"Elliott realizes the unique situation the hand-scratched will presents. In Saskatchewan, hand-written “Holograph Wills” are legally binding – but never before has one been written on anything other than paper. He hires a local photographer to take a picture of the fender. He searches for other legal precedents and can only find one: a 1926 case from England when a will was written on the egg of a hen."

"One would think that it is a fairly simple process to gift a loved one funds, but its not always as straight forward as it seems. In Canada, giving money to adult family, other than your spouse, is largely a tax-free event for all parties, although, if the gift-granting person is liquidating non-registered investments, they may trigger capital gains when selling those investments."

"Every year, Holly posts a very practical school-of-life set of reminders on finances, estates and life that she’s adapted from her own experience, and a list created by other widows. When she posted it a few weeks ago on LinkedIn, I realized what a tremendous and thoughtful resource her words were. We can all benefit from her wisdom, and I am extremely thankful to my dear friend for letting me share it with you."

"I’ve always found it intriguing that Al Capone’s legacy is our modern anti-money laundering rules, as well as the birth of forensic accounting. His unsavory story is also ironic in that it was not the police who took him down – but instead, his tax return, and a determined accountant. Sometimes, the pen is indeed mightier than the sword!"

by Ivar Libæk* The International Committee of the Red Cross was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1917, 1944 and 1963 – on the third occasion jointly with the League of Red Cross Societies.

In the words of the Nobel Committee:

“There is no man who more deserves this honour, for it was you, forty years ago, who set on foot the international organization for the relief of the wounded on the battlefield.
