As most of you know, my husband passed away last Sept from cancer. He had a will...unfortunately. Two weeks ago the will was finally sent to probate.....and now will take a year or more to process SO it will be close to TWO YEARS after his death before I can touch any of his stocks, bonds, money or sell his 2 boats or his 2 vehicles.....anything and everything that was his is untouchable! Even though I am the heir to his estate.....tough times, rice and beans time, no extras time... I am talking about my 5 daughters and I living on Social Security and part of a military retirement pay since his death and for the next year. I had to pay court filing fees and the 2 lawyers have mounds of bills for me to pay........ to them. The lawyers are the only winners in this game. Wills?.....phooey!
