[ WP ] An eccentric billionaire has died , and divided his estate among his two nephews , who hate each other . The catch ? The estate has been divided in a checkerboard pattern of 10 foot tiles .

Marcus Peterson emigrated in 1970 from his native South Africa to find success and adventure in America. Over the next 45 years, Marcus would become one of the world's most eccentric billionaires. 
 
 On his trip to climb Mount Everest for the 3rd time, Marcus never made it home, leaving his estate and all that came with it to his sons, Phil and Steve. 
 
 Phil Peterson, one of New York's top litigation lawyers, had always wanted his father to sell his old and rotting estate in the Hamptons. `` You're too old to have a house that large, why do n't you downsize'' he frequently reminded Marcus. Now was his chance to get rid of that mansion once and for all. 
 
 Phil's older brother Steve was not ready to get rid of the house so quickly. `` Phil, this house IS Dad,'' he quipped. Steve always dreamed about living in a mansion instead of the homeless shelter he's resided in since he divorced his gold digging wife Irene. 
 
 `` Why do you let Phil push you around like that Steve? This is exactly the reason I divorced you.'' ^- ^Irene 
 
 Little did they know their eccentric dad divided the house like a checker board to get his kids to finally be friendly after 10 years of avoiding each other. 
 
 *^Quick ^Cuts* 
 
 `` So you're telling me, that the only way we can figure out what to do with this house is to get along?'' ^- ^Phil 
 
 `` I know Dad would want this house to stay in the family'' ^- ^Steve 
 
 `` I'm going to call my friends who specialize in real estate'' ^- ^Phil
