Well she's just going to have to do what Barron Hilton did to get his money - sue the charity! (From Wikipedia: "When Barron's father died in 1979, he left the bulk of his estate to the Roman Catholic Church and other charities, and almost nothing to his children. Barron contested the will because of his lifelong career of working to build the hotel company and won his lawsuit in 1988.") With the way the courts are now, she might just win.

Not to mention that at least once, as I've noted here, the Hilton chain has pimped PH out for a contest. However, I'll settle for 3% of $2.3 billion, even without the board of directors seat, and whatever salary/etc. attendannt, on the Hilton Foundation that PH and her cohort are likely to occupy.

Dude, it's her GRANDFATHER. Even Paris Hilton has lines she won't cross. Not many, but I think that's one of them.
