Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Anyone willing to admit they are expecting an inheritance?

Just curious if an inheritance is part of your retirement plans, or if you do receive one, would you leave it for your grandchildren, or a mixture of your children and grandchildren? I'm sure my dad did not receive an inheritance from his parents, because they were dirt poor. My dad was pretty successful, and apparently left my step mom in good financial condition, but I have no idea what she has, or if we (seven children) or our children will inherit anything when she passes.

Proverbs 13:22
A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children:

Our only child will be well taken care of. At least as of now, she only 3. I don't expect anything from my parents, besides, the wai was when I was a teenager, they will probably leave me the bills.

Nope. Should do ok on what I have built and my children stand to end up with something. Unless of course the government decides someone else deserves it more than we do.

My Sister and I will be set, not looking forward to the day, and hope it's a lonnnnnnng ways away.

The only inheritance coming my way is family immigration papers and such, civil war discharges and great-grampa's sheriff badge and Colt revolver

Suppose that verse was referring to worldly wealth?

Our financial planning was always based on being able to help our parents in their elder years. I worked a couple extra years to do so and did not retire until my father in law (our last remaining parent) passed away. As it turned out my mom left us a small inheritance and my father in law left us a slightly larger one. We are very grateful and would trade it all in for another day with both.

It would be nice but I don't expect anything.....

Mon and dad are both long gone. There was almost nothing left when my sister got done with them. I have been waiting for my stinking rich uncle to pass but since both mom and dad were only children that plan seems to have some big holes.

Nope, I am on my own. The one thing that gives me great comfort is when I go my wife will be well taken care for. Our baby of the six has done well and plans to make sure she has all she needs and more.

I'm leaving everyone I love a box of Winchester Big Bore .375 ammo. That should put the young ones through college and set the old ones up in retirement homes for life.

The only thing i expected to get from my Father when he passed away,was my his Father's 11-48 16ga shotgun.

My DAD told me a long time ago that because he had to wait till his passed away i would have to do the same.

Well he Passed away on DEC.15 2013 and when the time came i let my younger brother have it.

It just seemed like the right thing to do.
I got them both to let my Grandson have the 410 pump,he is only 3 now,he can grow into it.

My middle brother got his 12 gauge 820B savage.

I have his 1100 20 gauge and a 11-48 16ga he bought at a pawn store.

My Mother-in-law does all right for herself as well as my MOM.

As far as anything coming from them,I could care less if they spent every cent they have IT"S THEIR MONEY.

That said like scott i still look at the road leading to the house waiting for the rich Uncle that i didn't know i had.

I have seen more than one family torn apart and ruined from waiting for the big money to rain down on them.

No, if it comes it will be gravy, never relied on one or planned on getting on one.

Then they weren't that close to begin with.

well, the one in particular I am think of was 'that close' at one time..........

Mine will be the eternal life in heaven with my Lord. Nothing else counts.

I knew since I was about 13 or so, I would have to work for the rest of my life. My mother passed away when I was 11, went to live with the grandparents. was on my own at 18 and it has been that way ever since. When my grandpa passed I saw 600.00 out of my mom's share or what would have been her share. When my grandma passed I saw nothing and didn't expect nothing, I did get a quilt that she made before she passed, that is all I wanted. The 5 Aunts and 1 Uncle claimed it all.

Same here Clos, Don't want or need anything, however, any kin start acting like blood sucking buzzards I'll need a good lawyer, 'fraid I'll start slapping greedy dumbasses.

My folks are both long gone. I never even considered thinking about the inheritance. Mom and Dad were far from wealthy, but they managed the money they had very well. Their house was paid for, and that was the extent of the estate outside of Dad's guns. My in-laws are still with us, and I refuse to think about any inheritance. I just don't think it's right for me to think that way. If anythings, so be it. If not, so be it too.

Yea I have not seen but 2 of them in like 8 yrs. My favorite two out of the bunch.
