Many high net worth families try to pass as much of their wealth as possible to loved ones, but they may worry how those assets are used. Certain trusts can help your estate distribute assets in a way that meets everyone's needs while helping to ensure the assets your heirs inherit aren't squandered.
One such trust is a spendthrift trust. If you wonder whether your child will be mature enough to handle a significant inheritance at an early age, you might want to explore this trust.
The trust can include any or all of the following conditions for the distribution of assets:
An important aside: If the trust is irrevocable, you may be able to shield trust assets from creditors. This isn’t a minor issue if you have a child who, as the trust states, is a spendthrift and runs up high credit card and installment credit bills.
Choose a trustee who you can depend on, one who will follow the trust’s terms to their fullest. Also, consult your financial professional, who may recommend appropriate measures to protect your assets and make them last.
Finally, don’t forget to talk to your financial professional, estate planning attorney and tax professional to make sure the spendthrift trust achieves exactly what you want. After all, a properly drafted trust that addresses your wishes and considers the big picture is the goal.
