[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not so sure that people who inherit or are gifted these large sums of money are lucky.  One of the best feelings of my life was when my husband and I bought our home on our own with money we worked hard for.  There's nothing like earning your own success.[/quote]
What do you suggest beneficiaries do? Turn the money down? I inherited a large sum and I'm extremely grateful. My husband and I both work, also. So who are you to judge?[/quote]

DH and I have been extremely fortunate and that is exactly what we plan to do, should we receive any inheritances.  We simply don't need it.  When I was in school I came to the same conclusion.  I could do it on my own and rejected my parents help in the final year (which they could at the time afford).  I worked some, paid out of savings for some and took loans (and it really does give me pride to know that I did it part of it myself).  Had I realized it sooner I would have done so sooner.  It was also the last time that my parents were able to exert any control over my life, and frankly when I started to really succeed.  [/quote]
