What happens to your blog when you’re indisposed?

Over at Performancing, they asked about what to do with your blog when you die as discussed in one of the WebmasterWorld’s threads. I don’t want to use the word “death” in the title here so I am using “indisposed”. Besides, there are other less extreme cases when you and your blog are torn apart (how about disability?)

Anyway, my blogs are the least of my concerns actually. There are far worse financial/economic tragedies that could result if I happen to be indisposed. I have talked about this about almost a year ago when one of my business partners passed away. He used to do our financials for our business back then and almost everything went awry as we were not properly equipped to handle such situations — bank accounts, SEC registrations, BIR, documents, contacts, online accounts, applications, almost everything. We were a start-up company then so we handled things on an as needed basis.

After that, we came up with a redundancy plan so that no less than 2 people have access to whatever information, documents or finances related to the business.

That also gave me some thoughts about my own situation. I’m living alone here in the city while all of my family are back in the province. What happens when I’m indisposed? Well, I wrote down all my bank accounts, credit card accounts, list of properties, collectibles, insurance, legal documents and whatnot, put them in a box and wrote down instructions then told my younger brother what to do if such cases happen.

Just a thought I’d like to share.

    thats an interesting thought, usually we dont think of these things until we have families or are old. but then again always being prepared will help. just dont get that insurance plan which your significant other will kill you for :)
