Logbook

It could just be a sign of getting older.. or just observation of various things going on around me and recent events. And the fact a lot of the stats I deal with are around sudden death.

So, in NZ, what is legally required when you die?

Found a basic overview here (took a little while of googling though):

Wondering about wills and stuff. Is it worth going via Public Trust? Cheaper elsewhere? How much does the amount of assets etc affect things? - various amounts in banks and superannuation funds either side of the ditch spring to mind.

I favour cremation with donation of any organs that are useful - if any bits of me that I no longer need can save someone's life or improve their quality of life, then go for it. And I think I would like some of my ashes scattered at the top of Mount John. No other ideas so far. Maybe a tree and a seat somewhere?

Cause I am not planning on dying any time soon. I quite like life, thank you. But starting to set things up just in case would probably be sensible.
