[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you just spend more money on your kids now, knowing you will inherit from her in the next 1-16 years?  Once I got a peek into the size of my parents' estate and trust documents, I stopped saving so aggressively.  They're not big on gifting now, but I know I will inherit enough from them that I don't need to stress about end-of-life care for myself or leaving a legacy for my kids (they'll eventually get what I get).

OP: We are trying to do this, but it's been drummed into our heads for so long that you can never count on an inheritance that we basically aren't. Even though I can't imagine what my mom could possibly spend $6+ million on.[/quote]

My dad promised inheritance.  He gave it all away to his "friends." Don't count on it.  Move on. What my mom has, my sibling will take it all as the executor regardless of the will.    Move on, save and help your own kids.  She could spend it all on a nursing home/care.[/quote]
