Legacy
What will you leave behind, for your children and the world? My wife and I have been updating our will this past week. We must all face that most inconvenient of truths: we too shall die. Sooner or later, in sickness or in health, we don’t know. Solicitors ask about assets, which we will pass onto our children. But the more interesting questions are non-financial. Who will inherit my 30 years of diaries and letters? My wife’s jewellery from her mother? The forest charity we will set up? And will the world be a better place because we lived?
