Real Estate / Cousin stole my dads home in Poland... [49]

First of all a very basic Googling of the word "Polak" will show you it's very OFFENSIVE. Please use "Pole" in the future.

Po·lack (plk, -lk)
n.
1. Offensive Slang Used as a disparaging term for a person of Polish birth or descent.
2. Obsolete A native of Poland; a Pole.

Secondly, the will doesn't matter because your grandma gave away the property in full before she died. So unless you can show she was mentally incompetent - that's it. You have the right to give things away before you die and unfortunately that makes it final. Which is probably why your cousin got her to do that versus changing her will which could have been contested. My uncle did the very same thing but he only got half the house. Now we are locked into owning a house with him that he pays nothing to maintain.

Do you speak German? No? Then YOUR WELCOME you ungrateful SOB. Because if it weren't for those Americans you would be nothing more today than a slave to the Nazi machine.

Law / Laundromats in Poland? Good business venture or not? [90]

I don't know if the people that claim everyone has a washing machine in their flat are Polish or actually live in Poland because very few people in my family have one (or people that I know in Poland). At most they might have a small washing machine-no dryer. Other than that people do their laundry at home in the sink and not because they want to. I think it would be a good business venture. Right now there are places that do your laundry for you but I have to wonder if you could realize a cost saving (as a customer) by doing the wash yourself at a center versus paying someone else to do it for you. If the laundromat offered free wi-fi you could surf the net while your clothes wash and dry. Shelling out a couple hundred złoty all at once (not to mention the cost of energy) seems a lot harder than a few złoty a month to do laundry (not to mention being able to dry it).
