This is the most troubling thing I have heard in forever! My husbands brother , who is the trustee of their mom’s estate (with full access to all finances and decisions for 18 years when she became widowed. ) she was of sound mind and body and young, but she’s a nervous type and he was “the smart one” . We just discovered that he’s been using the trust (meant for her care and keeping as long as she lives, and she’s very healthy) as his own petty cash slush fund. He has three million in real estate and an Ivy League mba, and deCided to put his kids in prestigious $70k a year private schools (because he believed the sports teams were better and the kids were phenoms) And he needed a new $120,000 master bath. A lot of stuff my MIL was saying about her finances didn’t add up. So my husband asked to see a statement. What a sh*t show. At first she was in such a panic (as she should have been as she’ll most likely outlive her money) at the missing funds . But then she slipped right into “100 reasons my golden boy did nothing wrong” mode. It was all about protecting the one she mistakenly trusted (and who didn’t want to sell his beach house) . Anything left upon her death would have been half my husbands, who is unemployed and 85% were he should be for retirement (at56). It’s horrible when I hear folks squabbling over a favorite lamp…but blindly robbing the parent or siblings they were charged with fiduciary responsibility in managing the money (then getting a pass from the elderly mom ). I have no doubt they all expect I will jump in and be a hero-but I won’t. And in truth my husband is afraid of his brother , as is I suppose their mum! I’m sorry this happened to you !

People are horrible esp when it comes to money. I am sorry this occurred.
Stay honorable and God will help u through. But so many have screwed over their own family members. It is disgusting. Hang in there. Thank you for sharing. It is Well with My Soul
