[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 25511041, member: 90692"]I think it is common for anyone of “advanced” age to ruminate on their mortality, especially after a health scare episode. Following such you have tendencies to “take care of business”, or organize your affairs. No one knows how much time they have left, that is if you are still healthy with no major impediments. I have no major impediments, but, regarding coins and collecting, I have taken aggressive steps to disseminate my collection to my children…both my sons are in their mid-40s now, and have already taken possession of at least half of my collection over the past 2 years. I’ve had a blast prepping their shares, fine-tuning items to each son as appropriate and removing coins that I kept by mistake ( getting rid of the evidence!…lol ). I guess the point I want to make is we all get to this point sooner or later. I commend you for addressing your own special situation and wish you good fortune, long life and making a successful journal. …not expecting a response…Spark[/QUOTE]
