About this episode

TW: This episode briefly mentions death & suicide

There are three certainties in life, death, taxes and change, and in this episode we cover all three!

If you’ve ever wanted to know what happens when you dies and what words like estate, testator, beneficiary, executor, intestate, probate, will and trustee mean, then this is the episode for you!

Alongside David Andrew, Senior Adviser at State Trustees (Victoria’s public trustee), Kate explores everything from what’s necessary for a valid will and creating an asset register, to some of the common mistakes people make when preparing their will and what happens if you or a loved one dies without one.
