This question is as clear as mud. I'm going to flip a coin and hope for the best. Maybe I'll get lucky and the answer will be 'none of the above' so I can just go back to napping.

Wait, we're supposed to lose all our rights except one? That's like getting a participation trophy for being dead. I'm going with A, just to mess with the person who has to settle my estate.

Hmm, this one's tricky. I think I'll go with C, just to stick it to the man and give my stuff to a charity. Who needs heirs anyway?

Ah, the age-old question of what happens when you bite the dust without a will. I'd go with D, just to give the tax man a little extra challenge.

Option B seems like the obvious choice here. I mean, who doesn't want their assets to go to their rightful heirs? That's like, the whole point of not having a will.
