Disagreements about who deserves what when estate planning make this letter writer bitter.
My mother-in-law has always favored Kristen but is a wonderful presence for all of her grandchildren. My mother-in-law now wants to transfer the family vacation cottage to my husband, while leaving the rest of her estate to his brother. This transfer will cost us hundreds of thousands of dollars in fees and taxes.We have agreed to take this on to keep the cottage in the family. We have been managing and investing in its improvements for the last few years. Our children enjoy it.
This situation could potentially end the relationship between her and our family, and yet I can’t seem to fathom using my hard-earned money to fund Kristen’s education based on her parents’ own negligence and selfishness. If you truly want this cottage, then go ahead with the transfer. But be aware that there are many other cottages out there, offering you and your husband the opportunity to build fresh and unfettered experiences with your children.
