There's nothing quite like an unexpected financial windfall to bring out of the woodwork people who you thought you'd never see again. Everybody wants to be your friend if they think they are entitled to a few dollars (or more) from you, especially when they happen to be family members. No matter what your relationship may have been in the past, all of a sudden it's water under a bridge that's paved with gold. It can cause a real dilemma.
One man faced exactly this when he unexpectedly came into a substantial inheritance from his grandfather. His sister had abandoned him a decade earlier after their parents passed, but she decided to come back into his life when she learned of the money and demanded that he share it with her. It's no shock that he refused her request, but some of his other family members weren't pleased. Luckily, the internet was on his side.
