[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sibling has more kids than me and I assume my parents will leave more money to them. I guess I don’t see why the math should be generation specific. Dividing by grandchildren seems as legitimate as dividing by children. [/quote] We had a situation where a childless aunt had a will that left her estate equally to her living siblings. The aunt updated it immediately after one of her siblings died, even though that sibling had an extremely close relationship to her, as did that sibling's children among all the nephews and nieces. There was a lot of resentment because the aunt was already in her 80's, and the estate was relatively fairly substantial. The aunt thought this was the fairest approach, but the children of the deceased sibling felt discounted and hurt. Of course the aunt died within a year. [/quote]
