Debts will also only get paid out of their estate and never transferred on to kids or family unless it is using a joint account or the inheritors explicitly accept it. If they transfer the assets before they die, then die with 0 assets and a ton of debt, the debt just disappears (as far as their family is concerned).

Unless I am understanding that loophole wrong.
