I'm still young, and spent a lot of my time playing video games and hanging with friends all while believing I still had plenty of time with my father and grow. He was a family man who was happy to be there for us.
My dad unexpectedly died and now while I'm the youngest, I'm going to be in charge of everything. planning the funeral, Talking to creditors, insurance companies, cell phone, his HR, the VA, we live in military housing but we won't be able to stay so ill soon enough have to look for a house to buy.
I have never budgeted before, never had any large sum in my account, never have to pay rent and so forth.
My mom and brother both have a disability that makes it hard for them to handle anything beyond house chores. That's okay, I'm happy to step up for them on this.
My father was a private man about money, he was carefree about expenses, never liked to discuss any sort of plan of "what comes after".
I'm scared, lost and overwhelmed. In a fog of grief. I miss him and want to do all of this right for our family.
Does anyone have any tips to help them stay organized?
What are some questions that are good to ask talking to certain companies/situations?
Common things to be careful of?
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
