My eccentric brother, 62, inherited our dad’s $150,000 watch — but he wants to just throw it in the ocean and I could use the cash. What can I do?

Siblings don’t always fight over finances, but when they do 68% of those conflicts are over their parents’ money. The top disputes revolve around inheritance matters. Surprisingly, these conflicts often aren’t about cash at all.
