[quote=Anonymous]OP I think you were planning on getting that money... You sound a lot like my mother. My grandfather doesn't have a lot, but by that state's standards its quite a bit (around 1.5mil). He mentioned updating his will giving just about everything to my uncle, who is living with and caring for my grandfather fulltime (my grandfather is still very mobile, alert, etc, could be living on his own still but very nice to have my uncle around). My mother definitely feels entitled to some of it, which I don't get, and she started a little thing about it. I know my parents are not as prepared for retirement as they should be, and were probably relying on this cash.

DH and myself will make sure we are prepared for college, and that we leave money to DD and her future children (if she has any). FIL owns a large building that at this moment DH should inherit, and if that happens wonderful, but we're not planning on it.

OP it's not your money, it was never your money. You should prepare for your future yourself and not rely on anyone else.[/quote]
