Blurggg.

Had a chat w/ bro last night. Dude is flat out gunning for ol’ girls’ coin.

Bit of history, back in the day daughters were often left out of wills and the boys got everything. O’l girl was left out and her brothers got everything. Her mum though (my grandmother) left her (and ony her) everything of hers including the proceeds from the sale of her house because the same shit probably happened to her (back in the day before property shit so hardly enough these days for a deposit lol). But it’s hers.

Anyway ol’ boy transferred that coin (with her permission) into something joint that actually gets interest which is fine. Now bro is demanding a slice of it. Now the ol’ boy would have to agree (which he won’t).

I can’t believe this cunt.

Been thinking about this all morning. At a loss on what to do. Something tells me to stay out. But at the same time ol’ girl might feel like she has no agency… it’s her coin after all.

Just feels like sharks circling the pool.

I’m sorry you’re going through this. I went through something very similar.

Best you can do is speak to the old man and give him a heads up so he’s not caught off guard maybe.

    I understand man. It can be pretty intense.
    
    Whatever you decide, I hope it works for the best and you and your family can have some peace ❤️

This might be opinionated but… I don’t know if he deserves it. At all.

I don’t hear about him coming over cooking, making meal plans, liasing with doctors and dietitians, nudging her to eat… or even really being there.

  Yep… I feel so defeated being honest.

    being honest doesn’t mean you have to be a push over and let dishonesty win
    
    You know what bro is like and what he is doing or attempting to do
    
    so preempt him , build up your own team too

That’s horrible and insanely entitled. Your poor mum, having to put up with dealing with that with everything else she’s going through. Maybe she could use ‘might need it for aged care’ as a line to put him off (even if she doesn’t need it for that). And aged care deposits do cost a bomb.
