520    Some of us are more equal than others....Meet Stanley 
       Huang: father, husband, ex-husband, man of unpredictable 
       tastes and temper, aficionado of all-inclusive vacations 
       and bargain luxury goods, newly diagnosed with pancreatic 
       cancer. For years, Stanley has claimed that he's worth a 
       small fortune. But the time is now coming when the details
       of his estate will finally be revealed, and Stanley's 
       family is nervous.For his son Fred, the inheritance 
       Stanley has long alluded to would soothe the pain caused 
       by years of professional disappointment. By now, the 
       Harvard Business School graduate had expected to be a 
       financial tech god ́ђأ not a minor investor at a middling 
       corporate firm, where he isn't even allowed to fly 
       business class. Stanley's daughter, Kate, is a middle 
       manager with one of Silicon Valley's most prestigious tech
       companies. She manages the capricious demands of her world
       -famous boss and the needs of her two young children all 
       while supporting her would-be entrepreneur husband (just 
       until his startup gets off the ground, which will surely 
       be soon). But lately, Kate has been sensing something 
       amiss; just because you say you have it all, it doesn't 
       mean that you actually do. Stanley's second wife, Mary Zhu,
       twenty-eight years his junior, has devoted herself to 
       making her husband comfortable in every waýђؤrubbing his 
       feet, cooking his favorite dishes, massaging his ego. But 
       lately, her commitment has waned; caring for a dying old 
       man is far more difficult than she expected.Linda Liang, 
       Stanley's first wife, knows her ex better than anyone. She
       worked hard for decades to ensure their financial security,
       and is determined to see her children get their due. 
       Single for nearly a decade, she might finally be ready for
       some romantic companionship. But where does a seventy-two 
       year old Chinese woman in California go to find an 
       appropriate boyfriend? As Stanley's death approaches, the 
       Huangs are faced with unexpected challenges that upend 
       them and eventually lead them to discover what they most 
       value. A compelling tale of cultural expectations, career 
       ambitions and our relationships with the people who know 
       us best, Family Trust skewers the ambition and desires 
       that drive Silicon Valley and draws a sharply loving 
       portrait of modern American family life.
