it doesn't make much sense for average people to set up trusts, but sure i guess
It's a fairly common process. I would say it's worthwhile if you own a home, regardless of whether owned outright or encumbered, and other tangible assets that would need to be distributed/liquidated. Really depends on the client's specific circumstances, and financial status is just one factor of many. Having a third party act as trustee can be a hassle at times depending on the asset, though.

Most other major intangible assets that middle class folks and below would have and would want to pass on to specific people (bank accounts, retirement accounts, life insurance policies) generally have TOD provisions that go around probate.

But he hasn't.

If he's wrong, lying, otherwise damaging the country, why not?

It's like they know it's not a hoax but they need the hoax narrative or something.

Just finished my first run today. Had a lot of fun, although I don't quite understand how to deal with the Flood pure forms other than stick with the pointy end of an energy sword or hold down M1/M2 with akimbo Spikers or Maulers. Cortana was a bitch, as I heard it was. Somehow still beat the par score despite dying a bunch.

A nitpick I have is that you're suddenly not super squishy during the end sequence on Legendary. I get that it's a victory lap spectacle, but you had to sweat blood and bullets during the Warthog run in CE. I was expecting something similar, but with the enemy density during the level it'd be damn impossible to do it while squishy. >_>

Pretty much. The irony is pretty staggering.

That said, only avenue available to her would likely be constructive discharge, which requires some change to have occurred that made continued employment nigh intolerable to a reasonable person. Don't know enough to comment on plausibility of the claim, but her other claims of discrimination fail on their face after a brief foray into NY law (presumably as the forum state) on the matter, and federal law offers no succor either.

You do not ever need to reload again after getting the Striker exclusive.

You have an effective magnum in the BAR with its exclusive without the ammo issues in versions after the PS2 version.

The SAR's exclusive is only slightly less broken than the PS2 BAR.

The boosts to the Red9 and Blacktail exclusives in the PS2 version and beyond were not compensated by increases to enemy hp ranges, and typically take off one or two shots required compared to the Gamecube version. Which means more kills per reload, substantially reducing vulnerability time when most enemies are slow as hell.

Firecrackers are a notorious mechanism for stunlocking bosses/mini-bosses. The burn status is also fairly prevalent in allowing easy openings to pile damage on.

Beyond that, there are also times when boss AI decides to loop on itself for... whatever reason. Lady Butterfly comes to mind on this front, since she's prone to locking herself into a block->block->deflect->counter->repeat loop if you do the R1 mashing.

All of you not getting married but living together with your partner remember to check to see if your state has common law marriage. If it does find out what it consists of so your not blind sided should you have to give her half your stuff due to common law legality.

If your state does not have common law marriage then do whatever but if there is common law marriage DO NOT LIVE TOGETHER.
Cohabitation is not dispositive on the issue. CLM requires the couple to hold themselves out as married.

When you start commingling assets and future planning akin to a married couple is when the weight begins to shift the other direction.
