Password is not necessary unless you want your family member to have immediate access to the account. The account information can be mentioned in the list of assets for distribution.

Yes, I remembered last time I wrote all info and put inside desk drawer before I went for COVID-19 Vaccine injection.

First of all, do you have a Will?

I have plans set up if my Google account went offline for 3 months.

An auto email will trigger to a trusted friend, which then will help comb some of my stuff before releasing them to my family members.

any law firm is enough, but ofcoz got some shady law firm will kepo but they cant do anything until after you go home anyway, big ones usually are safe enough and experienced enough but small firms also can geh just depends how much you want to pay them for the trouble only

also the password thing is kinda in a grey area, one hand, its sooooo much easier for family member to access without official help and can action things quicker, if you dont do the password book and they want access then they have to go official route which often involve a very long red tape where they have to show death cert to prove this and that and even then, sometimes service provider wont give access also. i think the same with bank as well, if no joint acc then money gone for some bank but others you will end up 6+ months just to get a bunch of doc and show them and even then they can just say nah dont wanna help

on the other hand, if you settle things correctly, they shouldnt need to access any of it unless they want to get some family item like family pics or some stuff from ur account / computer. so really depends. you dont know what they want to do with ur stuff after you go home so either you make it easier for them or you dont.

i saw some past threads people asked for help to get into so and so account coz they want pic or msg or something but some people comment said, if they didnt prep for you to have access means they dont want you to have access and to just leave it, then it became an issue coz the family member now just want to kepo and chao that person's stuff.

You can write your own will if you are a non-muslim without the need for any 3rd party, except for the 2 witnesses. Read this and also this as your starting point

After that just keep it in a safe place. I think that is where the issue lies, not with the actual writing of the will. Someone must know that you do have a will written, for it to be implemented.

You don't trust your family. Better break ties with them.

Hi Jack, I could not offer any advice because I dont think I have any wills or money for my family. Dont think I would have even at the age of 50s or 60s if I live that long.

But I hope you are doing well and in good health.
Hope you are not planning something
If you need to talk, you can pm me.

what about BTC wallet private key / recovery phrases

what is the best way to keep it away from them while you are alive, but released to them after your death

Hypothetical.... what if you and a sibling both pass on while in the same car wreck? Everything gone forever?

The will is allowed by law to be written by the individual, but I always say the passing on of the information is the issue that has to be figured out
- write a will and keep in the house? What if the house burns down with you in it?
- keep specific information in the cloud? Legality of e-will and passwords to access
- keep will with lawyer/will writing agency? Family must know to contact the correct firm after death
- pass on multiple copies to few people? legality, and must keep track of multiple copies
- give someone/multiple people master password? password changes how?

Don't get me wrong, I also am thinking of how to solve this problem. That's why following this thread for ideas. Right now I have the single copy at home, but I think I am going tp be giving another copy to a trusted friend (who is not a beneficiary) and having a second copy around in case of my passing.
