    Ambassadors to other countries are a vital part of international relations. It is not uncommon for an ambassador to be the face or image of one country to another. Ambassadors act as a window into the importance of education, security, financial situations, business, and other societal issues. An ambassador has th

    Outsource our Government to India; Save Taxpayers Money
    Well it looks as if we need to make some serious choices with our government, as they just will not stop spending will they? They just keep blowing money on all sorts of crap, none of really relevant to anything in the Constitution, except the military expenditures perhaps.Nevertheless it is time to downsize a
    As a newsletter writer, I get bombarded with questions.

    I feel sorry for many of the folks who write, since they have gotten themselves into some pretty serious legal problems.

    I can't (and don't) respond to specific questions, but sometimes like to change the questions around a little (to protect the person asking) and give my comments so everyone can learn.

    Dear Mr. Craig,

    I have had an AB Living Trust since 1992. My husband recently passed away.

    I am confused as what to do about our living trust.

    Some items, mentioned in the trust (real estate) were never deeded to trust (still in joint tenancy).

    At the time of my husband's death, some investment items were (are) still in my husband's name, with no beneficiary, especially items from our late daughter's estate (deceased 2002) including one-half share in my late daughter's house (there was a probate distribution which gave equal shares to my husband and myself). This was never changed to our living trust or to joint tenancy.

    Binders
    Binders are perfect presentation solutions. They organize loose papers and help give a more professional impression for presentations. They have been around since the later half of 19th century. However, since 1954 the American thermoplastic industry pioneered manufacturing and custom printing of these loose-leaf pro

    People Inefficiencies within an Organization
    People Inefficiencies: Organizations are run by individuals. Each individual who is part of the organization has some degree of responsibility for certain number of actions, processes, etc. Let us call these “people tasks.” For example, the hiring process requires the use of an interviewer; thus, the interview pr

    My husband's half share of our house is worth over $100,000. Evidently this will have to go through probate. Without the house, my husband's assets are less than $100,000. I have had "offer" by a lawyer to clear up the living trust for about $3,000, plus an attempt at an "Estate of Heggsted" petition to avoid Probate (another $3000 or so).

    I didn't realize a Living Trust could be so complicated or expensive.

    I thought a "Pour-Over Will" would put items not listed into the trust.

    Plus, I didn't realize what an AB Living Trust meant and that it had to be divided between the survivor and the deceased spouse and that I am limited as to what I can use from his share.

    I'm learning the hard way. Sorry this seems so confusing.

    My first impression? When did they last go over their estate plan with their lawyer?
