Brothers were so poor they live in a cave.Now set to inherit share of 4billion grandmother inheritance

Brothers Geza and Zsolt Peladi who are set to inherit a share of £4.3billion

A pair of down-and-out brothers are days away from sharing a £4billion inheritance.

Last month Hungarians Zsolt and Geza Peladi were living in a cave because they were so poor. But on Monday they, and a sister who lives in America, are set to inherit their grandmother's fortune.

To do so the pair have to travel to Germany after finalising their paperwork to confirm their identity.

Geza, 43, said they were to travel to southern state of Baden Wurttemberg and added: 'I think in three days it will be confirmed that we are very rich.

'It's an old saying that money breeds money, but I never knew how true it was. We haven't even had any of the inheritance money yet and already people are lining up to give us more.

'I have been given a room of my own in the homeless shelter, with my own bed, where it's warm which is great this time of year.

'So many people are being so nice to me everywhere I go and now RTL (a TV company) in Germany have signed a contract to cover the story and paid us a fortune.'

The pair are believed to be using the money to help push the legal paperwork through.

They will then travel to Germany to finalise their claim.

Geza said in an interview with a local Hungarian journalist: 'To be honest I am not allowed to say any more - I can't talk about my family, how I feel, nothing. It's all in the contract.'

He added that his brother Zsolt was not so pleased about all their new friends.

He said: 'He hates crowds - but when we wanted to go back to our cave there were TV crews everywhere. He has found somewhere else and told me not to say.
'I accepted the offer of a room here - this time round it's a room all to myself. It's great. Before there was not always space in winter and often I would share a dormitory but not now.'

A spokesman for RTL in Hungary confirmed that the brothers were on an exclusive contract and refused to allow any interview.

Geza added: 'My agent says RTL have done a deal for the story all over - ITN, NBC, CBS and other television stations. We really can't say more.'

The brothers' agent, Zoltan Hujder, also refused to comment when contacted directly.

When asked if the amount reported was correct he would only say: 'It is more than an average Hungarian can imagine. More than all of the people they know put together will ever have.'

Geza had earlier admitted: 'We knew our mother came from a wealthy family but she was a difficult person and severed ties with them, and then later abandoned us and we lost touch with her and our father until she eventually died.'

They learned of their good fortune after charity staff working with the homeless in Hungary were contacted by lawyers handling the estate of the brothers' maternal grandmother who died recently in Baden-Wurttemberg.

Under German law direct descendents are automatically entitled to a share of any estate and it would pass from the boy's dead mother to them.

Geza added: 'If this all works out it will certainly make up for the life we have had until now. All we really had was each other - no women would look at us living in a cave. But with money maybe we can find a partner and finally have a normal life.

'We don't know yet if she even told our grandmother about us. I understand it was only while they were carrying out genealogical research that lawyers found we existed.'
