re: Does Money Truly Bring Out the Worst in People?

For example, I’ve heard stories where, when the last living parent dies, instead of comforting each other, the children of the deceased fight over the parent’s material possessions and what inheritance was left behind.

Inheritance is a pretty bad point in someone's life to judge their character...its a period fraught with opportunities to show one's arse. First and foremost, at best, emotions are raw. Toss in some money and old grievances and its the perfect storm for humans to act their worse.

It is almost universal, even when there is no inheritance involved.
