Creditors here routinely go after family of people who died with debt. Happens all the time.

Send a death certificate. Nothing they can do to collect.

Have you ever lived in Germany or any European country? I have and life here is a thousand times better and I lived there as Foreign Service family.

Why is that?

No thanks.

What?

NP. It is true. I've always wondered about those German toilet inspection shelves.

In my mind, they exist because people had to eat secret spy messages to honestly speak to each other during the bad years. They would poop onto their handy dandy inspection shelves, then find the secret message below.

In reality it means you need to clean your toilet a lot in Germany.

I'd live there though.

Picture of what you are talking about, please?
I traveled throughout Germany a couple years ago, went to the bathroom quite a few times, and have no idea what you mean.

My DH applied to a 3 year tour in Germany and I cannot show him this or he wont take it, if offered. LOL I cant. I want it to happen just to see his face

While we'd certainly get some benefits that we don't get here, they would not be worth anything close to that.

You do realize that the overwhelming majority of Americans don't make even remotely enough to have to pay $140k in taxes, let alone $140k "more."

Nobody has any sympathy for you or your tax situation.

Well people who pay $140K in taxes — like me who paid $216K in taxes last year have no sympathy for takers like you. You are of no interest or concern

You need a better CPA and to stop posting about how much you don’t care:

Riiiight, Cletus, we really believe that!!

This country is full of racial strife, income inequality, craven consumerism, violence, and a high level of unhappiness and psychological problems. Have no idea why they ever left Norway.

Because Norway had a poverty level agrarian and fishing based economy rather than its current oil based economy. Your great grandparents missed Norway’s economic boom and came here as poverty stricken refugees and the US welcomed them as they have always done.

Norway is now wealthy enough to welcome refugees like you and those from Pakistan, Somalia, Eritrea, Iraq, Poland, and Syria. As you know, there has always been extensive discrimination against the native Sammi and that is extended to the middle eastern and African refugees
As a Norwegian descendant you will not face that discrimination, particularly as you and your family speak Norwegian
Be aware that there is a high level of domestic violence in Norway and mental health issues, particularly in the winter.

Norway is less consumer driven because prices for basics such as food are high and incomes are low. Your weekends will be spent cross country skiing in the winter and at parks in the summer. None of these have a cost.

Ah, I do vaguely remember that. Thanks.

Someone scrubbed all of the historical concerns.

I'd be eating better food too, but don't think that means Germany wants me
