The following is my
answer to a Quora question: “How old should your children be
before you name them executors of your estate?”
They may become executors of your estate once they
have reached the age of legal majority, which varies from place to place, from
as low as 16 years to as old as 23 years of age. Biological age aside, you must also consider
that they should be of sound mind, and be credible and reliable. You should not have, as an executor of your
estate, someone who has a conviction for fraud or any form of dishonesty, for
example. It would be prudent, also, that
your executor not be a bankrupt. Your
executor should preferably, also not be in frail health since there is no point
of an executor that dies before you.
