[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the PP that said if it is easy to do, go for it. It is not worth wasting energy and getting angry with a foreign legal system if it proves difficult. I'd put the money in a retirement account and leave it there (if it is not co-mongled with other funds, it will be not have to be divided if you ever divorce). If something unexpected happens in your life (divorce, sick spouse, loss of income, etc.) you can dip into those funds. If none of those things happen, the money could be used to support your mother in her old age (as she never got any funds from him to begin with) or you could donate it to a foundation that supports single moms in your mother's honor. I let a lot of money go in an estate because other family members needed the money more than we did. Five years later I was divorced and jobless. I regret letting it all go now, but I don't get all worked up over it.[/quote]
