Defrauded Grandma Strikes Back - Part 1

Lies, fraud and just plain ripped off. This week on the first episode of the two-part season finale of A Life’s Story, our host Leslie Gold sits down with Beverley Schottenstein, a 94 year old woman who was defrauded by her two grandsons. From stealing property, to using her wealth to establish careers, they eventually began siphoning off large amounts of cash to increase their own wealth, unknown to Beverly at the time. When they were finally confronted, they accused their grandmother of having dementia, telling her that she was mistaken and essentially didn’t know what she was talking about. Even her son, the boy's father, piled on and was critical of Beverly. But that didn’t dissuade her from putting up a fight and standing up for herself. Hear the remarkable story of resilience, wealth, family dysfunction and doing what you believe is right versus what you believe is wrong. With the help of her caregiver and granddaughters, Beverly is able to make a stand and fight back against her grandson's blatant theft and put a stop to the betrayal. Leslie leaves no stone unturned as we also get to hear about Beverly’s childhood, what it was like growing up and how she came to meet her husband, Alvin. From being a teenager to becoming an adult, get a first hand look of how she was able to become successful and when she first started to notice red flags with her finances. We get to listen to the story of a kind old lady pushed to her limit, and despite not always understanding all of the legal technicalities of her grandson’s fraud, she knew it was wrong, and that didn’t sit well. Find out how she was able to put an end to the dishonesty and uncover familial betrayal of the highest order. 00:00 - Intro 02:51 - Interview with Beverly Schottenstein Follow Us on Social Media: Leslie Gold (@twitter [http://twitter]) A Life’s Story (@twitter [https://twitter.com/ALifesStoryPod]) (@instagram [https://www.instagram.com/alifesstorypod/]) (@facebook [https://www.facebook.com/ALifesStoryPodcast/]) Jam Street Media (@twitter [https://twitter.com/jamstreetmedia?lang=en]) (@instagram [https://www.instagram.com/jamstreetmedia1/?hl=en]) (@facebook [https://www.facebook.com/jamstreetmedia/]) Learn more about your ad choices.
