Just that simple.
Everything else, really a house and things like that should probably be in a trust.
However, I just want to say something.
All of you, all of you have this in your mind.
How do I get my assets to my beneficiaries without probate the fastest?
You're not thinking about yourselves.
Stop thinking just about your beneficiaries.
