About to get my inheritance

I’ve always heard that ignorance of the law isn’t a defense.

Sorry about the family dynamics, but your dad has really stepped up to realize that would cause more issues and get the things he wanted to go to you to you. You have a world class dad.

I gave away some things of mine already to kids so that there both won't be fights over them but also I no longer have to take care of those items or think they might disappear prior to something happening to me, so for me that's a win in this part of my life. My mom in particular had a few things that I would have loved to have that disappeared in the last year or so that she had any real faculties left. And the mess the family had to deal with in her home was unreal, so I don't want that to happen to my kids or have the chance of something going on with me and someone else getting in there and just taking things.

 

Not in court. But it often works when dealing with individuals. Cal

 

Our thoughts are certainly aligned, but different. I'm not suggesting in any way shape or form for either of them to break the law.

 

Really? That is your fiduciary advice?

Ahem....you are fired.

 

What a great Christmas gift to you. I'm sorry for your family issues and hope dad can get every thing straighten out before his time comes.
My mother had her finances in a trust, but as executor, my instructions were to sell the house and split the $ between my siblings. One older sister, one younger brother. My brother had been living with my mom, and mom didn't want him to keep living in the house once she was gone. She knew it would just enable his poor choice of life-style.
I, just signed a trust, giving my cabin and property to the friends that have helped me in a million ways, since I've lived here. My sister is on board with it (she has $) and my daughter wouldn't appreciate the beauty of the place, and would simply sell it and run off with the money. My mom's ashes, and now mine, will be on the property, so having friends taking care of it, made sense.
No matter how things go, it is a time to forgive and I hope you can.

 

That ship sailed awhile back
How many before it's considered a collection in itself?

 

Glad for you.

 

Father-in-law passed last year. He had 3 families. I stayed out of it. Was kinda sad how people act

 

I walked away from it all when my parents passed. The strife was unbelievable. The heartache was too much too bear. None of us have ever talked again. Really sad to say...
Hey, Rick I really hope that in the time you have left to give up what ever you might hold against your sisters and they have the heart to do the same. Set it to the side, reach out a hand no matter how hard it may be. This is not the way your father wants to end his time in this earth. I don't wish it on any family.

 

Me and my dad get along great it's the first born boy and first born girl that our fighting

That's why he had a meeting with me and my youngest sister.

We're the only two sane ones .

 

Rick, sorry for your family issues. Hoping things work out for you. .
