SOL = S.hit out of Luck

The moral/ethical thing to do would be to give you the money that your Aunt wanted you to have. But then again it sounds like your Aunt was rather foolish in the way she went about things. I mean no disrespect to the dead, but unless she was a very young woman, she should have known that there are precious few people in this world that you can depend upon when it comes to money.

Since she's gone, you'll never really know what happened. I think I would approach her directly in a non-confrontational way and say something like "I am very confused, my Aunt told me she was leaving me money in your care and I have not received it yet. Did something change before she died?"

Perhaps your Aunt did not make her wishes clear. Perhaps her expenses were more than expected. Perhaps she simply changed her mind. Perhaps Tina is just an immoral person.

I hope you can find a little of the closure you seek.
