[quote=Anonymous]I think they are probably being smart. Yes it will cost in estate taxes but they are probably worried they might need it. Now that i’m watching my dad and aunt aging, I see that unless you are really wealthy there is no guarantee you will have enough money in late life. If you give it to your kids or grandkids and then realize you need it, do you ask for it back? My aunt spends $300k a year for her round the clock care. She never imagined her money would run out in her lifetime but that’s exactly what is likely to happen in a few years. At minimum she will have to sell her home in the next year and I don’t know where she will wind up. She had plenty of money saved. It’s sad and terrifies me. [/quote]
