Man leaves fortune to Los Angeles

A 79-year-old man has reportedly given more than $500,000 to the people of Los Angeles in his will, but snubbed his five siblings by leaving them only $US1 each.

The Los Angeles Times reported Theodore DiFiore died in 1990 leaving most of his assets, which included an old gas filling station and an auto repair shop, to the people of Los Angeles.

"I think he was just a ornery guy ... and why he chose the city of Los Angeles, I don't have any idea," said lawyer Robert Pasquinelli, who handled the case.

"It was an interesting probate in that for years the city didn't know what to do with this."

The Times reports Mr DiFiore's properties in San Jose were run-down and needed renovation before being sold, and that is the reason Los Angeles is only getting the money now.

Woah. Giving it all away to the city. Man...he must have been very rich. O_O

He must have hated his own kids.

Oh, I like to have that kind of money just to NOT leave it to a select few..

.. Snubbing his siblings and only leaving them a buck each, guess he was an ornery guy.

Gives to the City but snubbes his siblings???


I don't know about you guys but I'd care more about the family than the city.

Oh MY BAD, I thought it was his kids he snubbed.
