If you have no dependants why are you wasting time worrying about children fighting over whatever fortune you have?

The logical process is to build up your retirement fund. If still got energy and still enjoy your work, continue to work, build up some buffer in the fund. Retirement can be 10 to 35 years long depending whether you are living a healthy life or one consumed by jealousy or what not.

Then if got excess money, can always have a more luxurious retirement lifestyle if you dont want to leave too much for your children. You have the option! Without money, even if you want leave something for your dependants, you cant.

We know of people who retired at 65 and died immediately after. His wife and children happily squandered his fortune. There are people who even gamble away inheritance at casinos because they don't value the fortune as they didn't work for them.
