Subject: Re: Safer to diversify?
Sorry for my English. Some years in school, some living in New Zealand = not enough apparently. Maybe I should write in German and leave the rest to Mr. Google's translator. Ok, I try again in programmer's language instead as my mastery of that might be better:


IF you are a US non-resident THEN

.....Your inheritance in form of either US stocks OR US real estate OR personal tangible property in the US is subject to 40% inheritance tax. This even applies if you leave all to your spouse.

.....IF you are fully aware of that THEN
..........You might nevertheless decide to have all your money in the US
.....ELSE
..........You should not do so but first research this tax issue and talk with your spouse etc. as it can be highly dramatic for your heirs
.....END IF

END IF 😉
