Money To Come From Dead Mother's Estate

PLANTATION, Fla. -- Ronald Novack has been homeless for more than 10 years, but the Broward County man is about to have a change of luck.

A newspaper article asked the public for help in finding the 61-year-old Novack, who was set to inherit $100,000 from his dead mother's estate.

Authorities said he visited a doctor's office on Thursday, the same office where his mother was treated before dying in 2001. After reading the article, the staff there contacted authorities.

He was told of the big news by an attorney, who was hired his attorney last year to investigate whether Novack could claim any inheritance money. Novack said he had become frustrated with delays, dropped the investigation and went back to living in the woods.

1. Yeah, he's all set. Attorney's fees $20,000, taxes, 40,000, bank charges
12,000...he might just as well stay in the woods.



:silly:

2. Um, even BEFORE the Repukes got rid of the inheritance tax,
it NEVER kicked in before $100k, and I think it was closer to $300k before you had to pay a dime.
