Basically it looks like when his dad passed away recently he hasn't left a will. He thought the world of his dad and his dad him. He spent a lot of time with him while he was ill
His dad gave him the impression that he would leave him a decent inheritance. I'm talking no more than £10,000 with £5 ,000 being minimum
His dad had earned a lot of money in his working life a lot of it tax free in another country. He was really high up the tree in his profession.
There doesn't appear to be a will. Just a signed letter with everything going to his widow. So there's no idea how much he has left.
He was given £1000.
I'm devastated for him as he is and he is not a money person far from it. Just a hard working family man who works all the hours God sends to make ends meet. His car is 10 years old. He feels awful about this but he feels his dad would be upset if he was here. Why his dad never made proper provision I don't know. His dad was very generous while alive. I can't believe he hasn't safeguarded some money for his son.
The one he thought the world of.
Please don't think my son has an air of entitlement. He doesn't. He would go round in rags as long as his wife and children were provided for.
Meanwhile his dad's widow swans around in a big car and a big house.
