    On the contrary - sounds like the voice of sanity to me. Has it occurred to anyone that the poster might just be winding people up? If the sister is so keen on getting a share, why would it be split four ways rather than just asking for a 'donation' from her sibling now? Maybe one of these fake MSE 'dilemmas', which are never anything of the sort.

    No sorry, not fake. Your question answered previously.

    Is it possible that the sister is playing 'dog in the manger'? ie, she didn't get £50K so she doesn't want OP to get it either.

    I wonder what sister would think if Mum gave the OP £10k in order to treat both daughters the same?
