Linda Inherits Grandma’s Old Clocks & Greedy Brother Gets House, Turns Out She Got Almost $200K – Story of the Day

Brian, a greedy 26-year-old, mocks his 19-year-old sister Linda when they visit their ailing 90-year-old grandmother, Marlene. Marlene gives each sibling $5,000, but Brian dismisses it as too little and leaves without gratitude. Linda, who had lived with and cared for Marlene, returns the next day, adding her own savings to fund Marlene’s eye surgery. However, Marlene declines, sensing her time is near. Instead, Linda uses the money to renovate Marlene’s house, bringing her immense joy. A week later, Marlene passes away peacefully.

At the reading of Marlene’s will, Brian inherits the house, while Linda receives five old, rusty clocks. Brian mocks her, but Linda later discovers the clocks are rare, 100-year-old timepieces worth $40,000 each, left to her by Marlene with a heartfelt note. Linda keeps this secret, choosing not to reveal the truth to her greedy brother, knowing her grandmother’s love and wisdom guided her inheritance.
