My father in- law had a trust set up. He sold his home before he went into a nursing home. Divided the money for the children. No taxes for the kids. Gave everything away before his death. He died poor, as he wanted it that way. All belongings were given to the children. No fights, no arguments. Everyone was happy.

I cannot believe that it was that simple! What a smart man...

I don't know how happy I would be as a Medicaid nursing home patient. Obviously, he would have had to anticipate nursing home placement and gift the majority of his assets 5 yrs in advance. Is that what happened? Where did your fil live for at least the 5 yrs after he sold his home?

You would never believe what I have been through...in the process of my parents aging problems and illness. My father in law. who was a recent widower, got involved with a crooked housekeeper who married him and wanted all he had and tried to poison him with food. While all that was going on my daughter was involved with a bad head on collision and later my husband had Parkinson and died. Believe me it pays to be learning before things start happening. So I now have a revocable trust...for my family, so learn all you can. BTW, we won over the crooked house keeper even though she had spent a lot of his money. The trust is for my daughter who has a brain injury and the other daughter will have to care for her after I die. Do like this man says and don't put so many demands in the will as things change daily. Put it in the Trust and keep it simple.

Very informative! I definitely need to set up a trust, in-fact I remember after inheriting a bulk when my dad died in 2018 I had no clue what to do with the funds. Because generally what would come to mind is how to invest in something long term with guaranteed returns. Fast-forward to now, I did find a way to mitigate the best areas of in vestments and I’m reaping tremendous benefits.

[@weicaihon]

I had a will dispute with siblings for years, as soon as it was settled I thought in vestment right away. It’s possible to achieve outstanding growth in port folio diversification in a short period of time as long as you stay consistent and do things different from the vast majority.

[@kevincooper0]

Yeah true! in vesting in good company stocks is a great idea and a good tra ding technique or system put in place would guarantee you many days of success.

The easiest way is to fund your going into the twilight. So buy a prepaid funeral insurance plan as up to a certain amount medicaid will allow. Get it all set up and tell people where the policy is. Pick out all the stuff, coffin, music, transport...... That will be a big help. Also is have the cash find some way to fund them traveling to your funeral and stay at hotel. Maybe an insurance policy in one of the trusted childrens name they cash in to fund everyones trip. Medicaid does a five year look back policy. There is a trust that protects your money. Look into it. Is a special one. So can give before five years gifts of up to 16,000 per year to person with no gift tax. Easier to give it up front unless use special trust.

[@jackfrosty4674]

The way care works seem to be best in one of those homes where you start out with an apartment and then as get worse and worse go to the more help more expensive step until in nursing home and pass. Don't make them give up their life for you. They will be happier to see you and visit you more if they do not have the burden of putting life on hold to take care of you. 40 percent of caregivers die before patient. Better to use money so they are not stuck and a prisoner taking care of elderly for how many years? sometimes twenty.

My brother was the executor of his friend's will, and he said that probate was a complete nightmare. It all went well, but he had to file a stack of paperwork, etc. Probate, to clarify further, happens when there are assets with a title. Real Estate as mentioned, but even things like vehicles. If you are married, one of the simplest ways to avoid problems is to have these things in both people's names. The lawyer here can correct me if I'm wrong, but that should prevent all of those assets from going to probate. Everything would go to the surviving spouse. And they could keep them or distribute them according to their best judgement. And if it's a business, it can also be in the name of the spouse or a surviving business partner. So, if this scheme works for you, it's probably the easiest way to avoid probate. This might work extremely well for someone who doesn't have a lot of titled assets. Maybe a house and a couple of cars, etc.

[@jackieburch6875]

Not true if both names are not on the home then it goes to living heirs and not the surviving spouse we just found this out in North Carolina

Not a lawyer....with Real Estate, house for example it depends on how the deed is noted. Joint tenants in common vs. joint tenants with right of survivorship. Right of survivorship, will pass to the next surviving owner and bypass a Will (heirs) and/or probate. Joint tenants in common can be distributed to heirs and needs to go through probate court. My mother and I owned a house together, our deed was JTWOS. This avoided probate.

[@grandmajane2593]

@@TerryProthero The trouble with putting property and cars in spouse's name is if there is a seperation or divorce, One of the partners will demand half of the property or they will just abscond with it.

@@grandmajane2593 Yeah, that would be a possible downside. If your marriage isn't going so well, it might not be the best option. But if it is, it's a pretty simple way to go. That's the kind of thing that needs to be evaluated on a case by case basis. You need to realistically know who can be trusted and who can't be when making these plans.

Hello My dad left a will with an assigned Executor, whom was a lawyer friend for years. This Executor Was sick with MS The judge appointed him . It has been a year since my dad's death and I have no paperwork except for some. There are 3 beneficiaries which is me and 2 brothers my brothers are not of sound mind , and can not make decision...On top of that my dad's estate has 23 properties of which are divided into apartments. So we are talking about me managing tenants, repairs and maintenance such as grass cutting and trash removal. There are also real estate property management handling rental monies, and they are all insured. The estate pulls in about $9000-12000 a month. My brothers ( beneficiaries) will not sign nothing, as in the will we are granted one third each of the estate residual. In the will, it also states to sell all properties or beneficiary can keep prope red ty of sme one third value. Now in order to sell the titles must be cleared. There were judgements against some properties with violations. The Executor is now filing a petition to resign as he too I'll and the lawyer was his daughter straight out of law school with no experience, has caused one of my properties out of the city to be late on paying taxes. She is not communicative at all and has not paid my inheritance tax or $58,000 in judgements . The real estate is worth 3 million Can you give me some advice as she has been incompetent in many ways. I have many tenants in properties, and I don't want lawsuits, nor malpractice with the lawyer of which has already happened. My brothers are not of sound mind so they have been staring at the wall since birth. I am the hopeful executor to come,, but need a place to start

@@qt5160 You have my sympathies. Just follow the rules in the supplied paperwork they provide you.

A revocable trust worked for my husband and I. He passed from cancer. He signed quick claim for our home. Within a trust is a will and a living trust. This is something to consider. I got out trust from a place that has the and paid 175 dollars for it. Everything needs to be signed by a notary. Anyway, it worked perfectly. I don’t know why this has to be so complicated.

Some people have twenty people waiting to get something and two million in assets. Causes lots of problems.

Houston TX here......funny hearing your use our Lt Gov in your scenarios. This video makes so much sense and easier to understand wills vs trusts. You must be certified in Texas doing his legal stuff.
