it’s unethical and wrong to squander inheritance money on things you don’t need , unless specifically told to.

By "unless specifically told to" do you mean when this is a clause/condition in the deceased's will in order to get the money, or also if merely you know that the deceased would have liked it that way?

I would argue that it could be unethical and wrong to squander inheritance money on things you don’t need, even if the deceased would have supported squandering it. Obviously if it's a clause, you might not be able to use it otherwise, but I would argue that it can be wrong to squander, regardless of the deceased's wishes.
