ANECDOTE

Family Farm Heir Complexity

  • A family farm co-owned by two partners has two children each, with one child working in the farm and one not.
  • This creates complexity in fairly distributing wealth while honoring all children equally.
ADVICE

Use Financing Strategies Wisely

  • Utilize loans or lines of credit like immediate financing arrangements to fund corporate-owned life insurance policies.
  • Consider short-term shareholder loans or pulling equity from personal properties before complex strategies.
INSIGHT

Focus on Long-Term Needs

  • The real need is managing future capital gains and accessing retained earnings tax efficiently.
  • Immediate cash access isn't urgent; strategic planning for legacy and capital gains is key.
