Telling your partner about your future inheritance?

My (29F) inheritance is currently ~2.5m. I have a very normal unassuming job, and do not have access to any of my inheritance at this time. My parents will begin the process of transitioning some stocks/investments to me within the next few years, but nothing huge. My inheritance will likely double, possibly more, before I have access to it in any real, tangible way.

At what point should you clue your partner in on your expected inheritance, if ever? It seems very unwise in the dating stage (plus I don't "have" anything right now), but when things become more serious (engagement, talking about marriage, etc.) it seems like something that would be necessary to mention when planning a financial future.

A few million is pennies to the ultra wealthy, but to the average person it's life changing and I am very fortunate to have this safety net just by pure luck. I am weary about mentioning it too early, potentially to the wrong person with perhaps not the best motives or morals. That being said, I don't want to "hide" something that could affect our financial future in such a significant way. When is the "right" time to share this info?
