[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Putting it bluntly OP your other two kids are pissed that you are rewarding their slacker sibling while they have made it on their own. [/quote]

I guess. I am the more successful of 3 children. I fully expect (because my dad has told me) that their estate plan is to reward my lesser successful siblings. They've worked hard and haven't had major life issues. I just make a lot more than they do.

Even if my father hadn't told me, I would expect them to get a larger share and would be surprised if he had equalized it. If he had equalized it i would assign some over to my siblings. I won't turn down money but they need it more than i do.[/quote]

Same with my family…particularly when any share of my parent’s estate is just fun money for me, but meaningful to siblings.

At some point if you have an UHNW kid there is no longer any concern over “fairness”.[/quote]

So all the money should go to the other kids? Doesn't necessarily need to be equal but the UHNW getting nothing seems potentially volatile over time.[/quote]
