After lockdown restrictions were lifted, her entire family visited her once. When they learned the news that she wanted to stay abroad, her mom and brother stopped visiting, but Lee made an effort to fly out and see her a few more times.
Sadly, Lee passed away a few months ago. It turns out he was suffering from a disease but kept it hidden.
Right before his death, he was on bad terms with her mom, as he had found out that Sam was not his biological son.
Therefore, in his will, he only left her mom with hardly anything extra, only what he had already given her, like her cars, nice jewelry, and some cash.
His businesses and assets were left to his relatives, Sam was left $150,000, and she was left with the rest of his fortune. It’s a seven-figure number that she describes as life-changing.
“My mom and Sam were mad, of course, and demanded that I share money with them,” she explained.
“I said I’m willing to put the money in some low-risk investments, and we can split the gain. Not good enough.”
Her mom and Sam want at least 25% each of the amount Lee left her. She told them no, and argued that they each got enough to live a good life.
Sam has enough money to get into a good college, and her mom has enough money to get her own place.
Then, if they choose to put some money into investments, it could potentially benefit them further.
Her mom and brother are still very angry and are now threatening to take legal action against her. Thankfully, Lee’s relatives are on her side, as they don’t want anyone going against Lee’s wishes.
