[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know what my parents inherited. Certainly nothing life changing. I got about $12k when my mom’s mom died and I’m one of 6 grandkids who I assume all got the same. I have to think she left more to her 3 kids, but I was never told. The only things I’ve ever heard about from my dad’s side were sentimental items.

If my mom died tomorrow, my share (one of 3 kids) would be about $1 million. But who knows what assets she will need to use later in life so I don’t plan around getting anything. She’s giving us all money now, her three kids and some to each of her 7 grandkids).

I hope to leave money to my kids, but it’s hard to know where life is going to take me over the next 30-50 years. Just trying to save as much as possible without depriving them of things now.

My ex-who knows. His dad inherited basically nothing (less than $10k). His mom I’m not sure about because it was after we divorced, but I’d guess under $100k. His parents won’t have too much, and his mom has a lot of health issues so could well burn through quite a bit. At the moment they are barely speaking anyway-so if things continue in that vein I could see them bypassing him and leaving it to my kids (her only grandkids). Even if it does go to him, I have no expectation that he’d leave much for the kids. [/quote]
