Watch out for scammers, too—never pay up or share info without proof! #Business #MakeMoney #MoneyLifehacks22Share

Samuel Gutierrez+FollowWaiting on an Inheritance? Here’s the Real TimelineIf you’re expecting an inheritance after a loved one’s passing, don’t start refreshing your bank app just yet. Even if your aunt promised you’d get everything, only what’s in her official will counts. Probate (the legal process to sort out her stuff) is slow by design—think months, not weeks. Executors aren’t required to give you constant updates, and debts get paid before anyone inherits. Bottom line: Don’t budget for money you haven’t received, and patience is your best friend here. #Business #MoneyLifehacks #Inheritance00Share
