Why is it that family drama and wealth seem to go hand in hand? Maybe it’s the thrill of the chase, or maybe it’s just the promise of never needing to work another day. Either way, inheritance has been a source of laughter, tears, and plenty of “dad jokes” for generations.

Fun fact: the world’s smallest inheritance ever recorded was just one cent! Yes, a man in Germany received this hilariously humble sum after debts consumed the rest of the estate. If that isn’t enough to make you chuckle, we’re about to serve up a hilarious lineup of inheritance-themed jokes to share at your next family gathering.

Whether you’re the heir to a fortune (or just a stack of mismatched Tupperware), these jokes will have you cracking up faster than you can say “executor of the will.”
