    Rslash - Making a will on your deathbed is not as easy as it seems, especially when greedy people are involved. Its all too common, and far too easy, to have people declared incompetent to make such decisions. My wife had to fight that legal battle when her dad died, and made a will during his last few weeks. It was a very long legal fight, and in the end, didn't amount to much use. By the time it was over, anything of sentimental significance to her and her siblings had "vanished", and the monetary remains that could be counted as solely his weren't worth much, especially after legal fees.

    The Will post: I agree that the mother should have made a Will years ago however, many believe they don't need one because they don't "have anything to leave" and then put it off too long. This is not an excuse and she SHOULD have made a Will, of course, but there it is. To be fair, in the end, she might have been in a health situation where it would be illegal for her to sign any legal/financial document. My husband died with an Alzheimer's diagnosis, for example, so thankfully he made his Will long before his diagnosis. This can apply to physical constraints, as well: if the patient is on heavy doses of pain killers sometimes, for example. Anything that could impede the patient's clear thinking, or open them to be easily coerced makes their last minute Will open to debate, at the very least.

      It also depends on what you want done. By default, when you die your money is distributed per stirpes - first to your spouse. If no spouse, to your children. If no children, then your parents. If no parents, then your siblings. If not sibling, your nieces/nephews. If no nieces/nephews, your grand parents. If no grandparents, your aunts/uncles. If no aunts/uncles, your cousins (this sort of ladder structure repeats until a willing heir is found, or if no heirs are found I think the government takes it? I’m not a lawyers so dont quote me on that bit. But basically, all is not lost if you don’t have a will and you trust your spouse/next heir. That’s enough for most people

    For those asking rSlash to take a break, do note that taking a break or vacation while still uploading daily still entails frontloading and recording multiple videos over a few days. This just redistributes the stress and I'd assume isn't as relieving. He also can't simply stop making videos, as the CZcams algorithm essentially punishes creators that don't upload consistently. I'd assume this is devastating for a channel that's been relatively stagnant in terms of views and subscriber count for a while.
    It seems like it would be much more beneficial for him to stop uploading every day. It might provide diminishing returns at first, but I think it will be much better overtime.
    EDIT: Including more positive, supportive, comical, or fulfilling subreddits in the palate of uploads would probably decrease the seeming burden of the workload, although I'm not sure how the views would compare to r/AITA and r/Bestof videos, for example. I'd hope most of rSlash fans would at least understand though.

    Are wills easy to set up? Sure. And just because there is a will doesn't mean that it won't be contested or you won't end up in a legal battle.
    My grandmother made multiple wills over the last 20 years. My uncle was named executor, which in the state they lived in carries certain fiduciary responsibilities by law. He has been refusing to respond to my mom, turned in older wills, despite being told where the most current will was. (My cousin later found it, right where my uncle was told it was, and gave it to the lawyer.) My mom is considering requesting an investigation of elder financial abuse. (There is evidence that he spent her money on things he shouldn't have.) There is an ongoing lawsuit against my uncle.
    Here is where it gets pertinent to the story: my grandma realized right at the end that her son had been taking advantage of her and at that point she was too ill to change the will, even if she wanted to. Even if you try to do everything right, sometimes it is just too late.

      @@Nikodymus funny you should say that. Turns out I'm part of this mess now because she did put everything in a trust a couple decades ago and I'm listed as a beneficiary. And, due to it being a trust, the will is irrelevant.
      My own parents have living wills, but all major assets are in a trust where I am the sole recipient (only child) with the only caveat being that it would go to my daughter if I was deceased. (She is also an only child.)

OP only gave as much detail as they thought was necessary, we don't know enough about the situation to pass judgement on the mother. Maybe she wasn't in the right state of mind because of her illness, so she couldn't legally list OP in her will after she became sick? She obviously didn't plan to leave him with nothing. Maybe try having some compassion?

    On Story 5/the will story: Rslash, that comment was really insensitive.
    My grandfather died this past September and while he did have a will, it hadn't been updated since my grandmother's passing about two years prior. Likely because handling her estate and his own grief was very harsh on him. But when it was clear to us he was dying, it was very difficult for us to have the doctor agree he was of sound mind and transfer authority to be his executor and power of attorney to my aunt [something he said he wanted prior to this anyway]- and that was just an edit to a very cut and dry estate.
    If she didn't have a will, the fact that she may not have been considered of sound mind before he death greatly impacts it. My grandfather was a smart man, even at the end of his life. He just made a mistake. At that point in her life, it isn't laziness or anything. She may literally have not had the time or the legal capability to get it done. That isn't considering what else in her life may have meant she didn't have a will [such as not being able to afford an attorney until it was too late].
    And health can go sideways fast. My grandfather was seemingly in perfect health before he suddenly passed. It was less than a week of him going downhill just before he was about to come live with us. We don't know the full situation with OP's mom, and calling her lazy and stupid is deeply disrespectful. Not to mention the absolute legal nightmare that can ensue with trying to actually go through with the will once the time comes- again, my grandfather's estate was VERY simply, cut-and-dry, and it only just recently got resolved. And that was quick, it was expected to take a full year.

      Taking a break or vacation while still uploading daily still entails frontloading and recording multiple videos over a few days. This just redistributes the stress and I'd assume isn't as relieving. He also can't simply stop making videos, as the CZcams algorithm essentially punishes creators that don't upload consistently. I'd assume this is devastating for a channel that's been relatively stagnant in terms of views and subscriber count for a while.
      It seems like it would be much more beneficial for him to stop uploading every day. It might provide diminishing returns at first, but I think it will be much better overtime.
      EDIT: Including more positive or funny subreddits would probably decrease the seeming burden of the workload, although I'm not sure how the views would compare to r/AITA and r/Bestof videos, for example. I'd hope most of rSlash fans would at least understand though.

It does seem to attract some really vile individuals who themselves probably suffer from a personality disorder, such as sociopathy or malignant narcissism, who get a real kick out of manipulating and preying on a victim pool of vulnerable people seeking help.
    I’ve met perhaps five therapists over the years who certainly enjoyed playing with people’s lives (3 psychiatrists and 2 psychologists), plus a medical student looking to go into psychiatry who was a horrible bully in high school. I hate to think how much damage such people can do in that role, and how many patients they’ve talked into killing themselves. OP should have sent the recordings to the therapist’s governing body.

    About that will post, my mom and I were in a similar situation, she was deadly sick and had no will. My "luck" was that I'm the only person left that was there to inherit anything. Anyways, in the end she wasn't able to make a will because the last three weeks of her life were only tollerable because she got the maximum dosage of Fentanyl you can give an adult. To put it bluntly, she was lucid enough to lament the mistakes of her life, but in no position to sign any kind of legally binding document. This might have been the same with OPs mom in this story, so... No, she's not stupid for not getting a will done on the spot (which itself can be fought quite easily due to the fact she's about to die), she's at most shortsighted to not make a will when she had the opportunity to.

    Even if people HAVE a will, it doesn't mean it's followed. My grandmother's will stated certain things were to go to my dad, and guess what? He died (with no will, because he was young with no known health complications) very suddenly, and the rest of his siblings took what was LEGALLY mine. My mom, who is an attorney, knew it wasn't worth the legal battle and asked for what she thought was necessary from my grandmother's house (i.e. plates for me to use when I moved out, or gifts we'd gotten her). Not everything is black and white, even when it comes to wills.
    And thanks for insulting anyone who died unexpectedly and didn't think they'd have to craft a will. And any potential attorney spouses who said they would help. Can't wait knowing THAT take'll get removed instead of an apology for being so callous.

For the mom, setting up an appointment with a lawyer so you can give your daughter your money (especially if your own husband probably won't help with it, because he wants all of it) sounds utterly EXHAUSTING. I don't think doing all that sounds like a good use of what time she had left, especially if she just wants to spend it with her family. OP'S mom may also have made incorrect assumptions about inheritance laws in her state, and when she realized her daughter wouldn't get anything without a will, she couldn't do anything about it, which sounds like what happened. :(

    1st story..love this one.Had a similar experience. We have a double wide shared driveway with our neighbour. The neighbour at this time had 3 ppl living in the house so 3 cars on their half of the driveway. We have 2 cars but one is always parked in the garage so only mine is always parked on our side. One of the ppl living next door almost always walked to work since it was only a few blocks away so her car was pretty much parked last in line. Since I worked in an office full time on graveyard shift there was never usually an issue with the other neighbours backing out to get to work via our side of the drive to get around the last parked car. I would normally get home around 8:45 - 9 AM. This one day I get home and there is a car parked on my side of the drive. Someone is visiting the neighbour. This car is parked up far enough to let me park behind it. This put me right beside the last car in line on their side and the owner has already left for work. The other neighours car is parked in front of the 3rd car and the idiot in my driveway is parked beside that one so she is totally blocked in with a car beside her, my truck behind her and our house on her drivers side so she has no place to go. As I get out my truck she comes rushing out "I'm only going to be 5 minutes." I say nothing, just shrug and go in the house. 45 min later she is knocking on the door. I open the inside door and she says "Sorry I'd like to leave now." I ask her "You know you are parked in MY driveway and not (neibours)?" She says "Yes". I reply "So you knew you were parking on someone else's driveway." Again she says "Yes. But I was only 5 minutes." I said "SO not only do you have no respect for other ppls property but you can't even tell time. Its been 45 minutes. Just so you understand how disrespectful this is I will be moving MY legally parked truck in MY driveway when I get GOOD AND GODDAMNED READY too and NOT a minute before. Maybe..just MAYBE you'll learn a good lesson today." I slammed and locked the door. I knew full well that she was stuck because the person who had the 3rd car in line was at work and she had the only keys for that car so there was no way it was moving. I proceeded with my normal after work routine and went to bed. I got up about 2:30 PM and her car was still there. I finally went out and moved my truck about 3:00 PM. She must have heard the truck start up, cuz she was out like a flash to move her car. As I was walking back to the house she gave me the stare down. I just laughed and said "And here ended the lesson. Next time I'll just have it towed." She could have easily avoided all this if she had just parked in front of the neighbours house. Plenty of free parking on our quiet side street. I really hope she had to be somewhere important that day. Neighbours moved about a year later. New neighbours are awesome.

    OP in the last story should have told Kathy that she needs help because someone kept calling their job and telling her to hurt herself and it's really getting to her. Then before Kathy can respond say 'you know what, never mind, that person is right' then hang up leaving Kathy with the agonizing guilt that she was responsible for someone hurting themselves.

    About the will thing: It's not hard to make a will that can at least be enforced or give someone grounds, even without a lawyer - at least where I live, any written or recorded message can be used as a will (though the husband might challenge it so there is an advantage to getting it notarised, however it is not necessarry in the slightest as long as you tell someone where it is.

    I think the last story with the call center was an actual strategy the therapist used to get more clients.
    Okay, so imagine this. You’re constantly tormented at your job, never having a break and even gaining low self esteem or mental health. So what d’ya do? You go to a therapist. The closest one? That therapist lady. It’s like some sorta step by step method to worsen people’s health to get more clientele.
    Kinda like a security company getting people to ‘break in’ to a house to make people believe they need the products they provide

    The 6th story reminds me of this one creep i encountered years ago when i worked at Rue 21. If you dont know, it was a clothing store in malls that primarily catered to young women. I was one of the assistant managers and was in my mid-twenties, and all of my employees were either underage or barely legal. Like 16-20 years old at the max. One day i answered a phone call from a dude who sounded middle-aged. He started asking me detailed questions about the underwear and lingerie we sold, and that he was trying to buy some as a gift for (take a deep breath) HIS MOTHER. Yeah. Not weird at all. His conversation lasted several minutes before i finally cut him off and told him i needed to help another customer. Afterwards, i tell the employees on shift with me about the creepy exchange, only to find out that theyve talked to him too. Apparently sometimes he said he was shopping for his "girlfriend" and sometimes for his "mom", and he always made these young girls describe the lingerie in excruciating detail - he asked how they look, how they fit, which kinds they like the best, if they own any of them, etc. Even worse than the call I just had. I was livid when i found out. I mean, these were highschool girls at their first jobs, and this grown-ass man was getting off on sexually harassing them. I went back to the call log (i dont think the dumbfuck realized we had caller ID) and got his phone number, as well as his first and last name. I wrote it all down on a piece of paper with instructions not to answer if he called, and if he called while i was there to bring me the phone immediately. Sent a pic of that paper to the work group chat and then left it by the phone. Guess who called back the next day? And guess who was working when he did? Instead of hearing a cheerful greeting of "Rue 21, how can i help you?" from a teenager, he heard me answering with something like "hi (his first and last name), quit harassing my underage employees. If you ever call here again, I'll forward your information to the police for repeatedly sexually harassing minors." He immediately hung up, and as far as i know, he never called again 🎉

    Story 3 - Oh I would be PISSED if I lost my MSc and my BSc by having it redacted!
    I graduated in 2018 with my BSc in Biomedical Science (IBMS accredited) - IBMS accreditation translates to I can work in diagnostics as a Biomedical Scientist (a BMS job is to diagnose and monitor patients, but not treat, that is a clinician's job) with my specialism being in Clinical Biochemistry.
    I leave my job of three years last year (August 2023) as I realised in order to go up the ranks, I needed a masters in BMS, specialism doesn't matter so much as experience is king. I have broken my back doing this MSc as when people say "School is easy", I actually found diagnosing patients easier than the absolute ball ache I'm doing now because of all the hoops of academia I have to jump through... I didn't expect to get a Distinction in my MSc but am aiming for a Merit (Masters course classification is Pass, Merit and finally Distinction (50%, 60% and 70% respectively). My final thesis is due next month.
    I swear if after all I had been through this year, I'd lost all that, I'd completely lose it...
    BMS = Biomedical Scientist/Science
    IBMS = Institute of Biomedical Science (the body which governs how medical labs are run in the UK as well as if courses are "worthy" of being IBMS accredited) as there is a very similar sounding degree called "Biomedical Sciences" that does not allow you to go into diagnostics and limits you to medical research.

    The last story - holy crap what a flashback! I had a similar situation when I worked nights at a pet insurance company. She called late at night and would ask a question, I'd answer, and she'd shriek back that that wasn't her question along with some insults. Kind of like her asking "Why is the sky blue?" I'd answer and she'd say "Thats not what I asked! I asked why the grass was green! How much are they paying you to be this stupid?" We got disconnected during the call and I immediately called her back so she wouldn't have to go through the phone system again and get even more pissed off, but I got her voicemail. Her outgoing message stated "you have reached blah blah blah, therapist..." Anywho, she was apparently already calling me back at the same time and continued to explode anout how I hung up on her, that I was an asshole for not calling her back (to which i explained I DID call and that I left her a voicemail)
    The whole call ended with her demanding to speak to someone else that wasn't a "Brain-dead f****** retard."
    I looked her up and she was apparently a therapist that specialized in ptsd treatment.
    This was MANY years ago, and I had to grow a pretty thick skin at that job. Eventually, I became a supervisor and made it a point to not tolerate that behavior towards my team.
    I left that job 5 years ago, and I still remember that damn "therapist." I feel absolute pity for her patients.

    You have to be of sound mind to make a will. If she was on certain meds when she realized she was near the end, the will could have been easily overturned.

    Hey RSlash, im not OP but I heavily sympathize with them a lot. My mother recently succumbed to cancer almost year ago and she could not have written a will at all in the state she was in because her brain was fogged, she was in pain and vomitting everyday. She couldn’t have written a will, it’s not easy when you’re about to die. Why do you think she used her last moments to call her kids, do you think the last face she wanted to see was a lawyer??? Be fucking serious man.
    All she knew was pain and suffering, I’ve been a fan since day one and this is by far one THE worst takes I’ve ever seen from you and to insult their mother who was dying/is already dead is such a low blow it pissed me off greatly. If someone had the audacity to insult my own like that I would’ve taken them outside to throw hands and I’m sure you would’ve too if this was your own family.

    Dude. That last story I'd have reported that therapist to the AMA!
    But also. I worked for a call center like the OP. We had a similar guy that would call ... hey did you know there's a river in England called Avon? Now you do... but he would call in to one of the companies I answered for - that sold make up and other stuff to keep your skin so very soft, sake women used to call in on the house wide to try to beautify her life... he would call in most evenings. Our company did not have the 3 strikes rule. We weren't allowed to hang up on them. But we were allowed to ask if there was anything else we could help them with 3 times, but very carefully placed our we got sanctioned, you couldn't just go "anything else? anything else?anything else?" and hang up, we also had to close the call it not just hang up. And we couldn't ban the callers. For anything. So dude would call in and ask the operators what we were wearing and were we wearing a dress or lingerie or heels and what we got off on and on and on. And if one operator managed to get through the whole riggamarol to hang up he would call right back and get a different operator. He would hang up if a male operator got him. He was trying to use it as a free phone s€x line basically. We would always pop up in our cubicles and stand to and point at our earphone to warn the others that the game was afoot, you could literally watch from across the room and watch operators pop up out of their cubicles like prairie dogs prairie dogging as his call passed down the line, one right after the other.
    Welp, one fine Saturday we were pulling overtime, but the recorded for blah blah purposes listener/ write you up lady was not. We all kept transferring him to the saucy gay guy with a side of lisp (by his request... the gay guy's that is) he would try to keep him on the line. He kept asking the guy if he could help with that.
    Eventually I got him and decided to keep him. I chose not to transfer him. He was stuck with me. I turned his questions back on him. Well what are YOU wearing? Did he wear dresses? A-length or T? Or did he prefer minis? What color dress would he wear if he did? High heels or flats? Fish nets right? And he just stuttered his way through awkward as all get. After a while my coworkers lost control of their laughter, they'd been listening the whole time, slow day. And he got so embarrassed and hung up. We didn't hear back from him that day. I'd like to say we broke him and never heard from him again and there was a slow clap and and everyone cheered, but the reality was he called back many more times before I graduated an left that job, but on overtime Saturdays when the quality control lady wasn't there we would spend the day either sending him to Saucy or turning his schtick back on him.
    Blue. Mini. Heels. Yes.

      There isn't an obvious solution, unfortunately.
      If he goes on vacation, he has to record multiple videos per day in advance. This probably just redistributes the stress.
      If he just stops uploading, he will receive less engagements since the CZcams algorithm desires creators who consistently upload
      If he stops uploading every day (the best solution, in my opinion), it will hurt his revenue. Though, I'd presume that uploading 5 or 6 days out of 7 is still a sustainable job.
      Uploading more positive, comical, or fulfilling content on some days might make the workload feel more burdensome, but I think more people are inclined to watch content like this because of its shock or drama value. Not sure how the views would compare, even though I'm sure most people would at least understand.

    About the No Will story. My Aunt & cousins went through something similar. It depends on what state (in the USA) you’re in but in CA my Aunt was dying of cancer and tried to set up her will but unfortunately was told because of all the drugs she was on (& in late stages of cancer) the state rep./ government employee determined she was not sound of mind (or something like that) and therefore couldn’t make a will in case someone was trying to take advantage of her in her weakened state of health. Of course this meant her sh*ty 2nd husband got everything like her house & money. My Aunt was fairly young like late 40 or early 50s so that’s why she didn’t have an official will. My cousins really got screwed over because their step dad promised he’d give them a fair share just like OP but of course it was a lie. I felt bad for my cousins because not only did they lose their mom but they couldn’t even afford to pay for her funeral because the stepdad refused to help financially. The rest of the family helped out of course.
