re: Does Money Truly Bring Out the Worst in People?

Money has the potential to trigger a myriad of emotions.

In the context of someone dying and people fighting over their money - - it is guilt. When we lose someone, we always challenge ourselves that we did not do enough when they were alive to show them our love. We tell ourselves we did and that as a physical manifestation of this - - our loved one would have wanted me to have "X". Guilt, even moreso than anger or jealously, can take people to very dark places and be the driving forces behind very bad decisions.
