#32. These estate planning tips can save you big time. But only if you plan ahead.
In this episode, Trishul and Aaron try to introduce all the nuance and complexity behind estate planning. They explain how the step-up in basis on taxable accounts can be better for heirs than inheriting a Traditional IRA. They then discuss wills and trusts, both revocable and irrevocable. Then there are community property states vs. separate property states. Don't forget the estate tax exemption, the annual gift tax exemption, and the lifetime gift tax exemption. Yikes! There are so many little caveats that there is no universal estate planning recommendation, other than that you need to plan ahead because it'll be too late after you pass away.
