So my grandmother passed recently, and I got her will
My birth father was always a piece of shit, always stealing from his mother and ditching his kids whenever he could, I got to his part of the will and
Grammy had the last laugh
This is actually done for legal reasons. If Chad was excluded from the will entirely, he could make the case that he was supposed to be included but was forgotten, and get a big chunk of the estate. By explicitly giving him $1, it shows he wasn’t forgotten so he doesnt have a case.
