With this virus! Being ill or having a long term illness is a thing of the past mate. Cancer was lethal, or so we all thought, in the 1990s. But this covid can wipe you out within 48hrs or less for some people. In another 30 years there will be something else that will kill people in hours... Yet everyone was scared of a nuclear war with Iran or North Korea. Again, nuclear war is a thing of the past. I always said this. Pointless making millions if you're working all hours to rack up your bank balance and then drop... Next of kin will be laughing to the bank without a day's work!

Yes as you say next of kin be sorted sad thing is some time the legal next of kin is actually different from who the person wanted to be next of kin but died suddenly never got a chance to change it Seen it happen before with people separated but not divorced etc . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Next of kin will be laughing to the bank without a day's work! What a bleak outlook, no point trying someone else might get something if you dropped dead. Thoroughly decent landlord Grant. Our landlord owns all the site outright, on every comittee locally type person and used to be the Mayor, round table all that kind of shit ( probably on a register or 2 somewhere aswell). Nothing from him. Expected as much. We don't have any right to, he still has costs but its nice to hear others are getting looked after at a difficult time.

I don't think it's bleak looking out for ones own health. It's actually bleak to not look out for your health and chasing pennies and pounds without actually enjoying any of the money. Recently, guidance from the hospitals says ventilators and focus should be more focused on those that have a higher chance of survival compared to those that dont. So good luck to those working hard to enjoy life at 'retirement'. Once you get to that age and you're no longer the focus because a 20 year old has more chance of survival. So you lost out both ways.
