Today, I found out my late grandfather left me a significant amount of money in his will. I thought it was weird because he always acted like he hated me. When I got the envelope, there was $500,000 inside, all in Monopoly money. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I attended the reading of my grandfather's last will and testament. My parents, as well as my brothers and sister, all inherited a nice sum of money. I got 69 cents, because, "young Jack always was an immature little shit." FML
Today, I attended the reading of my grandfather's will. I didn't expect to receive anything, since his side of the family had always ostracized me for being born out of wedlock. I did get something: $3,500, on the binding condition that I use a portion of it to get a vasectomy. FML
Today, I found out that when my uncle died, he left me and the rest of my family £2000 each. Only my parents kept and spent my share on themselves. FML
Today, I received a tip in Monopoly money. FML
Today, my aunts found grandpa's will, which left everything to me and nothing to them, and his lawyer confirmed on the phone this was definitely grandpa's wish. My entire family now hate me and think I manipulated him. My grandpa has hated me my entire life, so I think this is his way of punishing me. FML
Today, I inherited several buttloads of money from my grandmother, including property, and by gosh did so many relatives appear from the woodwork to remind me of money granny owed them, or how they just needed an investment to kickstart their business venture. The whole lot of them can screw off. FML
Today, I inherited a lot of money from a great aunt that I had forgotten about. Her immediate family are all scumbags who were only after her money, so she willed it to me and my mom to say "fuck you" to them from beyond the grave. Now I keep getting threatening phone calls. Thanks auntie. FML
Today, my grandpa died suddenly. About a month ago, he gifted me a few thousand dollars to buy a used car. My uncle is now demanding I return it, saying I can't prove that my grandfather agreed to it, and that he wants his rightful share of the inheritance. FML
Today, while paying for groceries, I opened my wallet to find that all my cash had been exchanged for Monopoly money. FML
Today, I found I'd inherited money through the death of my childless aunt, enough to be debt free and pay my entire mortgage. My cheating ex girlfriend found out and is demanding half, since my aunt died when we were still living together under common law. She’s getting solicitors involved. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Or maybe she found out about the amount before she recieved the ultimate troll from beyond the grave

Are you kidding me? Seriously? That's not how inheritance works. The executor of the will has specific instructions, and was obviously told to inform the OP of the amount, without revealing that the money was not real. OP did not receive the monopoly money, and count it just for the fun of it.

Yes. It never qualifies as hate until somebody writes a letter. The famous saying 'actions speak louder than words' was wrong. Well done! Also, read the FML. It says that the grandfather's past actions made the OP think he hated her/him and that's why the OP was surprised he left her something. Then her/his belief that grampie hated the OP was confirmed when it turned out to be monopoly money.

That was a dick move on Grandpa's part, but it is funny how he managed to get the last word in. Just curious, did he dick over anyone else?

Are you kidding me?!?! With that much money you can put up four hotels on Boardwalk and Park Place right away! What a sly actor the old guy was! With that kind of loot, you're a lock to win at the Monopoly World Championships.

You'll dominate in Monopoly, then. Sorry about your loss. But I bet he was hilarious while he was alive. Either that or just a huge asshole.

I'll bet you are sorrier about the OP's loss than she is.

That's terrible. Your grandpa sucks for making you think he cared, then crushing you.
