Right right right I was just giving a "real life" example. I'm also lucky that my dad/his fiancee are very pragmatic people and could see that there might be conflict in the future, since I don't get along very will with her daughter (thankfully we're grownups who only have to see each other a handful of times in our lives and live very far away from one another) so wanted to lay out the terms of their pre-nup/wills with us prior to their wedding since she is the executor of her mother's will, and I am the executor of my father's will.
I'd hate for my father's/mother's assets to be sold to fund a tea party rally.
