It does refer to the reality that knick nacks like a $300 AR is NOT going to be mentioned in a will, thus they will just flow to the first kid that wants them.
The whole thing was just a figure of speech anyway but in true internet fashion you and Trader latched on to it like a dog and won't let go. .
What else would you call it if the stuff is not mentioned in the will, assuming there was a will in the first place. It just flows to whatever kid wants it. That is reality. I am not sure what fantasy world you live in. It is still just a figure of speech, like "Obama inherited the housing crash from Bush". I really doubt that was in a will and the last time I looked GW Bush was still alive
+1
But it's like Trump, when you get something wrong, just keep doubling down and wandering in the wilderness.
Yup, not a peep about "instant inheritance via murder". I think we can put that claim to bed. Even in Florida, it doesn't work that way.
No, what we latched onto was your refusal to say at the time that you were (incorrectly) using a figure of speech. Instead, you dug in your heels to defend a losing argument. Whatever. It took way too long, but I'm glad you got there.
I thought having thigs for the sake of having them was as American as apple pie. Are your children communists?
That's why I'm not moving to an apartment, even if I have to crawl up the stairs to my bedroom.
Close, I guess. My daughter especially is very portable. She has lived in 7 different states and multiple addresses in some. East to west 5000 miles and back with stops in between. She has not collected very much along the way.
When he moved to FL, if it didn't fit in his Hummer it didn't go. Fortunately his new wife is a widow that had everything you need.
Contrasting that, we got rid of a lot of stuff and still filled two 20' pods. We have some stuff from when we first married 53 years earlier. Still use it.
Maybe I am just more pragmatic than you.
You never gave me a chance and I tried. In typical troll fashion you and Trader latched onto a quote and started citing laws.
I moved to Florida in a Van and a Firebird (1 trip each)
Sure they are, in most wills and any will drawn by a lawyer. Typical clause: "I bequeath, convey, and devise the rest, residue, and remainder of my property, whether real or personal, and wheresoever it may be situated.... "
Assuming this when it's not true is often what starts fights.
