If you don’t care what happens to your genealogy stuff after you die, please ignore this post.
If you do, consider devoting a certain percentage of your “genealogy time” to planning for after you leave this Earthly existence. It can be digitizing and identifying photographs, organizing materials, culling (yes…culling) your collection, photographing items that can’t easily be preserved, writing your own stories, writing up ancestral problems, etc. The list is personal to you.
Not to be morbid, but we never know when our time is up. So think about devoting some of your genealogy time to not getting more information and details, but to doing what you can to preserve things past your existence on this planet.
Unless that doesn’t interest you and it’s fine if it doesn’t. But if it does, think about it. If it doesn’t then don’t.
