No Grey Trusts are increasingly becoming the preferred method of life and succession planning for single or unmarried individuals. Many of my single clients initially believed a will would suffice for passing on their assets. But as I listened to their stories, their dreams and the thoughtful ways they envisioned managing and distributing their wealth to the special people they had met along their journey, it became clear to me that a trust was a more fitting way to capture their intentions both during their lifetime and beyond. The truth is, trusts offer unmatched flexibility to address a variety of priorities. Whether its setting up a financial safety net for aging parents, ensuring lifelong care for a sibling who is differently abled, setting aside funds to support a close friends art, contributing to scholarships or charitable causes - all of this and more can be done through the trust mechanism. Unlike wills, trusts can be activated during one's lifetime. Plus, trusts eliminate the need for probate or a succession certificate. This helps save time, avoid court fees and the stress of navigating the court process. Trusts truly offer a practical, private and thoughtful way to protect what matters most.

“Simplify Your Life”   This is some of the best wisdom I have received in recent years as life gets complicated. Often the things we hope will bring us freedom only increase our busyness, pulling us further away from the things and people that matter in life.    One thing I value about NCF is that we are in the business of helping people simplify their lives. We do this in a few ways:    A Giving Strategy: We walk alongside our Givers to help develop a strategy for their generosity, taking the heavy lifting off their shoulders.   A Giving Fund: We provide a consolidated platform for all giving, making it easier to manage and track generosity over time.   The Gift Experience: We have a team of relationship managers, attorneys, asset managers, and more to walk alongside Givers as they make a Gift.   Complex Gifts: Since our existence we have taken in over $6 Billion in non-cash assets. This has helped us develop a streamlined experience for giving illiquid Gifts. Have you considered a Giving Strategy to help you simplify your life allowing you to focus on the things you love?
