Money Talks

By guest contributor Greg Dugdale of Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. Havre, Montana

LIVING TRUSTS: FACT AND FICTION Living trusts are powerful estate planning tools that can help many people. Living trusts provide certain advantages that are not available with other estate planning devices. Living trusts are a way to manage and control property during life and distribute property at death. They are not, however, a cure-all. Disciples of the living trust abound today. They tout the advantages of living trusts with the fervor of a television evangelist. Let’s separate the facts about living trusts from some of the fiction that is being advocated.

First, it is necessary to understand the nature of a living trust. Technically, living trusts are “revocable inter vivos” trusts. If a trust is “revocable,” the person who establishes the trust can change all or any part of the trust, so long as that person is competent. “Inter vivos” is Latin for “during life.” At death, the living trust becomes irrevocable. Assets owned by living trusts generally are not included as part of the probate process at death. Probate is the court proceeding by which a deceased person’s assets are gathered and distributed to his or her beneficiaries.

Fact or fiction, avoiding probate is always desirable? In a strict sense, this is fiction. Probate can be an expensive and time consuming process.

However, many states have adopted the modern Uniform Probate Code that substantially streamlines the process. Also, there are some situations in which a probate proceeding may be desirable.

Fact or fiction, living trusts always save money during administration of the estate? By avoiding the probate court, living trusts may save on the associated attorney fees and court costs. However, there are still income and estate tax returns to file and legal, administrative and asset transfer work to do. This claim is not fiction, although it is hyperbole.

Fact or fiction, living trusts save on estate taxes? Fiction. Living trusts do not necessarily save federal estate taxes. Estate tax saving provisions can be incorporated into living trusts. However, those same provisions can be incorporated into a will. Therefore, living trusts do not offer any inherent tax saving advantages.

Fact or fiction, living trusts are private? This is largely fact. By avoiding the probate process, you can keep the distribution of your assets private.

Also, if the trust is funded (i.e. assets have been transferred into the trust before death) the size of the estate can be kept quiet. Note, however, that some transfers, notably real estate, are always public. Note also that the probate process in many states prohibits outsiders from learning what assets are part of the estate’s inventory.

Fact or fiction, a living trust can help in the event of incapacity? Fact, provided you have either placed assets in the trust before incapacity or a device exists to place your assets into the trust in the event of incapacity.

Another device, the durable power of attorney, can be used in some cases as a less expensive alternative to the living trust when planning for incapacity.

A trust is not appropriate for every individual. You should discuss the advantages of a trust with your estate planning attorney if: 1. you are the parent of minor children, 2. you desire privacy, 3. you own real property, 4. your estate is in excess of the applicable exclusion amount, and 5. you wish to avoid probate.

The living trust is an important tool that provides many advantages.

Living trusts are not, and never have been, a panacea. It remains important to work with an experienced estate planning attorney and evaluate all alternatives before adopting an estate planning strategy.

A Letter Home

Dear Dad,

After 42 years, I made a small payment on a debt which I incurred one winter’s day when I was 12. Perhaps you’ve forgotten about it, but I haven’t and here is how I remember that Saturday in January.

Both my brothers skied, but neither shared my insatiable passion for the sport, so you and I were the only ones in the car on the two hour drive to Antelope Butte Ski Area. Even though we weren’t calving yet, I know there were better ways for you to spend a Saturday, but while I skied, you patiently waited in the lodge. (Using the term “lodge” makes it sound like it was a mammoth log structure with a huge rock fireplace and picture window overlooking the slopes. In reality, in 1969 Antelope Butte’s lodge was the three-stall garage for the snow-cats which doubled as a warming shed and snack bar.) As usual, I skied all day, never stopping for lunch. When the T-bar lift closed at 4:00pm, I stuffed my gear in the station wagon, plopped in the front seat and drifted in and out of sleep as we rattled down the mountain. Since I was almost a teenager, I’m certain I added nothing to the conversation on the entire two hour drive home to the ranch…certainly no mention of gratitude.

Years later, when I became a dad and felt the conflict between family, time and money, I’ve often thought back to that Saturday when, without hesitation or qualification, you gave me 10 hours of your time. King David explains in 2 Samuel 24:24 he will not offer a sacrifice “which costs me nothing” and because we can always make more money, but can never make more time, giving one’s time is the biggest sacrifice a father can make. This debt of one’s time can be paid both backward and forward and two weeks ago, I had the chance to pay that Saturday forward.

Druann and I, plus four of our running friends had just completed a 12 mile, daybreak run along the rims in Billings. It was a great morning and we just walked in the house when Druann’s cell phone rang. “Mom, I’m in a jam.” Meagan frantically began. “My sitter is sick today, Michelle is busy moving back to the base, Tim is in Virginia for two more weeks, we admitted six new patients at work and I can find no one to watch all five kids this afternoon.”

Druann listened quietly before saying “I’ll call you back.” She looked at me and explained our daughter’s phone call. “Great Falls is three hours away, so we could be there by noon when Clara and Mae get home from school. What do you think?”

“Well, Meagan wouldn’t have called unless she was truly in a jam,” I offered as I thought back to that Saturday 42 winters ago. “I am not on-call this weekend and I don’t have to be at my speaking engagement in Columbus until tomorrow at 4:00. Let’s go.” In twenty-two minutes we showered, packed a bag, ate a banana and hit the road.

So Dad, the ten hours you gave me has now been paid forward to Tim, Meagan and their five mini-Kimmels. I expect all seven will pay those same ten hours forward or backward when the opportunity presents itself, so the pyramid of giving of one’s time is growing. See what you started?

Happy Father’s Day, from your grateful son, Kray
