[quote=Anonymous]We plan to help our kids when the time comes. As long as they are working hard (have a job, not blowing money away frivolously), we have the same attitude. Why wait until we are dead (which could easily be when they are 50+) to give them millions. The money will have much more impact now for them and their future family/grandkids/etc. It also helps taxwise to start giving the max (17K/person, so 34K to our kid and 34K to the spouse and once grandkids, 34K/year to each one) yearly to avoid the estate tax maximum when we die. No plans to purchase them a mansion, but will give enough so they can have a good home in a great school district with a minimal commute to their job(s). Or a good home wherever they want and the ability to pay for private schools for the grandkids if that's what they want. Knowing school and college will be funded takes a huge burden off of our kids as they start their way in life with their own nuclear family[/quote]
