,你值得!

有人说我傻,年纪轻轻就去立遗嘱,
什么保险背景都没有,在当时没有人带领我,
也没有现有的大客户,
更选在身怀六甲的时候,往这行业里冲

真的,我当时是挺着大肚子上课、考试,
你可以叫我的孩子是遗嘱宝宝呗
她刚会认字的时候,一看到R,就会说“遗嘱”

Nominating Minors for EPF

Is this a good idea? 

This article is copied from LegalWillsMalaysia.com due to all info sent from them are so useful, I do not quote any single part. 

Many EPF contributors especially those with children, nominate their EPF money in this manner. They usually give a larger portion to the spouse (eg 60% to 80%), and the remainder goes to their children equally. This is not an issue if all your children are above the age of 18 years old.

On the other hand, if any your children is below the age of 18, then it can be an issue. For any child below the age of 18, they have to wait until they are 18 year old. Their share of the money will be held by the public trustee. 

If you have prepared well financially i.e. sufficient insurance money to cover house loans, car loans, living expenses etc, then the portion of money is usually not that crucial. The funds becomes quite crucial if your family is not that well off and your children need the money. Do not forget that when one person dies, a dual income family, becomes a single income family, and a single income family may be a no income family.

It becomes a big problem if you and your spouse dies together. Since both spouses nominated each other, a large portion of that money is stuck until your children either get  a Grant of Probate (if you have written a Will) or the Letter of Administration (if you did not write a Will). Your children will not be able to access that money you nominated your spouse to get for quite a while. Applying for a Grant of Probate can take anything from 6 to 9 months. Getting the Letter of Administration is even longer because the need for sureties and appointing a suitable administrator.

It is better not to include children below the age of 18 in your EPF nomination. You can name your children as back up beneficiary in your Will, in the event your spouse dies as the same time. That way, the executor and trustee of your Will, can access all the EPF funds once the Grant of Probate is out, and your children get to use the money.

Property Management After Death

The following info is extracted from "Property Management After Death in Malaysia". I copy and paste in here in case this link broken some day later. Besides, this is copy directly from the source page as the whole passage is SO SO SO IMPORTANT and nothing can be left alone.

The majority of us, in regards to property, have a general understanding of purchasing, selling, and renting our properties. But what about managing property that was left behind by the deceased? What happens to it? The general consensus is that it goes to the next of kin or appointed successor.

The ease of the testamentary transfer, the process of managing property(s) of a deceased person, is decided on whether a Will was left behind by the person. If no Will was left behind, the property(s) would be administered to his/her next-of-kin, in compliance to Section 6 of the Distribution Act of 1958.

However, with a Will, there may be a clearer choice of distribution of the property(s), whereby certain properties are specifically administered to certain beneficiaries of the Will.

Can we disown a child in Malaysia?

Question:
My brother has gambling problems and has borrowed a lot of money from my father in many occasions.

Recently, they went into an argument which resulted in my father publishing in the newspaper to disown him.

According to your previous publication, if a person passes away without a Will, his children will be able to inherit.

So in this case, is my brother still considered a child of my father and therefore eligible to be one of the heirs even after such publication in the newspaper?
