I also am in line to get everything from my spouseless and childless sister, though it is quite likely she won't die before me.

Just curious and not trying to be snarky, why would you think this? I have a spouseless and childless sister and I'm assuming anything she has left would go to charities or the state. Unless she has discussed it with you?

My uncle claimed money he inherited from my grandfather will go to my siblings and I (since we're blood and his step daughter is not). Definitely not holding my breath for that either lol. He's an ass.

DH will most likely get some inheritance. Depending on the next 10ish years anything from a few hundred thousand to a few million.

A bill to $500k to split is way different. Did you mean $500?

You're disgusting.

Then you should meet MIL.

May your children, DILs, SILs view you in the same way some day. Your poor MIL.

Oh...OPs MIL is probably a Pain in the a$$. Stop trying to guilt trip them.

Eh, No guilt here. And I don't have kids, so don't have to worry about DILs or children, if anything most will go to my nieces if they are decent people, or better yet, charities for the less fortunate. Yes, I'm sure my current SIL is thinking she'll get something from me and my DH, the same as she's planning to get from her mother (the awful MIL).

Obviously you have never lived with a mentally unstable mother or MIL. OR you ARE the mentally unstable MIL

NP here. My husband’s single childless brother has already said he is leaving everything to his four nieces and nephews (two ours, and two are their sister’s kids.)

My parents did not receive an inheritance. I’m unsure about DH’s, but it wouldn’t have been anything significant. We won’t receive anything from my parents, but DH will likely get something modest from his dad, and millions from his mom.

I will get around 200K from my parents that I will give to my brother because he needs the money.

My ILs will not give anything to us and everything will go to my DH's brother. They have quite a bit of money. He is an alcoholic and drug addict. He spends his days covered in shit and in a stupor. They are angry with my DH because he is functional and mentally sane.

Consider it pay back for the money they spent on you.

kind of a hilarious response in a thread about inheriting!

Anyway, I already paid all of that back. I was a foster, so they were paid for several years to raise me. Public school, no paid activities like piano lessons or league sports. I've been working since I was 16, and they gave me $1000 for college. I paid off their debts when I was 25, and gave them another $150,000 on top of that but they blew through that and are deeply in debt again. I pay the mortgage and the grocery bills. Most of y'all should be so lucky.

My dad's plan is to give DD a very small family heirloom (possibly worth $50-100), a small gold coin to each of his three kids, and all his guns to my brother. Not much in the way of savings.

My mom has a whole bunch of antique furniture and knick-nacks, and not much else.

No, I don't expect this

Yes, but one set of my grandparents died young before they could use their assets for their own retirement/end of life needs, so everything got passed down to their kids earlier than planned.
