So background, I'm 20 y/o, my father died 13 years ago and he gave my mother a lot of money in his will. Of that money she gave my sister 100k on the premise that she wouldn't spend it, only hold it. Several years later, and after she spent 30k, I get cut a check for the rest, 70k. So here I am with a check written out for 70k and everyone in my family says that if I deposit this check I'll get screwed out of the money by the government. I was going to open a new savings account with that money and leave it there, because I don't intend to spend it, but them saying that leaves me hesitant. Is what they are saying true, and if so is there anyway around that?
