Just wish there were loads more rich people like him who contribute so much in taxes, even in death, that our public services can keep going...

I think its an interesting observation. gambling debts aren't recoverable by law. but why would very wealthy people avoid them?

Am I to understand from this post that when someone dies their gambling debts die with them?
