Someone else posted on another thread a republican judge threw out case because she medically couldn't move and she wanted somewhere closer to her. They then claimed the below:

she refused to appear for an independent medical examination despite warnings that failure to do so would result in the case’s dismissal.

So in context sounds like they got him off on technicalities. I dont know much else so hopefully someone else fill more.

    From when 1st saw him in dune as a child, I saw him as a role model and father figure. I cried hard all the way home after watching Logan because of him and I never cried in a movie in my life. I hope he understood how much impact he had on the lives of his fans. The characters he played really embodied what it meant to be the change you want in the world.

    If fleeing a country, what items would have good resale value? (reddthat.com)

    What kind of things could a person carry to sell and how if they ever had to forcibly leave?

    I read diamonds are worthless second hand.

    Solid gold seems legit but not sure if coins or jeweler is best.

    I saw something about getting gold chains to trade individual links in a emergency.

    Are there any other good tips?

    ‐---------‐----------------------------------------------------------

    Edit: Put in a Consolidation effort based on comments and side research

    1. Jewelery is good getting through customs as some countries have limits on what you can take over borders. Canada for example has 10k limit before you have to delcare and it is not clear if per person.

    1.a) Always buy jewelry you plan to wear anyway because you will not get full value back.

    1.b) Buy from reputable locations. Looks like Mene was a popular one.

    1. Gold coins are good but get normal ones like Eagles, Buffalo, or Maple as it's easier to sell. Fancy ones are cool as collector item but will require more haggling.

    2a) Bars are cheaper over spot but can be harder to sell overall

    2b) Seems like libertycoin had consistent reviews.

    1. Cash is light but if your origin country currency dips then it's worthless.

    2. Crypto requires you to have your wallet seed and importantly access to a pc and electricity.

    3. Make sure to have a backup skil/trade to live off of.

    4. Transferring money between banks can have legal issues.

    House refinanced 3x (reddthat.com)
     

    My grandmother bought the home we lived in the 90s for 90k at a 8% interest rate. I found out she refinanced the house several times from what seems like predatory practices and malicious advice and now owes 250k at 6%. Basically the house I thought was paid off now has 30 mortgage and she is 90. Her grandkids are in the will to inherent the house but do we inherent this mortgage?
