5 Assets That SHOULD Never Go Into A Living Trust

Have questions about this video? Sign up for a free consultation to get your questions answered by the professionals. aba.link/zev
In this video, I'm breaking down the types of assets you should NOT put into your living trust and why.
While many videos discuss how to fund your trust, few address which assets should stay out of it.
💰 Let's discuss annuities, IRAs, and 401(k)s. These assets are essentially trust agreements themselves and should remain outside of your living trust. Attempting to transfer them into your trust could trigger unintended tax consequences or jeopardize their special tax treatment.
By understanding which assets belong in your trust and which don't, you can ensure your estate planning strategy is both effective and efficient.

    Nope, 401K needs to name the trust as beneficiary because all of the 401Ks I see now require an SSN for a beneficiary and they have no right to keep my children's SSN in their records which will certainly be hacked at some point. So if I name my trust then I don't put my children in harms way. Their SSN is not mine to go handing out to people

  • @hornbaker

    Make the trust the beneficiary so you specify distributions in one place. At death, your trustee can choose to a) cash them out (taxable event for pre-tax funds) and manage the cash under the trust instructions (such as delaying distribution), or b) step out of the middle and direct the institution to payout directly to the beneficiaries, enabling them to receive it in an Inherited IRA and withdraw it over 10 years. Only reason not to do this is if your estate would exceed the tax exempt limits.

    Make copies of your house keys or properties and give it to your beneficiaries that you picked. Let them take everything that belongs to your family when you and your spouse passed away. They don't need to know what you owned, it would be less headaches and will saves the beneficiaries tons of money. You can still have a living trust for the house be smart you worked hard for your stuff, keep it to your family. That is my own opinion and good luck.

    You have obviously never dealt with a Living Trust. It is the responsibility of the Successor Trustee to inventory all assets and use the assets to pay off all debts owed BEFORE distributing $$ to beneficiaries as designated in the Trust. The US government requires all $$ given to beneficiaries by the Trust be reported the IRS. Yes. Each beneficiary is given a separate Tax form for reporting on their personal taxes. You are giving bad and illegal advice. Any beneficiaries doing what you advised could be charged with Breaking and Entering, burglary and grand theft (3 felonies) and have to serve years in prison. Shame on you!

    Probate can let your beneficiaries get the free stepped up value for real estate as of d/o/d and avoid tons of capital gains taxes. Know your state. There are no estate taxes in TN. The costs attendant to preparing and funding living trusts can be far more expensive than the cost of probate. Figure out what you are trying to accomplish. A trust is not always the most advantageous method of transferring wealth.

    Do not put your bank accounts in the Living Trust. You could easily assign beneficiaries. There are also some complications with using trust for bank accounts. Some banks treat a trust as a "business entity", and you will get less interest. There is also no need to put timeshares in a trust if they are not already in there. It is a hassle and costs money.

    I’ve got a bunch of different accounts - why would I want to have to update all of them separately? Easier for the trust to own the accounts and then say in one place “12% goes to Fred, 17% goes to Sally, etc.” If you had only one beneficiary, you *could* add direct beneficiaries to all your accounts, home, vehicles - if your state allows this (not all do for cars and homes). But anything that can’t have a TOD specified would be forced through probate.

    A living trust can be modified at any time by the original grantors (you, who set it up), that’s because it’s a revocable (living) trust. So yes, it can change later in life or at anytime you need it to if your circumstances have changed. You should always get an attorney to change it however, it’s not really a DIY kind of thing.

    Your instructions about motor vehicle transfer are NOT accurate for all states. For instance, In New York only 1 vehicle can be transferred to an immediate relative. In addition, vehicles that are owned jointly can be passed to the survivor. Unfortunately, the rest will go through probate, unless they are in a trust. However, that is not ideal either, as it will be difficult, or very expensive to obtain insurance in NYS.

    Generally, your assets need to be in an irrevocable trust (not a living trust) for 5 years to shield them from Medicaid look-back. I don’t believe an irrevocable trust can own an IRA, so you may need to cash it out to move the funds (a taxable event, usually). Also, know that if assets like IRA or annuity are in one spouse’s name and they require long-term care / Medicaid, the other spouse is exposed because their name is not on the account. You need to balance your retirement accounts to prevent this.
