    I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth.





    No really, my inheritance consisted of a silver spoon (plated). Market value, about $10.

    I was born with a gold spoon in my mouth. My dad spray painted a normal spoon. This is probably the reason why I have lead poisoning as well.....

    I got 2 balls, decent inches in front and a last name. Depending on what I do with it, it could be worth a lot... or a lot of nothing.

    I won't get that or my trust fund money until I graduate from college with my Bachelor's Degree. Oh well, two more years.

    I'll let ya know in 30+ years. I hope I don't have to find out what I get any sooner than that. The one plus of being an only child!:)

    For now I just get to use my Exxon stock to buy a new car. Which I'm only taking out half for a nice down payment on my much anticipated E92.

    It's not so appealing to me, I'm receiving it because my father died when I was 14 years old.

    That right there is awesome! Beautiful work.

    I wish I would have been able to see my grandparents live as full of a life as your grandmother. Sadly they did before I was born, or reached my teens. My grandma is left, however, she's been in a seemingly coma type state since '94 after she suffered a major stroke.

    It's great you have those paintings to hold on to.

    To all you married deadbeats with kids, ski boats and a mortgage that DO NOT have enough life insurance:

    My dad passed away leaving my mom enough money from a $25K life policy to pay off the house and his credit debt, leaving about $10K for Mom. That really sucked! Not that I wanted a dime, but it would have been nice to see my Mom with more money in the bank for her 'older age' (now 86). My Dad could have had a decent life policy when he was younger for around $50 a month. My brother and I keep my Mom in a decent car, etc. She deserved more than that.
