C++ Wage Slave
@CppGuy@infosec.space
I'm an oldish software developer, a cis het man, married to Mrs Wife since for ever. I'm autistic but high-masking. @nddev is where I mostly write about that. I nearly always accept follow requests. If I follow you, you don't have to follow back unless you want to. I've chosen a server that blocks Threads because I don't trust Meta's intentions. No alt text, no boost. Avatar is a photo of a Jersey bay, with a boat setting out to sea. I'm horrified by the rise of the hard Right around the world.

In particular, in the UK, when you die, no #InheritanceTax is payable on anything you leave to your spouse or civil partner:

If you never formalised the relationship, no matter how long it lasted, the surviving partner may have to sell the house to pay the #IHT.
This is not financial advice, obviously. Go and get some from someone qualified to give it.
