Joint trusts are a type of living trust created by two people (usually a married couple) that allows them to combine their assets into one trust. This approach can simplify estate planning, but it also has some drawbacks that should be considered.
Trusts can be useful if you have a large estate (millions) for tax planning, or if you want to control the money after death (minor child or financially irresponsible adult). If you have a modest estate and a responsible daughter, you probably dont need a trust.
How to Set Up a Trust Fund for a Child Specify the purpose of the Trust. Clarify how the Trust will be funded. Decide who will manage the Trust. Legally create the Trust and Trust Documents. Transfer assets into and fund the Trust.
One of the biggest mistakes parents make when setting up a trust fund is choosing the wrong trustee to oversee and manage the trust. This crucial decision can open the door to potential theft, mismanagement of assets, and family conflict that derails your childs financial future.
There is no minimum You can create a trust with any amount of assets, as long as they have some value and can be transferred to the trust.
