Yet, their claims are rarely questioned. It is the classic …

Question about Estate Tax My extended family is going through a trust from an uncle that passed away in October. My cousin is the one in charge of the estate/trust and is telling us that if the estate ends up being over $60 million, there will be taxes on it.

Elderly and debt, curious of downside for not aggressively paying down the debt. Won’t their estate just be responsible for repayment of debt? And if no estate $, it goes away? So at my age (30s) and my parents age (50-60s) it makes sense to aggressively focus on paying down debt. But what about for those in their 70s and 80s who are already well within their retirement and have had debt for 5 decades? Longer story. My grandparents have always been in and out of debt. Their credit has never been good and they don’t ma…
