oh, in the US debt dies with the estate so unless that’s part of a corporation or partnership, they have nothing to worry about (and even then, they would have to choose to accept ownership of the hypothetical encumbered business entity . I’m not smart enough to think why someone would choose to take said debt unless the debtor held other leverage, as i have yet to acquire income-producing debt. #$%^$&#!)

Not as much as making things up for clout.
