1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: Order Up, What Up? Friends? 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 2: I based in the courtroom this week with another case 3 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 2: in Key Key Court the podcast Now Listen. This case 4 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 2: did not make it on air, but I still need 5 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 2: to get your opinion. Now. 6 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you the case. 7 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 2: If you're new here, I post a video on Instagram 8 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 2: TikTok all the places for you to leave your response 9 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 2: in the comments because you are the jury, okay, and 10 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 2: I be needing my jury because sometimes I'll be on 11 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 2: the wrong side of history. But you know me, you 12 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,879 Speaker 2: know your friend. Anyway, let's get into today's case. It says, hey, 13 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 2: ki Key, am I wrong for refusing to split my 14 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 2: grandmother's inheritance evenly with my siblings because I was the 15 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,480 Speaker 2: only one that took care of her. My grandmother passed 16 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 2: away recently and left me twenty five thousand dollars in 17 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 2: her will. She specifically named me as the beneficiary and 18 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: not my siblings for context. I was the one who 19 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 2: lived closest to her. I took her to her doctor's appointments, 20 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 2: I cleaned her house, I did her grocery shop, and 21 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 2: basically spent every weekend helping her for the last four years. Now, 22 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 2: my siblings they rarely visited Grandma. They only came by 23 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: on holidays if that well. When the will was read, 24 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 2: my siblings freaked out and said that it's unfair that 25 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,680 Speaker 2: I get everything while they get nothing. They think I 26 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: should split it evenly three ways because we're a family. 27 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: I told them no, Grandma made that choice for a reason, 28 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,199 Speaker 2: and honestly, I feel like I earned it. Now they're 29 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 2: calling me greedy and saying that I'm tearing the family apart. 30 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: My mom is trying to stay neutral, but she keeps 31 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,839 Speaker 2: dropping little hints like, oh, sharing it would be nice, 32 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 2: and sharing it would keep the peace in the family. 33 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 2: I don't feel guilty, but everyone else seems to think 34 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: that I should just give in and split the money 35 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: that my grandmother left for me. Am I wrong for 36 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 2: keeping the inheritance to myself instead of splitting it? If 37 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: it all went down the way you just described it 38 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 2: in this email, baby girl, you are not wrong. 39 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: You are not wrong at all. 40 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 2: Grandma knew exactly what she was doing when she set 41 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: up her paperwork before she passed away. She knew who 42 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 2: she wanted to leave things to. She knew she wanted 43 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 2: to give you twenty five thousand dollars, and she knew 44 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 2: that your siblings hadn't done anything to help her. So 45 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 2: Grandma was aware of all of that, and Grandma knew 46 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 2: exactly who she wanted to leave the money for. If 47 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: Grandma wanted the money to be split three ways, she 48 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: would have written that, but instead she said, no, all 49 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: of the money goes to you. And if it's true 50 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 2: that you're the one who was taking care of her, 51 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: you're the one who was helping her out in her 52 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: last years, then you deserved that money and you shouldn't 53 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 2: be made to feel bad about it. This happens in families. 54 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 2: I feel like all the time where you know, somebody 55 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 2: gets older and there's always one family member who all 56 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: of the responsibility seems to fall on. And it could 57 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 2: be because they're, like you said, the one that lives closest, 58 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 2: or they're the most responsible one, or you know, they're 59 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 2: the one who's financially stable and they helped pay for 60 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: people to help grandma. 61 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 1: Whatever the case can be. 62 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 2: There's always this type of situation where you know one 63 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 2: sibling is more responsible and more helpful to the older 64 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 2: elders in the family, and then when they get to 65 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,519 Speaker 2: that point in life, the older elders seem to readjust 66 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 2: their wills and things to make sure that that person 67 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 2: is taken care of. And I don't think that Grandma 68 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 2: made a mistake. And I don't think this you're wrong 69 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 2: for accepting what your grandmother left you, you know, And 70 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: I think your siblings have a lot of nerve to 71 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 2: be thinking that they deserve something that was not gifted 72 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 2: to them. 73 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: It just wasn't. 74 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: So it would be different if Grandma died and there 75 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 2: was no will and then there was just money there 76 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 2: and you all, you know, you just decided to take 77 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 2: it upon yourself. 78 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: That would be totally different. 79 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 2: But in this case, I feel like Grandma made the 80 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 2: decision before she left us. May she rest in peace, 81 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 2: and her wishes need to be honored in this state. 82 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: So I don't think you're wrong. I don't think you're 83 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: wrong at all. And if I was the one running 84 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 2: around doing everything, my siblings wouldn't get a thing. I'm 85 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 2: just gonna be honest. I'm getting choked up over Grandma anyway. Friend, 86 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 2: you are not wrong in my opinion, but of course 87 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 2: I will.
