I had a silly thought recently that if I were to die, my family might have trouble accessing the internet at home. I've personally configured my home network with a good deal of customization, and no one in my family would know or would be willing to figure out how to troubleshoot if there were issues with home network connectivity. They would most likely end up just using a modem/router configuration provided by and maintained by the ISP.
I would like to hear what others perceive themselves to be a single point of failure for in their family/households. Either something stops working if you were not available, or knowledge/expertise is lost if you were to die. It doesn't have to be tech related. I'm actually more keen to hear about non-tech related matters.

Being able to work from home has its benefits — being available all the time. When I die that all goes away.

Keeping the peace would be one big hole in the family armour if I was to go. But they would fill the void eventually as they readjusted. I think most of our house stuff except our money and bills etc. I sort all that out

I think I fit the classic cliché of the man who does small repairs around the house, but I primarily believe that my presence is really important when it comes to cases where someone needs to stay calm and take the lead in a complicated situation. I've been through situations like illness and death of family members where I had to take the lead.

It's just me and my wife, and thankfully I think she could figure out most things without me.
