Living trusts may be one of the most misunderstood of all estate planning tools, especially because there are several common myths about living trusts floating around. Maybe you've even heard some of them yourself and, because of misinformation, you think setting up a trust isn't for you.

The Pros and Cons of Living Trusts

Well, with all due respect to people at the television show, MythBusters , it's time to bust up some myths about living trusts. First, let's talk about what a living trust is, some living trust basics , and why a living trust may be an important part of your estate plan. A living trust, also called a revocable living trust or living revocable trust , allows the person writing the trust the grantor to retain control over the trust property until death.

Then the trust is turned over to the successor trustee, who had been handpicked by the grantor, to distribute the trust property according to the grantor's wishes. There are several benefits to having a living trust as part of your estate plan, including the fact that the trust often enables the assets contained therein to avoid probate , allowing for a fast, easy distribution to your beneficiaries without additional costs.

A living trust maintains your privacy because its provisions stay confidential, which is in sharp contrast to a last will and testament, whose contents become a matter of public record after the testator's death. One last note: A revocable trust is called as such because it can be changed at any time by the grantor during his or her lifetime.

An irrevocable trust, on the other hand, cannot.

Why You Don't Need a Living Trust

This is probably the most widely believed of the living trust myths , and, as you may already have guessed, it couldn't be further from the truth. But that doesn't mean that trusts are an estate planning option only for the rich. To the contrary, many people of average incomes find that the benefits of a living trust as described above can make them an advantageous choice for their estate planning as well. While many people create living trusts primarily to make sure the trust property goes to their heirs quickly and easily after their death, a living trust can also allow for easier handling of the grantor's affairs should he or she become incapacitated.

In such a situation, having a living trust in place can make things much less stressful and hassle-free for loved ones left to take care of your affairs while you are unable to do so. The truth is that the funds and assets in a living trust can be made as accessible as you wish—to you or to whomever else you desire. Accordingly, if you want to use the trust primarily for your benefit, you can set it up so that everything in it is accessible to you until your death.

Conversely, you can also make the funds inaccessible to those you don't want to be able to use them during your lifetime. By and large, the assets contained within a trust will usually escape probate, with one big caveat, and it's a great reason to make sure you have experienced professionals helping you set up your trust: If there are assets that were not in the trust, those will still have to go through the regular probate process. This is why it is of the utmost importance that your trust be fully funded—with all of the assets you wish to pass on—in order to gain the full advantage of probate avoidance.

False, false, false, and, in fact, you can create a living trust easily by using online living trust forms such as those found at LegalZoom.

‘I Don’t Trust My Friends!’

Alternately, you can hire a specialized estate planning attorney or other legal professional to draw up the documents. It is true that setting up a trust may cost a bit more upfront than simply writing a last will and testament, but the cost savings later and the other benefits of establishing a living trust can make up for those expenses in the long run. Now that you've got the straight scoop on living trusts, if you're ready to move forward you can make the process go even more smoothly by thinking about the following:.

Note that if there are minor children who would be inheriting through the trust, you have the option to name someone to manage the assets for them until they reach the age of majority.

It seems that every opportunity I give to this one articular group, they give reason to not trust. My trust issues are deep I guess. I grew up never knowing my father, never feeling I lived up to my step fathers standards, my mother was never home.

I was always with a sitter. I felt like the sitter never wanted us there. Obviously my mother was looking to pawn us off on someone, anyone. Someone broke in our home when my brother and I were home alone one night. We were 10 and There was an attempted break in prior to that. My mother sent my brother away when he was 16 because he was getting into trouble.

He ended his life just after he turned I tried to have a relationship with my step father but he quit communicating with me when my daughter ended up pregnant at the age of The shame I guess. I had a best friend once. Loved her like a sister. She made a move on my husband. Belittling me, tearing me down. No one can imagine the strength it takes to put myself out there only to get rejected. I also wonder if not getting diagnosed with ADHD until I was 45 has kept me from building friendships.

Oh, the baby my daughter had when she was young, I took legal guardianship of her to provide her insurance. I started doing my own research in an effort to better understand. Maybe even heal.

Keep the faith! But I find it very difficult!! My childhood… I came at a bad time for my mother in a bad way, rape! I always feel like my husband is sneaky. When he probably isnt! I have outrages!! Screaming and fussing. Then I hate myself for it!! Then I spiral downhill to a drunken state. I keep a very small circle. Family only. But most live to far away. I have lots of pride and dignity. Just wish I could put the past behind me and wake up a new person. If not while on this side of the dirt.

No self pity. I get up and go to work every day with a smile upon my face!! Hi , I have a different feeling about trust. It seems to me that , trust is needed only when there is a problem. We do not need trust when everything is alright. Every day my propensity to trust people keeps decreasing. It hurts when you think of someone very close to you to be the solution of your problem , then it turns out to be a mirage.

In reality that person had earned your support in the past. It is not a pay back but a way to stand with you at the critical time.
