You fellas sound like a bunch of raging liberals, trying to reallocate the wealth of this poor fellow away from his family. Please, think about that. Worse case scenario, the young man inherits and puts the money right back in the economy. Do you folks, somehow, think you are entitled to make this guy's decisions? I'm glad I am not related to most of you folks!

I agree with James a trust is a good option. yep, and you could suggest ONE TIME smaller amt(s) to the MN Trappers Assn, RMEF, Ruffed Grouse Society, Trout Unlimited, etc, etc...like 5 or 10k ???

Just giving it away without requiring need, cause or condition is definitely liberal.

What are your views? Talked to a buddy of mine that has a very terminal cancer. Sounds like he's got less than 2 months. He's fairly well off, worth a few million so he says and I believe him.
Anyway, it sounds like he's gonna leave everything to his son who is about 35-40. I've know the son for years. Never had a job for more than a few weeks. A total drunk/ meth head and has been for YEARS!. Dad has spent buco- bucks bailing him out of trouble. Got into a small debate with him without stepping on his toes about why he would leave it all to his totally worthless kid. His reply was, ( who else am I gonna leave it too) Now, I ain't all knowed up on money but for those that do, can you not declare leaving it too anyone you see fit? What makes folks deed their hard earned $ on someone who will blow on drugs? The guy KNOWS his kids a loser, talks about it but still is gonna leave him everything. There is a a young guy that is a super respectful/ hard working fella helping him out for years with no pay. The guys kind of a hermit and doesn't know many people. Just drives me NUTS he's gonna give it all to a total loser instead of giving it to the kid that bends over backwards to help him out. Am I outta bounds if I bring this up too him?
Mind your own business.

While I watched my wife die, had she wanted to give everything she owned to her only daughter a the last thing I would have done is argue with her. Maybe, this fella didn't spend enough time raising his kid while he was making his millions? Who knows? Whatever the reason, it sure isn't up to us to second guess his dieing wishes.

Well maybe I'll try to set the senario better. The father is a VERY simple man. I really don't think he knows better. To him, giving the $ to his kid is just " the way" it's supposed to be. I'm not sure he knows about other avenues to distribute it too?. I've made up my mind( I think) , I will say nothing to him about it as much as I want to. Some of you guys are right. It's none of my business.

True, I'm of the mind my own business camp for the original question. Though I'm also tactless enough to tell a dying man his only son is a bum just because I feel being polite is sometimes over rated when telling the truth is needed.

Bucks.... In the end I think your somewhat right. If the fellow doesn't know better, helping him get in touch with a good attorney to set up a trust is a very good idea. You may not like who he gives his estate to, but whoever it is is a better option than giving any more than need be to the state and federal govts. They have been whacking away at that earned wealth all the guys life, they are the ones who should get nothing more.

I agree, Osky. It sounds like a person who needs a little guidance. The suggestion of setting up a trust account for the son through an attorney is a good idea. It might make the son more responsible. If the father doesn't want to take that advice, at least you made a fair suggestion. Then, I would bow out of the situation. In the end, it's up to the father what he wants to happen to his money.

I love how all the non millianaires NEED to give the actual millionaire financial advice.Cracks me up. Nooo, unless I'm mistaken which I could be I did not read that the guy has Alzheimer's? I took it the fellow is not savvy so to speak in dealing with some things, his estate being one. Add that to the devastation of just being told you have terminal cancer and only 8 weeks to live things can get very foggy. Wether this fellow has one hundred dollars or one hundred million dollars makes no difference in context to my statement nor who he gives it to. My suggestion was purely to keep the state and federal govt out of things. Deleted that, wasn't called for. Osky

It's none of my business. Bucks, you came in here with a tough nut to crack, listened to MANY opinions. I believe that you have thoroughly sifted through it and have come up with the best option. Not an easy task, but I think that you have come up with what is best for everyone involved. Let the chips fall where they may.
