Forms of Trust Used By US Persons

Certain US jurisdictions and other jurisdictions have developed a radically different interpretation of the trust. Valid trusts can be established by persons who then continue to deal with property as if it were their own during their lifetime, the trust crystallising on death. Trust funds can be taxed as legal entitles by election ("checking the box").

Famous quotes containing the words forms of, forms, trust and/or persons:

    “The necessary has never been man’s top priority. The passionate pursuit of the nonessential and the extravagant is one of the chief traits of human uniqueness. Unlike other forms of life, man’s greatest exertions are made in the pursuit not of necessities but of superfluities.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “Two forms move among the dead, high sleep
    Who by his highness quiets them, high peace
    Upon whose shoulders even the heavens rest,
    Two brothers. And a third form, she that says
    Good-by in the darkness, speaking quietly there,
    To those that cannot say good-by themselves.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Jesus: Senor, the widow Gomez delivered a son this morning, a boy.
    Guthrie McCabe: Bully for the widow Gomez.
    Jesus: But Senor, it has been more than a year ago since Senor Antonio Gomez has been buried in the church house.
    McCabe: Well, there’s some men y’a just can’t trust to stay where you put ‘em.”
    —Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)

    “There is no event greater in life than the appearance of new persons about our hearth, except it be the progress of the character which draws them.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
