#18: Thanks For the Headstart, Grandpa!
Life often grants certain individuals a head start or advantages in pursuing their goals, but not everyone has equal access to such opportunities. This resource access discrepancy can be particularly evident when starting a business or a new venture.
For the person in this story, inheriting a small allotment of tools for their business upon their grandpa’s passing was a stroke of luck. While it may not appear significant to the average person, high-quality tools can be expensive. Acquiring these tools, however, required some not-so-pleasant interactions with other family members, highlighting the complexities and sometimes uncomfortable negotiations that can arise when assets are distributed among heirs.
