She's just inherited £37,115.15 from my brother (due on her £18th) and refuses to talk to me about his wishes because that will mean talking to me. What she also doesn't know is that the only reason she's getting a fucking penny is because I repeatedly had to beg him not to cut her out of his will because she never bothered to reply to his messages or thank him for gifts.

it's enough to make you want to ban inheritance altogether. I'm starting to believe that IHT is way too low.
I'm encouraging my folks to spend as much as possible while they're alive. Although, my mum's jewelry and gold collection and my dad's cars, motorbikes and assorted machinery are worth quite the pretty penny.

Hopefully she studies for her degree in a place other than her mum's house and gains some perspective
