Congrats bro,

Family members can be vultures when they want to be, I think it's best to use your discretion to hand pick those whom you know to deserve it in relation to their relationship with your grand ma first, then you second.

Don't feel obliged to spill a penny to someone who you've never seen/heard from your whole life bar a few family meet ups

Only my immediate family know right now i.e. mum, dad and sister. But will have to tell the aunties and uncles sooner rather than later. Luckily my dad is the boss of the family so no one can chat sh*t to meh.

It's easy to say cop properties but some thought and strategy should go into it before becoming a landlord, not to say he doesn't know but yeah.

Search for potential housing asset growth areas like Stratford and new housing developments and try get yards on auction, homes under the hammer-esque.

Besides that though, some conspicuous consumption must be happening what will your first selfish buy be?

Congrats. I'm happy for you.

You must feel over the moon but with slight pressure? Sounds like she past the family torch onto to you to run with & hopefully expand.

Your late granmother reminds me of my wife's granmother who past away last year. She was also came from JA with nothing from those early times. It's amazing what she managed to achieve & consequently left for her family.

When her will was read out people's true colours came out tho. It was very sad to watch but :lol: @ family members who never/rarely checked for her coming out of the wood works & expecting hand outs.
