Making my Estate Plan

Here are some considerations regarding estate planning: 

1.  Duties of the Personal Representative; 

2.  How to own my bank accounts; 

3.  Why a will is often not the best plan; 

4.  How is the estate taxed?

5.  How to administer collections; 

6.  Why have an updated will? 

I have created an Estate Planning Series that sets out income tax, financial and personal objectives:

Estate Planning Series Part 1:  Consider Income Tax, Financial and Personal Objectives in today's no estate tax for the 99% estate planning environment 

Estate Planning Series Part 2: What is portability for estate planning and why do I need it? 

Estate Planning Series Part 3: Why should I consider a Bypass Trust? 

Estate Planning Series Part 4:  It's about the Income Tax Now

Estate Planning Series Part 5:  The Role of Life Insurance

Estate Planning Series Part 6:  Life Insurance Trusts in Wyoming 

Estate Planning Series Part 7:  What about retirement plan benefits? 

Estate Planning Series Part 8: The SECURE Act of 2019 and retirement plan beneficiaries

Estate Planning Series Part 9:  Changes in the way title to property should be designated
