[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me try to make a very long story short. My uncle, my dad’s brother, passed away about 10 years ago very unexpectedly. He left a [b]good amount of money to my dad[/b] vs. leaving everything to his wife and kids (my aunt/cousins). It’s [b]not entirely clear [/b]why he did this since my dad is about just as well off as he was, but he did....

I can’t fully explain what she said/did, but let’s just say it involved saying some nasty things about my step mom and accusing my dad of a crime and trying to get him arrested (which didn’t happen since her story was fabricated).[/quote]

A later post from OP makes it perfectly clear why the uncle left $ to her dad. Dad loaned him money to start a business and that money was never repaid.  And assume no ownership share for dad for what became a going concern business.  Dad could have lost all the money he loaned if the uncle's new business failed.

Dad got 20% and the other 80% went elsewhere-wife and kids I assume.  When uncle and dad were both alive they were not about the same since dad was out x$ that uncle never repaid.[/quote]
