It's not that easy. Only the assets obtained after the marriage belongs to the couple. On the other side - even if your wife will explicitly exclude you on the will you still can claim "a compulsory portion of inheritance" ... Read More

Many businesses have potential if you're creative. Poland is heavily regulated country so you may start from hiring a lawyer - to learn about permits. I'll look for a niche. First study the current offerings. If I'm correct they are ... Read More

I sense some frustration in your post. It's not easy, but possible. Find a friend who knows English and ask to be translator for you. If you don't have friends - hire someone. The labor in Poland is cheap. You can find personal assistant ... Read More
