Things were signed for me since 2008. I went out of town for work and they bugged her while and after she was in the hospital and next week the entire will was changed. 2 months later she died. I knew they were harassing her and using her money. My uncle and I tried to get APS to help bc she was competent so we…

I see him whenever I go to bway shows and he’s unremarkable. He has no showmanship or personality but at least he doesn’t bug me like the cartoon characters.

Exactly!

I’m trying but I think im going to be another member of the “I got fucked” list.

To me, it’s like the VP debate. Pence was lying but he was so calm and collected that he made the other guy look insane for being honest and saying wtf? That’s how I feel. I’m practically screaming and jumping and waving around saying “no, this is not right” but they are calm “this was gma’s decision and you need to…

Yeah, she’s pretty charming and it’s not until 6-12 months later and the victim realizes they were had. Nothing ever happens, either. She lives in the same place with no shame.

I have contacted a lawyer from the “best” firm in NW Indiana (Chicago suburb). He didn’t sound too encouraging but he’s doing research and supposed to get back to me after the 1st. I’m worried bc the house is transfer on death deed and the remaining items qualify for a small estate claim which means it’s not regular…

Most of the major stuff is from lowes and I bought in 2010/11. Just my fucking luck they only keep 5 years of records, I called asap but sol. I do have some records from them 12-14 but it’s just for washing machine, water heater, storm door, microwave. I was 1-3 months too late for snowblower,fence and roof.

It’s not that he’s repping them, it’s that she’s the executor so he’s helping the estate.

I already knew but I’m shocked by the level. I guess I thought there was a barrier and I feel so stupid for not being on guard but at the same time, my brain doesn’t even go there so...

Are you in NYC? That’s different, right? Like you show proof. This is in the Midwest. The only thing I can do is try to challenge the will with hopes of pushing them into mediation and either getting $ or a chance to buy them out for under market but I’m waiting for the lawyer to call back after he researched stuff.…

It’s just so crazy how we are fed this idea of karma and I’ve seen the reality. Sometimes bad people never get theirs. Karma is Santa Claus for grown ups.

Thanks. Idk about karma, she’s been conning people since I’ve known her and not one consequence. In the past couple years alone, she’s lied about breast cancer, brain tumor, opened up cc in some guy’s name, told 3 different men that my other brother had cancer to get money from them. That’s why it’s even harder to…

It’s not that the estate lawyer is trying to be a dick, he actually used to live across the street from us. It’s that now he represents them and I know he feels bad for me and I don’t think he had any idea what was going on. He was just doing my gma a favor and now he’s involved with psychos. I personally feel like he…

Thanks. I know it happens quite a bit and it’s not even about money or the house, it’s the way that they do it so perfectly and it looks like my gma did it to me and that she didn’t love me and was using me. I know that’s not true but to the law, that’s what it looks like and short of proving that a gun was put to her…

I blame myself for not seeing it coming. It was a perfectly executed blindside and I almost have to admire the cleverness involved.

I kind of understand. My gma (who was basically my mom) died 3 weeks ago. If that wasn’t enough, I also found out that my mom and brother pulled some con regarding the will that leaves me homeless despite that I’ve been paying for everything for 10 years and it’s unlikely that I have legal recourse. I’m fully…

I hate when people break up and all of a sudden the woman wants to act like the dad never existed. My mom did it to my 4 1/2 brothers and it effected them so much.

This article is about pensions where the individual has little to no information or influence on the investment.

If you take the median of 300k and start off with 10k investment and add 10k for the next 29 years at 6%, you have over 800k in 30 years, a few million (with no more contributions) after 50 years. If you were able to invest the entire 300k at once, you’d have almost 6 million after 50 years. Either way, you have…
