A trust can be a powerful legacy tool- but is it the right beneficiary for your retirement accounts? In this episode of Financial Futures, we break down the pros, cons, and tax implications of listing a trust as a beneficiary, especially in a post–SECURE Act world. George is joined by estate planning attorney and return guest Claire DeLorenzo of Forman Law, who shares insights on when a trust makes sense and when it could create unintended consequences.
