You have reached a conclusion based on no facts:
You say "Greed is disgusting" , condemning the old lady, however, what about this possibility.

The geezer loses his mind, the son is taking his money and blowing it at the track. His long time pal, hires a lawyer to see what can be done. She doesn't need the money, she is trying to help her life long pal. I'd now say that the son is greedy, and "greed is disgusting". She let it remain as a court case, in hopes that she would recoup what she paid the lawyer.

I could come up with 2 or 3 more scenarios that fit the facts in the story, that make good valentines stories. don't condemn her based on this little article.

Greed is disgusting regardless of who possesses it. You say not to assume that she is greedy. I say do not assume I was speaking about her. I was making a generalized statement. Further, if the old man wanted to leave the money to his son, then it does not matter how he may waste it because it is his right to do with his property as he pleases as long as he obtained the property legally.
