Leaving no inheritance for ones kids

It's not up to us to decide if him leaving his inheritance to a charity instead of his kids is a good or bad thing. that's a very personal choice. His kids might not deserve it.

I wouldn't do that. I want to leave a good asset for my children, my house.

There are many people who have done that and will be doing that! It is a clear cut message to the society that the kids of his and family members have mistreated him! So lesson from such incidences is that every one must take care of the parents irrespective of their monetary status! Thanks @augusta123!

I think it's very nice of him to leave some to charity but I also think he should leave some to his kids. Not so they're dependent on it but just to make sure his family is taken care of. His kids could fall on rough times or get sick and the money could help so I think I would prefer to split it among the kids and charity

It sounds right to me. Don't you figure out what he says? If children develop the habit of dependency they cannot think of designing the future

Maybe that person has a reason. It really doesn't sound right, especially if those children are his or her own.

Maybe his kids have wronged him in some way. I am sure there is more to the story.

i think world has changed leaving inheritance is harder.

I think that could be his way of saying it isn't our business what he's going to do with his money.

Great thing he has done. He has decided to give his wealth to the needy ones. I hope he remains true to his words while making will.

I don't know why some people think that way, so those he will be gifting can't also fend for themselves, best bet write a will or divide the assets when you are still alive for the kids and there will be no struggles when you are gone and give whatever percentage to charity ,charity begins at home. Those you want to gift to,give them the chance they will also struggle like the children.
