Hellyp - hold your head high ! You have done the right thing and as you can say you can move forward knowing you have followed the right route ! I would too prefer to have my relative back but actually the legacy they have left is just as important and from above they will always be with you every step of your new life.

As I have said before, many look on paying an inheritance into an IVA as "lost" money, and, yes, it probably wasn't what the donor would have wanted to happen to the gift. However, another way to look at it is that the donor has given you a boost towards a new life, a second chance and a gift that will carry through the rest of your life. Fast cars and fripperies soon disappear, but a new start remains.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

I would always have looked on an inheritance as a way to pay off some of my debts. Anything to be debt free!!!!

I'd like to think that my relatives were happy that I was sorting my life out with whatever they had left me.

and what better gift would a loving father want for his child? think of how much he loved you now,you're moving forward thanks to him.

ofcourse you'd rather have him still here.

i'm sure he'll be watching over you,your conscious is clear,[;)],it takes time to come through such a big loss,look after yourself x.
Nothing stays the same...everything changes..hang on in there!
