Re: Inheritance For Your Children

I don't know about this, Steve. I've always felt like our parents didn't OWE us an inheritance at all. They raised us, fed us, clothed us, sheltered us and took care of us until we were old enough to support ourselves. At this point in life, I feel more like I owe to my mom than that she owes to me (she is the only parents either of us have left now). I would give her anything I own. But I certainly would never EXPECT her to give to me.

On the other hand, I will say this: when Walt's dad died, he had bought a considerable amount of life insurance which all 4 kids split evenly. That money has been a very, very big blessing for us. But did he OWE that to us? No. Are we grateful? Absolutely!
