[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh for heaven's sake OP. If you are so financially successful that your ILs, who you predict will end up owing estate tax, are jealous, then why do you even care? If you ae that rich, then an 18k per year gift to your kids isn't going to make a difference in the grand scheme of things. MYOB. You are obsessing and acting pretty disgusting. [/quote]

It’s the waste of it! We are going to get the money when they die either way. Why pay multiple millions in estate tax if you don’t have to? I’m not saying they give us “all” the money early, just enough to avoid the tax. This is so out of character for them considering all the other things they do to minimize taxes. They are so resentful of paying the Medicare supplement, etc. But they are willing to give Uncle Sam all this money they don’t have to?[/quote]

If they have that much money, they surely have an advisor. They will tell them to make adjustments IF the law changes, and if trump wins, it will probably expire. [/quote]
