MODERATORS
Yeah the tweet really showing how clueless they are there.
He got the details wrong, but the important part right. They live off of loans and either let the interest ride or only sell enough assets to pay the interest. When they die, their heirs can sell as much as is needed to pay the loan tax free because the basis is reset to the current value of the assets when they are inherited.
