Wasn’t this a long time ago?

Anyone old enough to have experience a parental death, with or without money, knows human nature is at its worst during inheritance battles. Rich parents can choose to leave one kid nothing. Been there personally. Poor parents can leave children scrapping over a broken down sofa. I’ve seen similar fights.

Advice: Don’t waste your life fighting over money.

Been there personally.

Yep me too and at the short end of the stick. But I'd rather be with the short end than single and alienated from family over stupid estate monies that I never worked for............

" Donald, for his part, said last week that all this feuding and hurt feelings could have been avoided if his nephew Fred had come to talk to him. "It's sort of disappointing. They sued my father, essentially," said Donald. "I'm not thrilled when someone sues my father. "Fred shouldn't be hurt," he added. "I have helped Fred over the years. That was the will of my father. He had four children left, and that's who he wanted to leave his estate to.

I’ve mourned the loss of both my parents, who left a not insubstantial estate. My siblings and I didn’t fight over anything. We came together, we buried old wounds, and we comforted each other.
