The 2010 Estate Tax Relief Act Doesn’t Negate the Importance of the Bypass Trust
Posted: Jan 30, 2011 |Comments: 0

]]>
One purpose of the bypass trust is to use the first-to-die spouse’s personal estate tax exemption to save part of his estate from paying estate taxes since his tax exemption would be lost if all his holding were passed to the surviving spouse. At her (the second spouse to die) death, only her personal estate tax exemption would be available to shelter some of her estate for the benefit of heirs.
But now, the 2010 Tax Relief allows her to use her deceased husband’s personal estate tax exemption at her death too. This option, though doesn’t wipe out the importance of setting up a bypass trust. Here’s why….
If you have an estate worth more than a few million, then you could be subject to 35% estate taxes on the amount over the estate tax exemption. The exemption was set to revert to only million – which isn’t much these days – but the new tax relief act increased it to million. More than that, it allows the second-spouse-to die to use not only her own million exemption, but also whatever her late husband didn’t use of his exemption.
So if you have less than about million in estate holdings should you forget about a bypass trust? No – because the new law is good for only 2011 and 2012 and the bypass trust has other benefits.
The additional tax benefit of the bypass trust is that holdings that it shelters will continue to grow while the second-to-die remains alive. Those holdings are permanently outside the estate taxation at the time of her death. That’s an important tax-sheltering purpose.
The enduring benefit of a bypass trust is to ensure that the first-to-die spouse’s property will be disposed of according to his wishes, even if the surviving spouse remarries or chooses to adopt a different estate plan for the surviving spouse’s assets. Holding his assets in a trust protects them from any changes that his surviving spouse may make to them.
As an example, a bypass trust would assure the deceased husband that his children from a previous marriage will indeed receive what he has put aside from him.
*How does the bypass trust work?
Generally, an A/B living trust is created while both spouses are alive. They contribute to it over time. When the first spouse dies, a stated portion of it goes into the B trust (i.e. the bypass trust). The rest goes into the A trust the surviving spouse will use for her wishes until she dies. The bypass trust receives the other portion of the A/B trust’s property in a way that minimizes estate taxation and fulfills other purposes for which it is created. Its property is necessarily prevented from being accessible to the surviving spouse during her life.
The bypass trust also takes advantage of a stepped-up basis where the value of the property transferred to the successors of the trust is said to be the fair market value at the time of the transfer at death. This generally lowers any capital gains taxes the children must pay when they eventually sell their inherited property.

Safety of Women’s ‘Abuse Excuse’ Is the Greater Good Feminazism Uses to ‘Divide and Conquer’
Tyrannies take hold in by promoting a commendable-sounding ‘greater good’. State-enforced implementation of that greater good establishes the tyranny. Feminism’s promotion of the safety of women through the ‘abuse excuse’ is its ‘greater good’ that legally divides the sexes. It privileges women by denying men their constitutional rights. That’s why state-forced feminism is best characterized as feminazism for the tyranny it creates.

Life Insurance Trust
Posted: Oct 29, 2008 |Comments: 0

]]>
A Life Insurance Trust is simply a document that acts like a very private and secure box into which you place your life insurance policy. Did you know that upon your death the life insurance proceeds will be included in your Estate?
The advantages of setting up a Life Insurance Trust are:
1. Reduces your estate tax
2. Controls the pay out to beneficiaries
3. Use an independent trustee
4. Provides for spouse and children
5. Private document and it is not a public record instrument
6. Upon your death, no lengthy and expensive probate
7. Can designate all beneficiaries and determine distribution
8. Keeps disgruntled and disinherited heirs away from your assets
For example, if you have property, cash and investments worth million and you also have a life insurance policy that will pay your children million. What happened is upon your death, the Internal Revenue Service will include the amount of one million in your Federal Estate Tax return.
Upon creating the Life Insurance Trust, your insurance policy becomes an asset of your trust. The premium to be paid upon your death would be designated as “gifts”. Since you are allowed to give gifts of up to ,000 per year, per person non-taxable to whomever you wish. The premiums would be divided up in many ,000 gifts each year for each of whomever you designate, children, spouse, family member or relative.
By creating the Life Insurance Trust and placing your life insurance policy in the trust, your policy would be the asset of the trust; therefore, the life insurance proceeds would be taken out of your estate completely. Another advantage of setting up the Life Insurance Trust is that upon your death, the proceeds of the life insurance would then go tax free to your children and you could also provide for your spouse and other family members as well.
There are several types of Trusts such as Revocable Living Trust, Children Trust, Simple Trust, Complex Trust and Grantor Trust. Based on your individual situation and circumstances, we help you create the proper structure and choose the best comprehensive estate planning that can minimize your taxes and help your children.

Beneficiary-Controlled Trusts
Posted: Jun 18, 2010 |Comments: 0

]]>
Estate planners use trusts to protect beneficiaries from their inability, their disability, their creditors and their predators. Included under “creditors” are the IRS and divorced spouses. Most traditional trusts distribute the assets when the beneficiary reaches a certain age or ages, with the last distribution terminating the trust.
More sophisticated estate planners generally create multi-generational dynasty trusts for their clients’ descendants that are (1) estate tax protected, (2) creditor protected and (3) divorce protected – while at the same time allowing the primary beneficiary to control the trust as a co-trustee. In essence, the primary beneficiary has nearly all the rights, benefits and control over the trust property that a person would have with outright ownership – in addition to tax, creditor and divorce protection not available with outright ownership. Such trusts are sometimes referred to as “beneficiary-controlled” trusts. Following are the design features of the typical beneficiary-controlled trust:
The donor (i.e., parent or grandparent) is the grantor of the Trust.
The child and his/her descendants are the beneficiaries of the Trust. However, the child is the “primary” beneficiary of the Trust during his/her lifetime and, therefore, the child’s needs take priority over the needs of his/her descendants.
The Trust has two trustees – the primary beneficiary (upon attaining the age of projected maturity) and an independent trustee. The independent trustee can be the primary beneficiary’s friend, trusted advisor or a bank.
The primary beneficiary has the power to remove and replace the independent trustee from time to time, thereby maintaining the beneficiary controlled feature of this trust design, so long as the replacement trustee is not a “related or subordinate party” as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 672(c).
The trustees can distribute to the primary beneficiary (and his/her descendants) income and principal as needed for health, education, maintenance and support.
The trust agreement also allows the trustees to acquire assets for the primary beneficiary’s use and enjoyment (without remuneration) such as vacation homes, art work, jewelry, etc. The trustee could also invest in a business that the beneficiaries can be employed by.
The primary beneficiary can be given a broad non-general power to appoint the trust property during life and/or at death in favor of anyone other than the primary beneficiary, his/her creditors, his/her estate, or the creditors of his/her estate. Thus, the primary beneficiary can “re-write” the trust for future generations.
At the primary beneficiary’s death, the assets remaining in trust pass to his/her children (i.e., the grantor’s grandchildren), in equal shares, but in further trust. At that time, the grandchild becomes the primary beneficiary of his/her separate trust, which now benefits the grandchild and the grandchild’s descendants. To the extent of the grantor’s generation skipping tax exemption (which is the same as the estate tax exemption) plus the future appreciation thereon, there would be no estate taxes due.
Many beneficiary-controlled trusts are designed as generation-skipping trusts. In 1986, Congress (recognizing that the IRS was losing billions in estate taxes) attempted to thwart generation-skipping trusts by creating the “generation -skipping transfer tax” (GSTT). The GSTT is imposed on the transfer of assets to individuals who are more than one generation younger than the transferor (i.e., grandchildren and great grandchildren). This includes the transfer of assets that are given outright or in trust. The GSTT is in addition to the Federal estate and gift tax, and is equal to the maximum estate tax rate. Fortunately, Congress did include a significant exemption to the GSTT. The GSTT exemption is equal to the estate tax exemption. While there is a present lapse in the estate and generation-skipping transfer taxes, it’s likely that Congress will reinstate both taxes (perhaps even retroactively) some time during 2010. If not, on January 1, 2011, the estate tax exemption (which was .5 million in 2009) becomes million, and the top estate tax rate (which was 45% in 2009) becomes 55%.
Although the GSTT exemption is the same as the estate tax exemption, tax-free gifts to a generation-skipping trust are still limited to the ,000 annual gift tax exclusion (,000 for a married couple); and the million lifetime gift tax exemption ( million for a married couple). If the GSTT exemption is allocated to a generation-skipping trust, the trust, including all appreciation, is entirely exempt from the GSTT for its entire term. Lifetime transfers to most generation-skipping trusts result in the automatic allocation of the grantor’s remaining GSTT exemption, unless a gift tax return (Form 709) is timely filed to elect out of the allocation.
As a general rule, the earlier the trust is created in the life cycle of an asset or investment, the greater the benefits in tax savings. Creating a beneficiary-controlled trust early on also enables the donor to place the initial seed money for funding a favorable business or investment opportunity into a trust rather than have the donee own it. Nowhere is this opportunity shifting more productive than with new ventures or startup businesses.
The beneficiary-controlled trust is gaining popularity among estate planners. Beneficiary-controlled trusts can be created at the grantor’s death as part of the donor’s living trust, or can be used in irrevocable trusts, including irrevocable life insurance trusts. But the benefits of creditor protection and estate tax savings are only available if someone else, such as a parent or grandparent, sets up the trust. In short, a beneficiary-controlled trust should be considered whenever it is worthwhile to protect beneficiaries from creditors, divorcing spouses and estate taxes.

Use of a Discretionary Trust for Asset Protection Offshore
Posted: Jul 10, 2010 |Comments: 0

]]>
Most jurisdictions have some variation of what in British and Canadian law is called a discretionary trust. In Australia, for example, it is referred to as a family trust. Although the precise term may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction we will use the term discretionary trust to describe a legal vehicle designed to provide trustees with extensive latitude in which beneficiaries will receive payments and how much they will receive. There may be any number of reasons why a person will set up a trust in this manner. However, a discretionary trust provides a degree of asset protection for passing wealth from generation to generation which is not found in many other vehicles. Combining features of a discretionary trust with other offshore asset protection vehicles can be an extremely effective way of reducing the tax consequences of inheritance. It can also be an effective means of avoiding the attacks of unscrupulous lawyers searching for “deep pockets” in a law suit or, for that matter, anyone looking to scam or steal from ones heirs.
Trusts in General
A trust is a legal vehicle typically set up so that an individual may pass inheritance to his or her heirs without probate and with reduced tax consequences. There are many forms of trusts. Depending upon jurisdiction the creator of the trust is called a settler, trustor, grantor, donor or creator and those who will receive assets of the trust are beneficiaries. An individual, company (such as a bank), or other persons with experience in this matter are trustees. Trustees are charged with the obligation of carrying out the terms of the trust, typically after the settler has died although there are various forms of living trusts wherein the trust may function while the settler is still alive. A trust can be defined in many ways an in the event of substantial wealth can be multigenerational. The prime reasons for setting up a trust are generally to care for the needs of ones heirs and to reduce the tax consequences of passing money to the next generation or generations.
Offshore Asset Protection and Privacy Solutions
Many choose to look offshore from their nation of birth for a degree of privacy and protection of their hard earned assets that is not available in their homeland. It may be a legal system that encourages “fishing expeditions” by unscrupulous lawyers or an excessively “transparent” system that lays ones assets out for the world to see. There are times when moving assets offshore to a tax advantaged location can very, legally reduce the tax consequences of earnings, holding property, and the like.
Commonly used offshore solutions include offshore banking, offshore business formation, an international business corporation for doing business or simply holding assets, various types of foundations, and trusts. Depending upon the needs of the individual, family, or company a single offshore vehicle may be the “offshore solution” or a mixture of vehicles, one owning the other will be advisable. The point of these measures is typically to place ones assets in less intrusive and more tax advantages jurisdictions. Most of these jurisdictions have laws that specifically shield ones assets from public view. An individual may form an offshore international business corporation and not have his or her name listed in any public document or registry. He or she will then bank through the corporation, use a debit card or credit card assigned to the corporation and not have any of his or her monetary dealings exposed to the public eye.
Similarly one can form a foundation such as a Panama Private Interest Foundation which in turn holds the corporation, and therefore the bank account, as an asset. The beneficiary of the corporation is not an owner and can be changed upon the death of the first beneficiary so that his or her heirs become beneficiaries with no tax consequences.
A trust will function in much the same way by passing assets to heirs. The use of discretionary trust, however, will provide an extra layer of protection from unwarranted intrusion, taxation, and the like.
A Discretionary Trust
As with all trusts a discretionary trust is governed by a trust document. In the case of discretionary trust the creator of the trust will have left instructions to the trustees for administration of the trust. However, the instructions will typically be rather general or non-specific. The indeterminate wording of a discretionary trust document makes this a highly flexible vehicle and can provide for excellent asset protection of trust assets and benefits to beneficiaries. An advantage is that it is not difficult to change benefits according to current circumstances. Benefits are not set in stone. In addition, if a beneficiary owes money or is being sued with the possible outcome that his or her assets may be subject to confiscation the discretionary trust provides a level of protection. If the amount and nature of benefits that the beneficiary might, or might not, receive are unclear then it can be very difficult to attach assets of the trust. There is no clear interest to which to attach a clear liability.
Typically in a discretionary trust the trustees are guided by a memorandum written by the creator of the trust. However, the memorandum most commonly has no legal status. This, again, provides a level of asset protection if anyone comes looking to attach a liability to assets of the trust.
Practical Uses of a Discretionary Trust with Other Asset Protection Vehicles
A practical example of the use of a trust, discretionary or otherwise, goes like this. An individual sets up a trust in the country of New Zealand. He or she then forms a Panama private interest foundation as an asset of the trust. The foundation will hold various assets which could include an offshore business such as a New Zealand Offshore Financial Company or an international business corporation in any of several countries. The foundation could hold an offshore bank account in Belize, for example. In each instance the offshore vehicle used will typically be set up to be owned by the “parent” so that when a beneficiary of the trust uses a white label debit card from the company or offshore bank it will be in the name of the company or bank. The names of foundation beneficiaries, bank account beneficiaries, and the like will not in any public document. At the root of this arrangement will be a very flexible trust arrangement, administered by those whom the trust creator chooses, taking care of beneficiaries in a most tax advantaged and private manner, away from the prying eyes.
NOTE: As a practical matter there are many offshore jurisdictions and laws change from time to time. Please consider the above material to be a useful but general review of the opportunities offered by mixing a discretionary trust with other offshore asset protection vehicles. To do the job right the individual will need to seek counsel that currently deals with such issues across national borders and has no vested interest in any particular solution but will advise for the benefit of his or her client.

What Makes an Offshore Investment in Olive Trees Successful?
A number of factors come together to make an offshore investment in olive oil attractive. There is steadily increasing consumption of oil and a limit to just how much the traditional suppliers can produce. As the export of olive oil requires growing olives, processing olives, exporting olives, and distributing olives there is a lot of room for investment.

The Need to Increase Olive Oil Production Can Lead to Offshore Investment Profits
Olive oil consumption is outstripping supply. The traditional exporters of olive oil are Spain, Italy,and Greece who make up 70% of the world’s supply. They are simply not able to cope with the steadily increasing world wide demand. Thus offshore investors are looking at counties like Algeria where the climate and soil are ideal for growing olives.

Increasing Olive Oil Consumption
Countries as diverse as the UK and India are starting to use olive oil for cooking and with salads and sauces. This is not a trifling occurrence as it portends the development of a business worth billions of dollars as the market for olive oil moves out of the Mediterranean Basin into the rest of the world. A useful aspect of this for the investor is that more land needs to be cultivated and supply chains set up to bring olive oil to New Delhi, Brighton, and Tokyo.

DO I NEED A TRUST??
By: Daniela Lungu
Most people when faced with this question, or whether they have an “estate” get a blank look in their eyes, and say no, but would be surprised to learn that they do have an estate and would benefit from this important service.
General Rule: If you have an estate valued at over 0,000 you should have a trust.
“Estate” Includes:
Value of all Real Property Interests Time Shares Boats, Cars, Other Personal Recreational Vehicles Business interests including partnerships, sole proprietorships, corporations, LLP and LLC interests Value of all Brokerage, Corporate Stocks, Corporate Bonds, Mutual Funds, Treasury Bills, and Savings Bonds Retirement Assets including: IRA, Keogh, 401(k), 403(b)Qualified Plan, Employer Plan, Deferred Comp, Annuity, Pension Plan, Roth IRA, Value of all Insurance Policies – Whole and Term Amounts in Checking, Savings, CD’s, Money Market Accounts Value of Notes and Deeds of Trust All other personal property including clothing, furnishings and other household goods.
Reasons for Planning:
Avoiding probate Minimizing estate taxes Self-directed distribution of wealth to heirs Proactive management of health and assets in the event of incapacity.
If you have considered any form of planning for the future, now is the time to speak with an Estate Planning Attorney to incorporate a Living Trust into your plan. Living Trusts allow you to control the transfer of your property and assets to your intended beneficiaries, assist in planning with significant tax advantages, and more. Using a properly prepared and funded Living Trust ensures that your beneficiaries can avoid the unpleasant and lengthy task of probate, which often fractures family relationships.
The preceding should not be considered tax or legal advice. Please consult with your financial and legal advisors for information appropriate to your specific circumstances.

The Different Types of Estate Trusts
Posted: May 07, 2009 |Comments: 0

]]>
When you make the choice to begin planning the allocation of your assets for after you pass or in the event of an accident, there is no uncertainty that the question of trusts will come into play. The reason for this is because trusts provide numerous tax breaks, asset protection and they give the trustee, the person of your choice, total control (who may or may not be the same person as the beneficiary).
The most often employed trust is best-known as a testamentary trust. With the conditions defined in the will, the assets will be arranged into the trust after the grantor’s departure. For a really long time now, this method has been very common when it comes to disposing of assets in order to keep them protected. It’s not always the case, but one person normally takes the titles of both beneficiary and trustee.
Another form of trust, acknowledged as a living trust, is established while you are still alive with the assets being shifted into the trust after death. The tax benefits that follow along with utilizing living trusts makes it less difficult on the weeping family members after the grantor’s demise, which is why it is promptly growing into a common method for estate planning. Estate trusts are instruments utilized mainly for protecting the assets of your family and providing them with financial security – and that’s how they should be employed. It’s likewise a tool to help subside the possible tax burdens. If you want to know the best way to approach creating trusts, a well-qualified professional can assist you with this, and assure that you reap the utmost tax benefits.

Challenged Child – Special Needs Children Need A Special Needs Trust
Posted: Jan 26, 2010 |Comments: 0

]]>
How to Provide for the Special Needs Child. Life for the parent of a Special Needs child often involves interaction with medical, therapeutic, pharmaceutical and educational specialists. Most parents find out to adapt and to match this service and supervision of their Special Needs Child among the rest of their lives.Challenged Child
As the child grows older, the problem faced by the parent change. Fortunately, most folks adapt and dealing with the problem is eased by experience, knowing ‘what works’ for the present precise child. Every parent of an autistic or otherwise physically, emotionally or mentally challenged child worries that when the parent is gone, the child may become a ward of the state, possibly institutionalized or otherwise marginalized from society and robbed of the opportunity for a safe and enjoyable life. Challenged Child
That is why with help and thoughtful consideration, it’s possible to create a financial and legal safety net that protects the Special Needs Child, the family as a whole, and the flow of cash benefits paid by the state for the disability. Planning in Advance is the Key. If planning is done incorrectly, it can cost the Special Needs Child the benefits he or she is receiving from the state agency that pays the disability payment monthly. That’s because an inheritance – received in the wrong way – can be interpreted by state officials as ‘disqualifying’ the child from further benefits. That is why planning must be careful, precise and undertaken with care. Challenged Child
The Special Needs Trust. A trust executed by the parents of a Special Needs Child (whether a minor of an adult) needs to be different than that normally used in less complicated situations. The trust used in this case will be what’s called a ‘Special Needs Trust’. This is different from the Living Trust you’ll need for basic estate planning. Challenged Child
The family’s Living Trust will typically provide for any other siblings or grandchildren whereas the Special Needs Trust will have the Special Needs Child as its only beneficiary. A Special Needs Trust is typically irrevocable, so that it’s ‘outside the Taxable Estate’ and may not be changed after you’re gone to suit the whims of those who remain. It typically is drafted so that the benefits of the Trust do not replace or duplicate any disability income benefits paid by a government agency. Challenged Child
It is easy for the unwary to trigger a disqualification of government benefits, so the trust must be precisely drafted so the actions of the trustee will not interfere with the state’s purpose and will not unintentionally cause the Special Needs Child to lose his or her benefits. The Special Needs Trust should be drafted by a licensed attorney. Don’t let your love ones suffer anymore! Lead them out through Challenged Child program now!

Estate Planning – Complicacies of Trust
Posted: Nov 02, 2009 |Comments: 0

]]>
Making a living trust involves important paper works. Sometimes it could be new deed and at others special languages that is acceptable by the court of law. Addressing complicacies of document setting and addressing its tediousness is the challenge before the estate planning attorney.
Despite the multiplication in numerical numbers of the estate panning attorney today everyone is not equally appreciated in the client circle or in the industry. Reasons for such situation is that many of the attorneys are not as conversant with the problems as well as the goals and objectives set up by their clients. Ignorance of the end objective often leads them into drafting something that is not commensurate to the desire of their client.
Holding property in a trust is often considered as complex proposition by many including the probate attorney whose basic aim would be to dispense with the necessity of probate of the will. Laws vary from state to state and accordingly the requirements of the clients seeking planning of their estate management process shall also vary widely. Necessities very often are signing a new deed so that it could be established that the owner now holds the house as trustee of the living trust he or she has formed. Legal requirements in some of the states could be special language use in the document that would serve to escape income tax imposition under the law of the land.
Despite the earnestness and dedication of the trust planning attorney the paper works could be tedious and tiresome. Good news for most of the people is that hassles are fewer in comparison these days since most of the living trusts have common features.
Avoiding probate is one of the basic objectives of all living trust. Process of such avoidance would depend on the particular law of the land. For instance the process in Southern California following the law of the land in California could be different from New York or Arizona states. Common feature of all these is that most of the tasks can be accomplished in a few weeks by an efficient and experienced attorney dealing with estate management.

Understanding How the Family Trust Works
Posted: Dec 03, 2010 |
]]>
If managing your assets the right legal way is your concern, you may consider a trust arrangement. A useful form of this oft-used estate-planning device is the family trust. Known more commonly as the living trust, this arrangement is simple and beneficial for all the parties involved.
Here is a brief overview of how these trusts function, as well as their advantages.
In most cases, these trust come of use to protect and distribute family property. An individual, or individuals, transfer the title of their assets to the trust. The legal term for these individual(s) is grantor. However, they are also referred to as trustor, creator, settler, and such other names.
Only after the death of the grantor, the management of the trust property passes on to the successor trustee. The selection of this trustee is also as per the dictates of the grantor. Only in one circumstance does the successor trustee take over the responsibilities of managing the trust. This is if the grantor is mentally incapacitated.
The beneficiaries of the family trust legal are usually other members of the family. In this arrangement, the grantor, or the trustee, decides on the percentage provided to a particular beneficiary. In case the beneficiary is a minor, the grantor has the responsibility to control and manage their portion of the assets.
However, one thing to keep in mind is to avail legal help from a professional when you are planning such a trust. Only a competent estate-planning lawyer can help you understand the legal implications when coming up with the trust document. The do-it-yourself may sound to be too good to be true – the problem is, it often is so!
If you are still thinking – why opt for a family trust, here are the reasons.
It helps avoid the probate process (which is pretty lengthy and expensive)
It helps maximize tax exemptions
It helps avoid public disclosure of property details after death of grantor
It helps manage assets belonging to a minor
It helps manage assets if the grantor is left incapacitated
The simplicity of the family trust and its various benefits give it an edge over others.

Con Man’s Version of the Living Trust?–little Known Secrets
Eat well, stay fit, die anyway. This is the reality you must face when contemplating a living trust.
Important, if you are contemplating this form of legal instrument: the good, the bad, the needed, and the unneeded of the Intro Vivos Trust, must be considered.
Be careful of the differences.
Have you been approached by a telemarketing trust-hustler, an at-your-doorstep quick-buck con man, or been intrigued by an internet ad on this subject? If so, hold up. Slow down. Wait. There are many factors to consider before committing all of your assets to one of these supposed ease-of-estate-conveyance instruments, particularly when offered by one of the above described purveyors.
Disadvantages:
> Unless your assets exceed ,000,000 there are no tax advantages. Tax advantages don’t kick in significantly until your assets rise above ,500,000.
> If you are about to apply for Medicaid, you can incur severe penalties if your application is within 5 years of the Trust’s establishment.
> Your home, if placed in the Trust, is no longer exempt from the estate tax (in most states), presumably one of the protections you sought when setting up a trust in the first place.
> You give away a lot of personal information when you set one up. So, extra, intensive scrutiny must be focused on the character, reputation, and standing of the people with whom you are dealing.
Don’t forget, any dropped item will first strike your toes.
> The expense, often exorbitant.
These are facts the con man will not voluntarily tell you. A goldfish has a memory capacity of 3 seconds. This is the hope the con man is pursuing as he tries to rush his plan past you, especially if you’ve reached the age where you consider Happy Hour to be time for a nap. There are, however, some plusses.
Advantages:
> Orderliness. The first thing to know about a survival situation is to not get into a survival situation. A trust helps you avoid such a fate.
> Speed in distribution of assets after your demise. You bypass the long, cumbersome probate process (in most states). If you have illusions of competence, then now, before your demise, is the time to fan that flame.
> Clean-cut distribution of proceeds between multiple beneficiaries of your estate. This is a big advantage over probate, where the executor must repeatedly get court approval for so many of the estate-settlement expenses.
> Less squabbling. Reduced tension. Less outright feuding between your siblings or other beneficiaries. When you’re all stressed out over this and have no one left to choke, a feeling of peace and tranquility will overtake you with the acquisition of a living trust.
> A great tool for protecting yourself against identity theft. It disrupts the view of any con man lurking in the bushes, planning an identity theft attack on you. Enables you to out-con the identity theft con man by confusing his vision of your estate.
If–oh, that little 2-letter word that means so much–you decide to go the trust route, set one up, it behooves you to find the proper party to take on this task for you. This would mean no telemarketers, high-pressure salesmen, no internet “Trust Specialists.” Don’t try to ski uphill. Best to stay in your own neighborhood. Level ground. There are probably many reputable financial planners nearby, as well as highly specialized trust attorneys. Find them. Use one.
We’re aware that just going through life with your financial assets always, seemingly, in jeopardy, feels like being hit repeatedly in the head with a hammer–and it would feel so good if it stopped. Your attempt to make this euphoric state come to pass, however, must be a cautious undertaking, indeed.
The Con Man‘s Blog, and first two chapters of Jack Payne’s legal thriller book, Six Hours Past Thursday, are now available online. Both readable for free. You are invited. legalthriller.blogspot.com/
