When we spend time in the office mapping out a long-term financial strategy, it’s easy for us to get buried in the mechanics — how much to move, what to withhold for taxes, how to structure the accounts to maximize tax efficiencies. These are all important considerations when it comes to protecting your capital.
Who needs a trust? Think about it like specialty insurance. Some people genuinely need it based on their circumstances; others don’t. You wouldn’t add rust protection to a vehicle unless your environment called for it. The same idea applies here.
When you’re early in your career, much of financial advice focuses on the essentials — budgeting, saving, retirement contributions — but what a lot of people neglect is what would happen to those assets in case of an early or unexpected loss of life. It’s not a fun topic, but, especially once you’ve started a family, it becomes really important.
