Some of my uncles/aunts (on my Dad's side) are nearly at the end of their game, and they're vehhhhhhhry rich. Thing is, they have no children. My half sister must realise this too, because after spending the first 30 years of her life living in England, not seeing my Dad for most of that time either, she turned up out of the blue last year to make a desperate attempt to become great freinds with my Dad and aunts and uncles. And the best part is, she ignored my and my (full) brother completely; avoiding any opportunity to meet us.
Fucking cow. |

Posted by Xkeeper Or, "About to kick the bucket"? It also bothers me that people's relatives can be nearing the end of their life span, and they are more worried about how much money they'll get from their death than the fact one of their dear relatives may die, in a few years even, but that's just the way people are. I can't stand people. ____________________ There are things I want to put here. Like a cool picture, my 8-bit theatre character test result, my MS and RO characters...

Even distribution is ideal, but maybe one person needs more? If you're lounging in your recliner watching your high-def TV while your brother is working double shifts just to pay the rent, well... |

Posted by HyperHacker Yeah, I have no problem with having less money if someone else needs more, but other people do, so if I am in a position where I can sacrifice some to help that relative, sure, but to prevent the selfish people from possibly screwing it all up, even distribution first, personal contribution later. I'd wind up with the short end of the stick, but it's not like I'd be depending on that money anyway, and they'd need it more. EDIT: I'll give an example of what I speak of: Lets say there are three brothers getting an inheritance. I am Brother A Brother B is selfish to the point of rediculosity Brother C is in need of the money much more than either of us If brother C gets the majority outright, brother B will get angry about it, demanding equality, and a huge conflict develops, this is bad. However, if the money is distributed evenly to all three, Brother B gets his share, not straining family relations any more than they probably already are, I can give a good amount of the money I got to Brother C, since I don't really need it, and everyone is happy. ____________________ There are things I want to put here.

Posted by TheGreatGuy "rediculosity"? Anyway, I'm glad nobody in my family's that greedy. Then again, maybe that's why none of them are rich. ____________________ "I'd like to confuse bok choy with cabbage." |

Some of my relatives might be rather wealthy, but I rather see them living for much longer than seeing them to kick the bucket, so they can see that their grandchildren is going somewhere in the life.
My family and most of my relatives seems to be pretty much happy with what we have and doesn't really need much more. If I got a huge sum of money, I probably would invest it in various projects instead of spending it on silly stuff too. Because I think that's what my relatives would want me to do with the money.  :/____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

My dad has a decent amount of money but is extremely stingy. The only thing he's willing to spend it on is cars and gas, he lives really far away from work (like, 120 km or so), but housing is cheaper there. (Well of course it is! The place is full of trailer parks!) He only spends money on me very reluctantly. And when I mean spends money, I'm not talking about luxuries or gifts, I'm talking about rent. He works two jobs despite making almost $100k/year in one, and he used to work three until this year. |
