My father died early without a will, and his estate was split between my sister and I. She got an extra $45,000 for being 17.5 when he died, because minors here automatically get that amount first out of everything in probate. Then, we split whatever is left after that.

I took my portion and bought his house from the estate. Part of that went to my sister as well. So, I think she ended up with about $80k cash, and I walked away with the house. I believe about $27k that I put down for the deposit was my total inheritance. The house wasn't worth much after paying off the mortgage, and it needed repairs.

Later, my dad's parents died and didn't leave me anything. So, I guess the 3k loan my grandmother forgave before she died counts. If I'd known, I wouldn't have paid back the other 2k the month before, and it would have been 5k. It's a bit annoying because my grandparents kept promising an inheritance and left nothing to me and everything to my uncle. They could have just never made empty promises... I wouldn't have expected anything if they didn't bring it up multiple times. Just feels like lies and betrayal.

My great grandfather left my brother and I $50k in elementary school, but my uncle stole it and spent it since he was in charge of the estate.

I don't expect anyone else to leave anything. Maybe a rug I requested from my in-laws and family pictures from my Nana. If they do then great surprise, if not then no biggie. So, I suppose about $30k total that I actually got.

I AM DONE. So her and I met up yesterday because it was our day off. She had sympathy for the death of my grandparents. So we went to the movies because she wanted to cheer me up and not sulk and mope all day and it won't do any good.
After the move and lunch we went to the ice cream place and she looked at me. She got frustrated and scolded, “Why do you still look moody? Is this what your grandpa would have wanted? To be sad all the time and cry? I am trying VERY VERY VERY hard to cheer you up and you don’t seem to appreciate! Look people die. We’re not going to be around forever. We’re NOT! At least show some appreciation and buck up. BUCK THE HELL UP!!!” And she shoved me and stormed off to the bathroom.”
I was shocked and everyone say the whole thing and looked at me. I just put my head down. Then I got so angry and when she came outside when she saw me with my things I scolded what the hell is her problem and screaming at me when I just lost my grandpa last week was uncalled for and very insensitive. Then she yelled, “Okay? What did you expect me to say? It’s the truth which you are too immature to handle. That I’m sorry for your loss? People die so there’s no use of crying! He’s dead he was old! He isn’t coming back GET OVER IT ALREADY!! And shoved me.
I went off on her, “That does it! I have had it with you!!! I’ve had a lot of insensitive people in some of my family and I don’t need this shit from you! You’re supposed to be my friend but I guess you don’t know how a damn thing about being one and empathy! Next time you see me, don’t look at me, you see my number, don’t call me, lastly don’t even come near me because this friendship is OVER! I AM DONE!” I grabbed my things, purposely numbed into her and left just in time for my Uber life to take me home.
I don’t know what she did after but I didn’t care.
