Fair is fair

Today, I learned that my deceased dad left his entire considerable estate to charity because it was "fairer" than trying to divide it evenly between his three kids. Some of our properties have been in our family since Jefferson was President. FML
I agree, your life sucks 304
You deserved it 101

It's better than leaving his charity to a museum built to his own glory. At least you can still get a slice if you or your kids fill up the charity's terms and conditions.

It must be hard growing up so wealthy that you just assume there’s going to be a substantial inheritance… Welcome to life for the rest of us. You get what you work for in our world.

It was all in his name; none of you are entitled to any of it.

If he inherited it, it’s a dick move of “**** you, i got mine” and pulled up the ladder. Not saying it’s right, but nothing is fair in this world. I hope whatever charity it goes to at least helps people instead of using it to enrich its shareholders and do almost nothing for people. (Sometimes the only difference between a charity and a business is the forms they file)
