‘What should I do with an inheritance’ and ‘How should I invest an inheritance’ are questions we might never hope to need to consider but many are forced to consider these every year here in Ireland.

The reason I guess that this is a relevant topic here is because I have seen several cases where people inherit money, then act irrationally or in ways that is to their own detriment, and they end up blowing the lot on senseless stuff that they wound up regretting a short time later.

That is hardly a respectful way to behave with the likely hard-earned legacy that a loved-one has left you!?

Surely, a better outcome! I’m out to help even a handful of people to avoid that same regret.
