[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s FIL’s money and he brought the issue up with his son, not with you. Stay in your lane. This literally has nothing to do with you. It is FIL’s money and [b]he want his SON’S counsel on what td do now[/b].[/quote]
I agree with everything you wrote except the bolded portion.[b] FIL isn’t asking for his son’s counsel; he’s asking his son to give his blessing to this plan so FIL doesn’t have to feel guilty about it.[/b]

Make sure your dh does not accept responsibility for being executor of the estate if he’s not going to inherit. It’s a PITA and there’s no reason for him to do it.[/quote]

This is correct. He should be clear with his father that it is his money, to do what he wants to do with it, and if he's feeling guilty about his choice, it's not on DH to absolve him. He has to square that with his own conscience. The money is likely already gone, already promised to the SIL, or on the way to being gone. So, I would want to say my piece and tell him that I think he's making an unfair choice and he has to live with it, and also live with the fact that he did not set his daughter up to be a functional adult, and when she blows through the last of the money, she's truly on her own.
