I think you are very lucky. My dad died when I was 15 and we lost our home and everything else.
Yes, she is very lucky. My mother is leaving everything to my wonderful brother who has gone behind her back to tell us other siblings that he is not going to be burdened with her when she is too old or sick to care for herself.
So, being a high school dropout, extortionist, bullying, lying, deceitful son who refused to marry the mother of his out of wedlock kid until he could afford a wedding so he could cash in on wedding gifts does pay off.
Course, I wasn’t told of the decision to give him everything until hubby and I sunk $8k into her home for hurricane repairs and old appliances- brother refused to help- physically or financially- even while knowing all would go to him.
Sorry to vent. I just hate being related to a dirtbag.
Thankyou, I am lucky. I’m sorry about your dad and losing your home.
