In the movie the “Rain Man”, main character Charlie Babbitt went infuriated after discovered he did not inherit a single penny from his father’s incredible 3 million savings after his father died. Instead, the money was left to his autistic brother, who he never knew existed. The movie showed us the story from Charlie Babbitt’s point of view. It is quite inevitable to feel sorry for the character, thereby feeling he deserves more from his father who were cold to him all his life. However, it is unreasonable and far fetched to assert that Charlie was entitled to half of his father’s estate, no matter from a moral point of view, or a lawful point of view.

In a lawful society, there is no such thing as having “entitlement” of other’s property.
