Woman is leaving her $2,800,000 fortune to her pets to get revenge on her children for ‘never visiting’
Woman Leaves $2.8 Million Fortune to Her Pets to Spite Her Children for ‘Never Visiting’
A Million-Dollar Decision Born Out of Frustration and Loyalty
In a turn of events that sounds more like the plot of a movie than real life, an elderly woman in Shanghai has rewritten her will to leave her entire fortune—amounting to a staggering $2.8 million—to her beloved pets. Ms. Liu, who spent her later years in the company of her cats and dogs, has reportedly excluded her three children from her estate entirely.
