Would you contest an inheritance if you thought it was unfair? This is the Money podcast


Where there’s a will, there’s often grumbling… and possibly a major dispute.

The amount of money involved in legacies coming from even humble homes these days can be life changing these days and when someone feels they have been unfairly cut or have not been given their dues, arguments can ensue.

There is a sharp increase in inheritance disputes, but why are they happening, what can you do to protect your estate and would you object if you thought you were treated unfairly?

Georgie Frost, Tanya Jefferies, and Simon Lambert discuss inheritances in this week’s podcast — and Simon tells us what he found he needed to think about when drafting his will.

Plus, will switching energy pay off and how much cheaper can bills get?

And for that matter, how much has an energy-saving action actually saved Simon, which includes turning down the thermostat, turning down the heating, and turning off the lights (but not being too militant about it all)?

Tanya explains to us why the state pension supplement system is such a mess – and we look at the question: do you have what it takes for financial independence and early retirement?
