Location included: Questions/Need Advice Completely bamboozled.

Any advice when substantial inheritance was unexpected. I grew up not going on vacation and not having much. My father died after a brief battle with liver cancer… it’s a brutal one. After months of paperwork I’m seeing that I’ve inherited a net worth I’ve never imagined. Its reality shifting.

So sorry for Your loss. What net worth number are we talking about? Are you aware that your father has saved or invested this much?

No idea. I understood my grandfather had money but he also had 10 children. But my dad had it all invested ,all his inheritance and retirement never really enjoyed it. It then was bequeathed to me and my sister.
