  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - My (31m) Cousin (30m), who I will call Jake, has always considered himself the "favorite" of all the grand kids because of how our grandparents would always do stuff specifically with him.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - The real reason why they "only spend time with him" is because he lives five minutes from them whereas the rest of us live in different states, me being the furthest at a 13 hour car ride.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - None of us know where this entitlement comes from, even Jake's parents have called him out on his behavior but it doesn't change.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - So to the story, my grandma passed away 10 years ago and my grandpa is getting up in age (92m) but still amazingly healthy despite it all.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - My dad, aunts, and uncles were having some discussions with him leading up to the summer family reunion regarding future funeral costs, making sure his will was up to date, insurance, etc.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - We get to the reunion this past August and all is going well until Jake starts to make a comment about how he's "totally getting the house and Grandpas refurbished cars".

  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - (My Grandpa rebuilds old cars with my Uncle, Jake's dad). We all ignore him like usual which seems to upset him so he decides to "prove it" to us and asks Grandpa directly about the will.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - Grandpa gathers all nine of the grandkids together and tells us that his major assets, house and cars, will be sold and divided equally among all of us grandkids.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - Jake lost his shit because, despite years of being told that he loves all of his grandchildren equally, he still believed he was the "favorite" and would therefore get most everything from the inheritance.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - It got even worse when he realized that this included our step cousin Erin (25f) who, despite being in the family since she was 12, "wasn't even a real grandkid".
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - TLDR: This devolved in to literally the entire family ganging up on Jake, hurling all kinds of insults at him for the things he said.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - The reason I'm writing about this now is that I just got off the phone with another of my cousins an hour ago, who told me that Jake was arrested last night for trying to steal one of our Grandpas cars.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - But since he never once actually helped with those things, the idiot tried to steal one that didn't even work yet.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - So from what I've heard, Jake is currently sitting in a jail cell with his parents refusing to bail him out and my Grandpa has a meeting with his attorney on Thursday to remove Jake from the Will.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - Sorry if this was all over the place but this is the basic gist of the drama currently taking place in my family.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - Edit: Just to clarify, Grandpa had discussed this in advance with all of his kids (my dad, aunts, and uncles) and as everyone is well established in life they were happy to let the money from the house and car sales go to the Grandkids.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - Everyone will still be getting sentimental items too of course. Edit 2: None of us know why or where Jake gets his ego from.
  • Inner_Tumbleweed_942 https://www.reddit.com/r/EntitledPeople/comments/1o5wxjk/entitled_cousin_ruined_his_life_after_a_family/ - He's a college graduate, had a great job working for a local mining company, his parents are honestly my favorite aunt and uncle to hang out with, he doesn't do drugs, and he's the kind of guy to nurse a single beer for an hour and call it a night.
