What are Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)? When should you consider saving for health bills as well as reducing taxes? A big quirk in the rule that you must pay attention to otherwise you lose all the money you put in. What type of person should consider prepaying for health bills? What are SEP IRA ‘s investments for self employed people? There is a certain formula you have to use but you can save nearly triple the amount as a 401k. In’s and out’s of 529B educational funds. Jason helps us understand the limits, what qualifies as a school expense, what doesn’t count, and what to do if your kid decides to not go to university at all and the tax benefits of using an In state vs Out of state sponsored plan. Plus he discusses the legacy of paying for school for your grandchildren or other family members. Why does he caution over funding an education fund at the cost of your own retirement?

Listen for all the details and examples of this fiduciary capacity.   Testamentary trust, what are they?

What is a good schedule and time frame for your children to start receiving lump  sum amounts from their trust?
