[QUOTE="Rick61, post: 1342938, member: 53845"] It may be too late to reply but I took the 50% option. In hindsight I wish I would have left 100% for the wife. I think it really depends on how well your wife can support herself during and after retirement. My wife is disabled so I wanted to make sure she was okay and still be able to retire myself and pay the bills. I do also have life insurance for the same reason. It's really selfish to not leave something for her in my opinion since she put up with a lot of crap too. She never knew when you would be home(or maybe you wouldn't) and in most cases she practically raised the kids by herself so take care of the wife. (Assuming every thing is okay between the two of you) Anything less than the 50% option and she has to sign off in front of a notary that she is forgoing her share of her own will. [/QUOTE]
