In this video I’m going to discuss my updated list of ten provisions that should not be included in your Will. Ok, so there are a number of important provisions that should be included in your last will and testament, things like how your new will revokes prior wills, any specific assets you wish to leave to specific people, a residuary bequest which covers all the assets not specifically bequeathed in your will, your executor or personal representative who will be in charge of guiding your heirs through the estate settlement process when you die, perhaps testamentary trust provisions to the extent you wish to leave an inheritance to someone in a trust as opposed to outright or in a lump sum, guardians for minor kids if you have minor kids, and there are likely to be a number of other standard or customary provisions in your will.

But I’ve read lots of wills over the years and sometimes I have to shake my head when I read certain will provisions because the will was just not the right place to state what was stated in the will. Here’s ten things that I’ve seen many times in wills that perhaps should not have been there.
