Two 40 something Hungarian brothers have been living in a cave. They said their Mother was a difficult person to live with & eventually abandoned them. They survived by selling scrap metal & an occasional candy bar they found on the streets. They have a yet unidentified sister who managed to make it to the United States to live. The Mother died & it has now been discovered that their German grandmother has died & they are the sole heirs of a $6.6 billion estate. Now the brothers are thrilled because they want to have a "normal" life. They say it was almost impossible to get a date as NO woman would want to date a man who lived in a cave. They think it might be easy to get a date now!!! What would you do if you suddenly found over $2 Billion being set in your lap???

Wow well done to the Boys
That is certainly amazing
What would I do , help my Friends who need it, my Children make sure they are set up for Life, buy about another 10 Gissi's, Open a Kennel and get People to run it for me, but I will be deeply involved to, set my Mum and her Husband up for Life, Give to Charity, Get Gissi a big double bed of his own lol
But this is what I would do with it

What a wonderful, happy ending to their story! I hope whoever is executor of the estate makes them take a financial management course so they don't spend it all or become victims of fraud. I hope they live happily, for a long time!

I thought about the same thing. The really need a financial planner to take care of them. Their wish is to be normal. I can't think of even one billionaire who is normal. They could continue to live in their cave & have women lining up outside to become their wife!!!

How sad to be abandoned by their mother. That just breaks my heart. If I suddenly had over 2 billion dollars I would definitely start by buying our three kids new homes, cars and furniture. Once the kids were taken care of, I would get a Corvette, new pair of tennis shoes, buy more property, invest some, make sure our grandkids had a college fund started, donate some to the charity of my choice and then go gambling. Not necessarily in this order. It would be loads of fun. Since I'm not a shopper think I would stay in the same house and keep the same furniture. Oh I would also buy a new computer desk. This one should be condemned...lol

Wow, maybe they will be comfortable buying some land that is their to live on. Maybe they can get one of those open style houses or a home they feel comfortable in. I'm sure they would jump at the chance to no longer have to be so vulnerable to the cold.

I think not many people must be living in a cave who are lucky enough to come out as a millionaire. I mean there are mothers who are difficult to live with but who has the courage to live in a cave anyways.
It also teach us a lesson that God is always with you and he always compensate you for the good deeds that you do.
I might to to a world tour and plan to buy a farm house as well. Like in peace and harmony.

These guys are Billionaires NOT millionaires. I think their mother was so difficult to live with that she kicked them out of the house. They had no job & no money so they moved into a cave to have a warm place to live. I don;t think they moved into a cave just to get away from a mean mother!!!
Yes God does watch out for us. These 2 men could have chosen to rob & pilfer from others, but they chose to live honest lives. They didn't blame others for the things that happened to them, but were happy to have the life that they had. I just don't think they are being very realistic as to how 2.2 Billion dollars is going to change their lives!!!

That would be awesome. My husband and I both work seven days a week right now, to make ends meet and to plan for his retirement in about 9 more years. I would love for us to be able to have time off if we found that kind of money.

Wow.. speak about humble living and suddenly becoming rich! Awesome.. and fabulous! LOL.. life is very unpredictable, and this story just confirms it for me that one can go down but one can definitely go up too. There is luck definitely. Hopefully my good fortune will come for me soon.. . About that date thingy, oh yeah.. I don't think they will ever have a problem now.

If that happened to me, wow I don't know how elated I would feel. I will ensure that I invest the money wisely so that I never go poor again. Life is very strange but I an happy for the brothers.

If I have an inhiritance of 2Billion I would immediately purchase a property that is just enough for me not luxurious but a house I can call a home & invest some of the money while put some money into trust fund that I can use in the future. I would also donate some part to charitable foundation as my means of thanksgiving God.

Hi LadyMarissa, Forget about the billions or trillions!!! tell me more about how the brothers managed to live in a cave. It sounds interesting to hear.
