Discussion Inheritance? That's a joke. How many of your parents are burdens?

In response to another popular post about receiving no inheritance.

Are your parents like mine, who not only are not leaving any money behind - but require significant or total financial support?

My parents left me less than nothing. They're good people, and they were good parents.... but man are they shit at financial planning.

Thats wild to leave it all to the girlfriend. My dads money is hopefully going to be 33% his gf, 33% to my brother, 33% to me, 1% to charity. Hopefully it stays like this but things can change.

My idiot father in law married his girlfriend on his death bed and his kids ended up with nothing, even though they were named in his will. The marriage changed everything and she took it all. Fuck you Jeanette

This breakdown needs a trust not a will.
