[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never married, no kids, work as a nanny but inherited $3 million from my mum (and yes I still work as a nanny). My brother is a giant a-hole and has pretty much said how he expects me to leave his kids/himself my money. Kids who I see once every 2 years because I only see them when I go there, they've never come to see me. In my will, I’m leaving his kids the heirlooms (grandmothers large collection of diamonds, probably 100-150k) but they’re getting zero cash or anything else. I’m leaving everything to a children’s charity, but if I could find a charity benefitting sibling s of sociopaths or a-holes, I’d leave it all to them. [/quote]

I'm in a similar position. Inherited a significant amount of money from my mother. I don't have kids and my DH doesn't need any money, he's got plenty. My sister and I inherited equal amounts. She thinks I should leave everything that I got to her two kids because it came from our mom and I don't have kids. I will not be doing that -- it's going to my DH and some of it to charities/orgs that have been good to me (unlike my sister), or, if DH predeceases me, just charities/orgs. FWIW, sister, niece, and nephew will be just fine financially. In fact my sister has significantly more than I do. [/quote]

Even if she didn't make more, your mom left you your half of the money.  It is yours to decide what to do.  If she wanted sister and her kids to have more she would have left it to them.  
Some people are so entitled it is ridiculous
