Last one to post in this thread wins!
My parents paid a **** ton into one of my sisters college run. They kicked down a little to offset that. Pretty sure I drank and smoked all of that.
This was in more tangible assets then a college loan (which the government would have paid for mine if I would have finished it)
my parents live in an old farm house
huge brick building
back in those days, one part of the building was living quarters, the rest was life stock
the living qaurter is basicaly a 4 bedroom 2 bath house
i dont even know how large the lifestock area was (which my dad used as garage/pole barn)
when one of my sisters relationships ended she move back home
My parent parcelled off a section of the lot, including the front part of the life stock area and my sister build her own 4 bedroom home in it
The put a dividing wall in the middle so my dad only has what amounts to a 6 stall garage and my sister has about enough room for 2
My parents gifted her the land, and the building and even though i couldnt care less (shes my sister, i dont envy her one bit) my parents are the kind of people who want everything to be "fair" so they added the clause to thier will ststing im supose to get the equivalent first
My parents left me nothing and I don't care I learned a lot from my dad and knowledge is worth more than gold.
True words, and I'll tell you right now, even if they were to leave me a billion dollars, I'd rather have them
And I'm in no way looking forward to this inheritance, it simply came up in conversation so I put in my 2 cents
