My Grandmother used to tell my Dad, "when I die you will get nothing"
As it turned out he was treated equally with his brother & sister
Dad regularly said to me "when I die you will get nothing" the emotional blackmail was horrible
Many of the arguments we had were because we were skint & he daren't take risks when I wanted to expand & grow.
A few years later with my much younger brother some opportunities came our way and fortunately we were successful
When he did die we became relatively wealthy, partly thanks to him but it was mainly due to the work me & my brother put in.
I now jokingly tell my son "when I die you will be a wealthy man"
He says "I'll already be wealthy by then" and as long as he's happy, I hope he is
