Smith's Gold Hunt Is On

Gold digger and former playboy centerfold, Anna Nicole Smith was given the go ahead from the high court to fight for her right to collect half of her late husband's fortune.

Smith's dead husband was an Texan oil tycoon, who was valued at over 1.6 billion American dollars. Here's the fishy part. Why does a 26 year old topless dancer marry an 89 grandfather? Well it's easy to understand the man's motive, but what's she thinking? Money? Bingo. For over a billion dollars, even I may consider marrying an 89 year old for 14 months! That's how long the marriage lasted, when her husband died and Smith was ready to jump at inheriting the fortune.

But woah, slow down there bessy. Check the guy's will. Everything was left to his son. Smith was not mentioned as a beneficiary anywhere in the will, yet she insists that her husband verbally promised her at least half of the money. Hence, since his death in 1995 she has been battling in court to get half of the money from the son. She has a very weak case, and is only tieing up the Texas courts, but is very persistent and the courts are now allowing her to keep on trucking. My bet is, she gets nothing. An ex-stripper gold-digger's testimony vs. a physical documented will isn't the fairest fight.
