You work hard to build a future for yourself, and the people you love… but if you should pass away without a will in place, your money could end up in the wrong hands – whether it’s a long-lost cousin you’ve never met that suddenly lays claim to your legacy, or having your money tied up in the Government Guardian’s Fund. Either way, you’re no longer there to ensure that it ends up with the people you intended it for and who need it most. Worse yet, it can take years to resolve, with no guarantees that your wishes will become reality. In this episode of On the Money, legal practitioner and tax attorney Yolanda Mnyengeza joins Old Mutual’s Group Head of Financial Education, John Manyike, to unpack what really happens when you die without a will, and why planning ahead is one of the most powerful acts of love you can leave behind.From unexpected claims to complicated estate battles, Yolanda explains how a simple will, can help make sure everything you’ve worked for goes to the right people, at the right time – no surprises, no drama.Thanks for listening!
