S3 Why A Trust?

Published on: 25th September, 2024

Why a Trust? There are soooo many reasons you should consider having a trust for your personal benefit, to avoid probate, to protect your assets, to protect your spendthrift kids, to protect your assets from going to a new spouse, to protect your surviving spouse from not being able to manage the investments, etc. You get the point. You don't need multiple millions of dollars to benefit from a trust. You are the only one responsible for your planning: Investment / Tax / Estate Planning / Asset Protection. The only way you are going to accomplish anything is to take action. One action which I know you will use - your estate plan. 50% of all individuals do not have an estate plan. Will you inadvertently disinherit your children? With a trust you can guarantee you will NOT disinherit your kids. Unfortunately, kids are being disinherited more and more by accident. If you are a "do-it yourself" kinda person this is a must listen. Your low cost 1-800 financial firm could very easily cost your family your entire 401(k). Let that sink in.

Did you name your spouse as the primary beneficiary on your life Insurance policy? Bet you did.... this could be one of the biggest financial mistakes you make.
