you gamble all you like....it is not my wife. Opening an account in joint names and hoping the second person will still have access after the death of the first is gambling. Sitting with bank staff and discussing specific needs and circumstances then acting on their documented recommendations, is not quite the same thing! ,,,,,,and it she, is not my wife either, she is my partner, not that impacts on the solution et al.

Ones needs to clarify "joint account" if the account is in 2 parties where both have legal signatory on the account ie only signature from either of parties is required to access the account then it legally cannot be locked on the passing of one of the parties...

Gold bought. No real surprises, apart from the fact that they don't accept cashier cheques (I'd read they did). And no proof of identity required. (Great for money laundering, methinks.)

When selling it depends on the shop. I was asked for my passport at some, and not at others. The gold shops in shopping centers require id, the ones in downtown markets less so.
As for worrying about this changing in the future in that you must show id when selling, I wouldnt worry much, someone will take it off your hands at slightly below market price knowing they can get the market price or close to it somewhere else.

From my experience buying gold is simple. Buying fried noodles still confuses me.
