. . the Sigma Nu Educational Foundation website
has information to help educate you on all the
possible ways you can prepare your estate to benefit
your family and the organizations you care about.
These are the newest articles on the site this
month:
How much do you know about wills? Take our new
quiz, "Q & A:
Creating a Better Will" and find out.
A charitable remainder trust (CRT) is a special
way to make a charitable gift, provide a stream
of payments to yourself or a loved one, and enjoy
some tax benefits. Read "Steps
in Creating a Charitable Remainder Trust"
to help you (and your charitable beneficiaries)
maximize this method of giving.
If you are considering making a gift to the Foundation,
your wisest choice may not be a gift of cash.
By donating cash, you are giving away income for
which you have already been taxed. A more beneficial
alternative may be to donate an asset that has
increased significantly in value, such as stock,
which carries a hidden liability in the form of
capital gains. Learn more about the rhyme and
reason of donations in "When
Cashing in Does Not Pay."
If you're considering making some type of charitable
donation, we suggest you make a plan and consider
all the possibilities, including your personal
needs, income tax deductions, and the needs of
our organization. Review the helpful tips that
you'll find in "Analyze
Your Personal Needs Before You Give."
Don't forget to read our new monthly feature,
Golden
Strategies. Unearth bright ideas through a
simple Q&A forum. Golden Strategies has answers
to questions relevant to today's seniors and their
lifestyles.
