Good. I hope his great great grandchildren are left cursing his name because they inherit his debt. May his name be cursed, and his face fucked by demons in hell forever.

I don’t really hope his grandchildren inherit his debt, that’s not fair to them. I don’t know anything about them.

I’m sure they’ll look at how he could have left them enough to live a life of utter luxury beyond the imagination of 90% of people and instead lost it all on this.

That's not how it works in America FYI. Children can't inherit parent's debt. They can have inheritances taken away and they can assume debt, but it doesn't automatically go to them.

yeah the estate is responsible for debt but it stops there.

His kids will probably grow up cursing his name anyway, inheriting debt is pretty unfair.

However other shitty business associates who helped him spread this dangerous bullshit should be liable - as well as those who help him hide his money. These are the people to go after.

The sins of your fellow humans are not yours. He committed crimes, not his children and they shouldn't be punished for it.

I do hope any savings he put away from them are liquidated though. They were paid for by his victims, his kids were in innocent but that shouldn't mean they get a free ride either. Let them go to public school. Like the students of sandy hook.

You support inheriting debt? That's such a shit viewpoint
