Benefits of a trust

I’m Miriam  Neff-with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY, and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, and we’re here to talk about money

M  Scripture tells us in Proverbs 13: 22 that  A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children.  Working diligently and saving provides surplus.  It’s biblical to pass that on to children and grandchildren.

V A popular tool to do just that is  the Revokable Living trust    It’s a legal entity  that holds assets with trusts to form the estate when a person dies.  Probate court costs can be avoided.  Trusts can achieve several goals. The trust owns assets held for the beneficiaries, and is managed by the trustee.

M   You might name charities, and your church as beneficiaries stating percent or set amounts to go to them.  Remember, you can tithe with your trust.  I’s a tool to honor God.
