We'll see. I have significant net worth (not a lot, but enough to tempt somebody), and an ex who thinks the world -especially me- owes her everything she needs or wants, and I don't trust her to not try to cheat my daughter (her daughter) out of some or a major part of her inheritance. My daughter is married too - happily, but that can change too, so I want my estate, to go to her, all of it, with no hiccups and I know there will be tax implications, so that needs to be taken into account (some things in a trust, some things not).
I don't think there will be problems and the process should be simple, but when it comes to $$$$$$$ you get people coming out of the woodwork trying to get some of it, and I want it bulletproof. I also want my real estate to be protected from lawsuits, etc.
Trusts are a great way to handle that. They're relatively bulletproof and there is no ambiguity as to your intent. Anyway, get a money guy and a lawyer and listen to them.
