If you are required to buy health insurance, then you should be forced to buy term life insurance. If this guy had a waterfront home in Annapolis area, then he should have had life insurance. I have great sympathy for the family, but they should sell their valuable house and move to more humble digs. Why should I bail them out?

I agree. I used to live in Annapolis and I know how expensive water-front homes there are.

Yes correct. Then comes the other issue. Life insurance doesn't kick in until death (I think). She's not after his locked up life insurance (there isn't any) so don't have that hanging over her head. She already has access to his savings, so again not after money.

With no living will is the wife able to make the decision to pull the plug? Morally and/or legally?

That's actually the part that I'm having issue getting my head around.

I agree. Why should the taxpayers pay her bills, when she has a 3 story, waterfront home and $125,000 in savings?

Also, why would she expect the bank would want to refinance her loan, when her husband’s $122,000 per year income is gone and she only worked part time.

While I am very sorry for her loss, she seems to have some very strong delusions of entitlement. She seems to believe that the taxpayers and the bank have an obligation to provide funding for her to maintain her rather high standard of living.
