Put it this way, he’s only getting now what he will probably get when we turn our toes up, I have given cash help to both my sons and various other relatives, but I have told them what they get now will be deducted from their eventual settlements, so those not askin for help now will get a bigger lump then those who have tapped us for 5k here 2k there.
Only fair.
Funnily I nearly suggested that. It was what happened when my Gran gave me and 1st wife a bit of money towards the deposit on the first house. but then I didn't feel like reminding anyone of his/her mortality.
My problem is I have no one to leave my dosh to, that is in the family. Bro with serious health probs prolly won't outlive me, his one son, my only living relative that i know about this side of the pond, has just been bought a house by said bruv, with money he inherited from his own dead wife :)rolleyes:) so I don't think he needs any extra, and all Wifey's kids and our grandkids seem to be well off-ish too.
So whatdye do? Dog's trust? and altering wills is SO expensive. We've already done it a time or two.

But yes I think as you get older, your plan makes sense.

As our house is built on a slab we have to drain our system through loads of drain cocks. They are a right pain and as one of the members on here said, one of the @Brian S I think it was, once you've opened the beggars they often leak unless you replace the seal. So now you've got it open it might be an idea to get a pack I got mine from Screwfix. Your favourite shop in which I am sure you now have shares!;):)
