'Please give me some money!': Former millionaire, 92, says own children took his life savings

"Family is fucking crazy"

Dad died 20 years ago, he gave the farm land (640 ares) that he still had in his name to his brother to add to the 3 and half sections he already had.

Mom remarried about 15 years ago. The guy was decent enough, as long as one could tolerate hearing about how great two of his sons were; worth multiples of millions. And how rotten one of his sons was, Financial type, always scamming him out of money.

Regardless, and very sadly, Mom passed away after a lengthy illness last year. In the past 15 years I back and forth between Manitoba and BC four to six times a year, and when she was ill I was there for a good six months. Painfull as hell.

When she did died she left a shade more than $500,000 to him. The deal being when he passes on; myself, being the only child get's what's left.....and that lasted until two weeks after she died. He changed his will and the Millionaires get it all.

Lulz, it's real life. What the fuck can one expect, the rich get richer and all that.

Lesson? Live hard, spend it all, and take a walk on the ice when you're too old to manage you own affairs. Leave nothing but ashes.
