In this video, we examine several estate planning structures that retirees often choose with the best intentions — but that can create unexpected problems involving creditors, divorce, Medicaid eligibility, taxes, probate, family disputes, and loss of financial control.
You’ll learn:
• Why adding an adult child to your home deed can create unexpected legal and financial exposure
• How joint bank accounts can affect your retirement savings and inheritance plans
• Why an unfunded revocable living trust may not accomplish what you expect
• How creditor and divorce issues can affect jointly owned assets
• Why Medicaid planning requires careful attention to asset transfers and timing
• How annuities can create liquidity and inflation concerns when too much retirement money is committed
• Why estate planning needs to be reviewed and maintained over time
• What questions you should ask before changing ownership of your assets
Your estate plan should reflect your actual goals — protecting your home, preserving your savings, and transferring your assets according to your wishes.
