Ancestor 1 collects stuff

Ancestor 2 collects stuff and inherits ancestors 1 stuff

Ancestor 3 collects stuff and inherits ancestor 1 and ancestor 2’s stuff

Ancestor 4 collects stuff and inherits ancestor 1 and ancestor 2 and ancestor 3’s stuff

Ancestor 5 collects stuff and inherits ancestor 1 and ancestor 2 and ancestor 3’s and ancestor 4’s stuff

Where does it all end, it’s starting to build up now? Especially if you don’t want any of this stuff and/or it doesn’t suit your lifestyle.

Also, what about when Ancestor 6 collects stuff and inherits ancestor 1 and ancestor 2 and ancestor 3’s and ancestor 4 and ancestors 5’s stuff, gets married and has some kids and gets divorced and ancestor 6’s wife gets 90% of everything?

Our family lawyer told me many years ago “You can’t direct your estate from the grave, enjoy life now”.
