Living trusts are discussed in detail, including fiduciary duties, the manner in which trusts are taxed, and the characteristics of trusts versus wills. The ins and outs of long-term care insurance, such as the likelihood of coverage needs and the effect of inflation on costs and benefits, are also explained.
