Epic prank bro

By Rachel - 20/07/2012 05:13 - United States

Today, I found out my late grandfather left me a significant amount of money in his will. I thought it was weird because he always acted like he hated me. When I got the envelope, there was $500,000 inside, all in Monopoly money. FML

Haha Your grandfather sounds like a real joker

It seems easy to laugh at that but if that happened to me I'd be crushed...sorry OP

Good, now give that to your best friend and say, "my dad owed your family this money take it."

who would be dumb enough to count monopoly money? unless you were actually playing the game. and it was probably stated in the grandfathers will, 500 000

So your grandfather died, and your upset because you got fake money? You should be upset he died!

First of all, we don't know how OP feels about her grandfather, considering he hated her and gave her fake money as a last trick. Also, please tell me why OP has to feel bad that her grandpa died? Considering that he brought her hopes up by thinking he actually loved her and was brought down by the fake $500,000, OP could have lost respect for him. Don't tell people what they should do over events like this. I bet you would be upset too if your dead grandpa trolled you like that.

Thank you THE_A_TEEN for saying it all. I also grew up with a grandfather who hated me because 1. I'm female and he wanted a boy and 2. I was his daughter's child so I didn't have his last name, I had my father's. These were two things I could not control but they were deal breakers to him. Of all his grandchildren I am by far the most successful but in my entire life he never had one good word for me. When that old bastard finally died everyone got a piece of the pie except me and it's not upsetting because of the money. It's upsetting because of the exclusion and the obvious hate from someone who really SHOULD have loved me.

My dad favored my brother for the same reason. He preferred a son and he flat out told me why "Boys can pass on my family name. You can't."

No. 73, it never ends. I also grew up with parents who favored my stupid, lazy, druggie brother for the same bullshit rationale. I graduated from an Ivy League school. He flunked out of five colleges, each crappier than its predecessor, before finally squeaking by at "Chicken Shit College." He has a criminal record. I have never had a single incident involving the police unless I was the victim. He has had multiple marriages to losers. I married once and am still married to the same man. He is 50 years old and they are STILL subsidizing him because he has an entry level job. I am a top person at my place of employment and haven't received one thin dime from them in about 35 years. Well, why should he try to do better? Our dipshit parents are making his mortgage and car payments and just treated him to brand new furniture because 'he was tired of his old stuff.' And yet every time I am in their presence I have to hear all about how he is the 'genius' of the family when actually I am so much smarter than that asshole that it isn't even a competition. I guess if you consider being the consummate moocher a 'genius' skill then he is, in fact, a genius and smarter than me since my husband and I pay our bills with money we've earned, so upon further review, genius, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder and is contingent upon how you value being responsible and acting like an adult and having some self-respect.

Thats still better than my grandpa. He left me a bible, knowing full well that I'm an atheist.

Well No. 39, that was an asshole move on his part. Not all grandparents love their grandchildren unconditionally, do they?

That's about 30 sets of replacement Monopoly money (each set has $16,550), so what he left you is worth a between $100 - $120. He must have really hated you to put so much effort into his posthumous prank.

Yes, but not by much. When the OP sells the fake money on craigslist, she can take the proceeds to buy a bunch of illegal Mexican laxatives and take the most disgusting, disturbing shit on his grave.

One, it's "Dougie". Two, what's that have to do with the FML? ._.

Look, don't start the Water Works just because he railroaded you like that. Actually, he sounds like a pretty Electric guy! To take your mind off it, take a walk along the Boardwalk or through a Park Place. In the eVentnor that you can't let it go, fly to the Mediterranean for a vacation or pray to St. James for help. Good luck.
