My family is for the most part, poor and as such has nothing of any real value to pass down.
My old man is the first one to go on and accumilate some material wealth, but I'd rather he lived a fair old while yet than think about what he is likely to leave me in his will.
On the wifes side we have been left a house by her mother (who is still alive and lives there), but we now own the house outright.
