My parents had a will which split everything equally, of which I was the executrix. After my dad died, my brother convinced my mother (who was drinking heavily by then) to make a Living Trust with him as the Trustee. He ended up with 90% of their estate. I didn’t speak to him for 25 years.

He died of CoVID in January 2022. I’m sad that “my brother” died, but I’m not sad that that particular POS died, if that makes sense.

Still creepy AF, especially when his daughters were the same age.

I think a lot of you posters are unaware of whom Andrew is.

https://www.upi.com/Archives/1982/06/18/Prince-Andrew-used-his-helicopter-to-decoy-deadly-Exocet/7872393220800/

In the Falklands War he flew a Sea King helo and hovered above and very near his ship as a decoy to hopefully lure Exocets away from hitting the ship. It was fully witnessed by far too many men to just be another sea story.

He was in the air when the Atlantic Conveyor was sunk by an Exocet, and rescued guys in the water. Yeah, he was a partier, and enjoyed the women, but his military service was no joke. Charles did nothing.

"The UK apparently intends to keep hanging onto these bumps in the ocean."

Just bring a dose of realpolitik to the discussion, those tiny bumps in the ocean, have a 200 mile economic exclusive zone around them. The formula for the area of a circle is πr2 which translates to for mineral, oil, and gas righty to 125,000 square miles of resources. Only a foolish country would give that up.

You probably lose it anyway shooting craps into a cardboard box in some inner-city back alleyway or buying a truck load of cigarettes or a new gold and diamond front teeth-is grill

Not holding a brief for him just clarifying. If his country allows consensual sex at 17 having sex w/a 17 year old in USA is illegal, gross but more a question of breaking a local law then pedophilia. 80 year olds with 21 year olds is at least as gross.
I am not unhappy with his treatment by the royals either. OTOH Harry & Meghan deserve to be completely out of the Royal picture based on their behavior and choices.

Hello
It does not matter how rich or poor you are there is always someone who wants more more more.....

One of Minnesota’s richest families feuds over $1 billion estate
https://www.startribune.com/one-of-minnesotas-richest-families-feud-over-1-billion-estate/600255767/

Though neither Warren nor her husband worked for the pharmaceutical company, they were angry because Warren’s parents had recently given her brother an extra 1.5% of their stock in the Maple Grove firm, upsetting the siblings’ matched 25% shares. Warren wanted equal standing, she testified.

Warren and her family have received a total of $328 million over the years, including $283 million for her ownership interest in Upsher-Smith.

The sales of Upsher-Smith and related properties brought in more than $1.3 billion

Her parents also covered educational costs for Warren’s three children, and helped her and her husband buy homes on Lake Minnetonka and in Austin, Texas.

“My kids are screwed as well. I told them my financial plan is to have my last check bounce.”

I once saw a really nice and huge RV on the interstate. Painted across the back “Happily Spending Our Kid’s Inheritance.”
They got a honk and wave from everyone.

Love it...on our drive to Las Vegas over Thanksgiving, an SUV drove by us, with a couple of bumper stickers that didn’t mince words: F—k Joe Biden!

Well, Prince Edward does have an island and a province in Canada named for him. Unless it was named for an earlier Prince Edward.
