How would you feel if this happened to you?

Question

Your grandfather dies and in his will he gives most of his stuff to your sibling who is getting a PhD and a high paid job... and your a construction worker/cattle farmer?

Answer 1

I would feel good because it would be getting it all

Answer 2

i would feel hurt. if you spent the most time with him, i assume that the bond is strongest with you compared to your sibling. at least his property should be distributed equally between the two of you.

if my grandfather thinks more highly of my sibling only because of is statues in society, naturally i will get upset over it.

Answer 3

pretty peed off as I expect you do right now, you could ask the sibling for a fair share, but dont expect anything, they're not obliged to give, i would like to think eiher of my siblngs would be fair, but I know them too well and my parents too to expect anything

Answer 4

hhmm... sad, don't care..... slightly angry, unfair, etc...

Answer 5

I always hated that story about the prodigal son the point to me was that they didn't tell the other son straight away but let him finish his work while they got ready to party.

I have been working hard to unhook myself from fairness and unfairness of other people because i cant afford for my happiness to be dependent upon what other people do or say.

Money and wills hurt so many people but they say more about the giver than the given to and left out.

I feel its all meaningless and I would l be shocked to wonder what went on in that persons head and I'd try really hard to let it go and not let it affect me and make me bitter.

It might also make me think about what I'd do with any money I had to leave.

Answer 6

because he knows your a hard worker and tough and can take care of yourself. believe me knowing him and having that time with him was worth way more.

Answer 7

FUCKEN PISSED OFF >:[

Answer 8

thats like someone taking a baseball bat to your knees! I do not know why but maybe because he didnt get to spend as much time with the sibling, i dont know but it is  hard thing...

Answer 9

very angry & upset with him =[

Answer 10

Depends. Were you spending all your time caring for him in the hope of inheriting his money or were you doing it out of love? If you were doing it for the money he may have sussed you. If you were doing it for love then the money shouldn't matter.

However I do believe the money should be split equally & fairly.

Answer 11

i would feel like id been kicked in the teeth,i would feel very upset,i feel for u..your sibling should give u someething,hopefully..that would be the nice thing to do..paula x

Answer 12

Screwed

Answer 13

To me I would be happy for the memories I have of my Grandfather,there lies your riches,not what is left,If some one asked me I would ask for a photo.....but as far as any thing else,that's just materialistic,also I would know inside ,I spent time loving MY grandfather and not for what possessions they have.
