[quote=Anonymous]We set up a DAF about 15 years ago using a lot of appreciated stock. Since then every year we gift out most of the prior years gains such that what is in the DAF today is modestly larger than what we originally put in. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. Just recently we made another large contribution to the DAF to offset some large capital gains. About five years ago we set up a CRUT and each year we take out 5% (minimum amount required) but setting it up required a lawyer and every year we have to file a trust return which costs money itself. A CRUT is only worth it if you are putting in a lot of money. For most people a DAF is the smart way to go. Fidelity has a really good DAF. [/quote]
