The Sum of Awe
Brought to you by the moment that spacetime began.
I've been thinking about the possessions I have. I have a car (it's nothing amazing. 2013, over 100 miles on it, has a few issues. probably worth $1000 now) But still I suppose a car is a car.
I have a house, only started paying on it a couple years ago. I'm not sure how that works. Does the house actually belong to me even though it's not paid off? Could I put that in a will and they could sell it and keep whatever money i put into it (if they sold it for what i bought it for?)
I have a savings and checking through a bank. I have a beneficiary set up (not sure if that only applies to all of my accounts or if i need a beneficiary for each)
I think my 401k plan i have through work also asked for a beneficiary. I suppose if I have beneficiaries on things, i don't need to have a will for them right?
That's really all I have. And then all of my possessions within my house of course. But I'm wondering if that can't just take the stuff they want if it's personal items like that?
Should I get a will?
