Gifting

Chapter Chapter 9 in Plan Your Own Estate, 2013, pp 119-129 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract After I go through the whole discussion of what estate taxes a family might be facing, I often get this question: “What happens if I give my stuff away now instead of waiting until I die?” The answer isn’t as simple as you may think. My initial reply is, “Does making a gift move you toward your goals?” After all, once you give away dollars, they’re gone; you can’t take them back. If that isn’t a roadblock, what about the fact that gifting could create taxes instead of saving them? Read on.
