I don't expect an inheritance from my family, since they are not exactly well-off.

My in-laws family have been frugal all their lives and have saved. There is probably the potential for a reasonable inheritance. You know what? My wife and I told them to spend it if they want to. Would we like it? Hell yes. Would we turn it down or give it away? Hell no. But we love the family, not their money. We don't want them to scrimp just to make an inheritance.



I completely agree. If my Grandparent's wanted to sell their house and everything and go off and spend the rest of their days on a cruise ship, if they were happy I'd be happy.

The inheritance money would be damned useful, but it's not my money, it's theirs to decide what they do with it. My nan (who owns the house as they married after my biological nan died) worked her damnest and bought that house on her own in the 1960's. Everything they have they bloody well deserve.
