This is sort of off topic, but the money I earned from the rental property and $25,000 I was going to use to take a trip to Scotland and buy several nice kilts.

Monday I received a letter from my probate lawyer stating that the check that was issued to my father was going to be re-issued to me, so that additional $25,000.00 was going to go into the estate. Well today, I received this e-mail from the legal assistant.

This was my reply: OUCH! I bet these are medical bills.
Well I guess I will have to sell the land, it is worth about $140,000; because I will not declare bankruptcy, my credit is too good.

I have put in about $1,000.00 into this process and have not made any gains; I thought I was doing the right thing even though he was my estranged father, now all I want to do is tell the funeral home to flush his ashes that I paid $600 for down the toilet!
