Replying to: marsha7 (Dec 03, 2008 7:12 pm) How does one "saddle my survivors with my debt"? Let's say I get hit by a Mack truck, I'm single, have a small term life ins policy to pay for my funeral, mortgaged to the max on my house, owe 6 figures on credit cards, just leased a new BMW 7-series, and have no other assets. How do my survivors (parents) get saddled with my debt? |
|
your funeral covered, and you are single, you would be fine...but if you were married in the same situation, someone would have to pay the mortgage or the wife and kids sleep on the street...

I can assure you with great certainty that there are much more than a mere 101 jokes about lawyers...

Replying to: marsha7 (Dec 07, 2008 2:53 pm) Isn't that a misquote of some lines in Shakepear where the discussion Involves the way to control a population of people? I thought the actual quote was something along the lines of if you want to take over a country you first kill the lawyers because they would prevent you from obtaining power by legal means. Thus the quote used to bash lawyers was actually in praise of them. Am I wrong? Maybe some of you folks with more "book learnin" than me can answer that.
