We know those stories about rich and powerful people who lose their judgment at life's end. A 90-year-old marries a 30-year-old. He hopes to re-live the passion of his youth. He thinks it's a marriage based on true love. Next thing you know, he leaves millions to the young partner and leaves nothing to his children from previous marriages.
If the 90-year-old was in a senior living center, it wouldn't be news. No one would care. The family would say, "Kafa gitti. Ne yapıcaksın." But if the old person owned mansions and had millions of dollars, a legal battle would unfold. Could it be worse to have no will?

Such a legal battle would focus on the mental state of the 90-year-old. Attorneys for the young lover would argue that the relationship was based on love and respect... that the old person fully knew what he was doing when he wrote his will leaving nothing to his earlier children.
It looks like Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was of sound mind and put good thought into his will - ATATÜRK'ÜN VASİYETNAMESİ - https://www.communityabroad.com/turkish/post/1000000050310

On the other hand, the family left out in the cold would argue that the marriage was a sham. They would argue that the 90-year-old was not of sound mind. Vasiyetname Hangi Sartlarda Gecerlidir? https://youtu.be/IFWKfX_GLuk?si=JMG2oENNdFW6sHmi
In the end, it would be a costly and bitter battle. The court would look at when the will was written, and the 90-year-old's mental state at the time.
Since most of us, including myself, do not have millions, we can take comfort in the fact that in all the hardships of life, this could be one scenario we'll be spared!
Good Luck - yolunuz açık olsun
