Bailey Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Ok so what do ya'll think about this, a local man who was a millionaire over 92 years ago set up a provision in his will that his estate NOT be disbursed for 21 years after the death of his last grandchild, so basically he left no money to anyone that knew him while alive, well today the money is disbursed, but his kids got nothing, his grandkids got nothing, and his great grandkids got nothing.....I don't even know where the money goes. http://www.mlive.com/news/saginaw/index.ssf/2011/05/wellingtons_millions_great-gre.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidfresh832 Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 He seemed kinda hateful to do all that. but, honestly if i had that kinda money there are a few family members I would go to any length in my will to make sure they didnt get 1 red cent of my money after i died. I would make sure there were NO loopholes so they asses wouldnt get a penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it seemed like the town he lived in pissed him off trying to tax his shit while he was alive so he cut them out of the will. Then his daughter got a divorce or something so he cut her shit out for being a disgrace. Only one son still got paid a decent yearly sum I guess. He still had descendants that lived the money just had to be paid out after the last great grandchild died or something. So his great great grandkids still got bank.

Bailey Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 Im reading the story now, it's in four parts, long short of it cliff note version the money will be split among 12 descendants and this man hated his family just that bad. In total, Burt’s six children, seven grandchildren, six great-grandchildren and 11 great-great grandchildren missed out on the inheritance, whether because they weren’t eligible for it or because they didn’t survive the 92-year wait.

Hell teachers these days have to work with bad ass smart mouthed children all day and still barely get that much. And in those days that was alot more money that it seems today.

Bailey Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 this is sum made for TV shit here, Lord he fucked them over BIG time: Those who will profit: three great-grandchildren; seven great-great grandchildren; and two great-great-great grandchildren, including Cameron and her 20-year-old sister. The recipients have Burt’s blood in common, but many share little else. The youngest is 19; the oldest, 94. They’re scattered across eight states — as far west as California and as far east as Connecticut. Only one resides in Michigan, where Burt made many of his millions. Even the amount owed to each descendant differs greatly. While some would consider Cameron’s take a goldmine, she and her sister will receive the smallest share — 2.6476 percent each, to be precise. The biggest beneficiary will receive between $14.5 million to $16 million, or a 14.583 percent share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidfresh832 Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Judge is all smiling and shit cause he got a big name case, Id be pissed the fuck off to have to research all that shit. He gotta go thru family trees and shit to weed out the liars and people trying to get money that dont deserve it. 30 people tried it but only 12 are really eligible.

Mr. Wonder Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I think in cases like this, the property goes to the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cnd Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 That's a pretty nasty thing to do. I'm not sure what his family was like or what his reasoning was, but to do that is just vile to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
