Learning About Charitable Trusts
I’ve been reading up on
Charitable Trusts and learned some surprising things. For example, you can use them to save on taxes before you pass away, while still drawing income from your gift.
I’ve been reading up on the Charitable Pooled Income Fund online. Frankly, the more I can give to micro-lending programs and the less to Uncle Sam, the better.
Now comes the difficult part: informing my family of my decision. They’re all well provided for, of course, but they will object anyway.
Let me know what you think about all this.
