Lo! The ultimate cheeky fucker has been found

[learieonthewildmoor]

A friend of mine died suddenly a few weeks ago. He had separated from his wife last year and had made a will.
He had been invited to a wedding next year. The mother of the bride texted his ex-wife asking that money from his estate be used to buy a gift for the couple.

Everyone who knew and loved him is still reeling from his death. But the important thing for this woman is her daughter still gets a gift from him. How in the name of all that is good and holy would you ask that?
My friend, God love him, was a tight bastard and would have been buying the cheapest thing on the registry; which makes it even worse somehow.

I hope your dad asked her to hand them over? This was straight theft.

Tempting to go full bad taste and say "Oh, is he still invited? That's great, he's been embalmed, so we can just prop him up in the corner."

Would anyone talk about a very recently deceased loved one in this manner? 😐

Agree. Some posters on this thread are prioritising trying to be funny over actual decency.

I apologise for my sense of humour and misreading the room. I'll ask the bods to remove it.

I absolutely believe it. When my biological mother died and left us sisters some money, a woman who married my uncle 2 years previously demanded all the money or she'd never talk to us again.

Sounds win-win to me!!

Sorry i don’t understand. Are you a sister or daughter?

Presumably both - the daughter of the biological mum who died and also the sister of the mum's other daughter?

Still confused!

Of course she’s the sister of her mother’s other daughter?

There's nothing like the death of an elderly comfortably off relative to get the vultures circling.
I bet there is enough stories for a whole new thread!!
I have heard a few warning stories about folk leaving a %of their estate to charity and the bereaved relatives being hounded in their hour of grief.
I understand the need for charities to receive their money but a little compassion goes a long way.
My mother very sensibly left a set amount to the church, unlike an elderly spinster and lifelong member of the same church, who left her house to the church . Her family had an awful time dealing with her estate, with the church threatening legal action at every twist and turn, until they got their hands on the (very large) bequest.
I wont be leaving anything to any charities if I have anything left !!

Are there any posts on this thread you’re NOT going to try to pull to bits?

Haha what a hard choice in answer to the quoted message !!! whoever wrote “I don’t understand this “ she says she is the daughter.
what tf is wrong with people . 😂

Wow what a choice 😂😂😂

some loss there !!!! I’m sorry about your mum xx

I am both a sister and a daughter :P

My biological mother's sister in law (for 2 years) demanded that we 3 children, all girls, give her our inheritance or she'd never talk to us again.

Unfortunately, she didn't keep her word.

Whaaaat!! This CF takes the biscuit 🍪

Unfortunately, she didn't keep her word.😀😀😀
