[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 605301, member: 11791"] I think there's two separate parts to the story. On the one hand... we won't be leaving much to the kids, either, but that's because we're spending most of it now, with the intent that they will launch and be self sufficient... and we'll make do on what is left. Having done that, I have no guilt in not scrimping and pinching any more than I have to in old age, just to leave "an inheritance" for my kids. On the other hand... that's not what your mom has done. Seems like it's always been about her. And perhaps that is the harder part to deal with than whether or not there's an inheritance? [/QUOTE]
