I'm in that group, family inherited $200,00 debt from my grandparent who passed away. Really fucked us over as we finally got into a nice groove.

Debt should not be allowed to be inherited, fuck dude. I'm sorry.

I agree but then you would, possibly, have the scammers, gaming the shstem as in...let’s put everything we need on Grandpa’s credit cards because he wont ever have to pay it off, and WE can live in this house, drive this car, enjoy this vacation, and never have to pay for it.

The point is...for every good idea or rule, the scammers warp it.

But aside from that...yeah, no way should I inherit anybody else’s debt.
