The Wall Street Journal Totally Blows it on Online Wills

South Florida Estate Planning Law:  “I have long admired the Wall Street Journal and considered them a paragon of straightforward and relatively high level journalism.  . . . Not anymore.  Today, the Wall Street Journal has led their readers horribly astray in such a manner that may cause untold pain and suffering (along with substantial costs) to God knows how many people.  I’m talking about their ‘review’ of do-it-yourself estate planning.  Apparently, there is a recurring column in the WSJ entitled ‘Cranky Consumer.’  It should be titled ‘Idiot Consumer.’”
