Many Estate Planners Are Cutting Out Nonprofit Gifting

Posted by Lance Winslow on Oct 04, 2009

Many wealthy individuals plan ON leaving some of their kid's inheritance monies to nonprofit groups. The wealthiest people START foundations and START funding it in their later years. Many estate planners are now telling their clients and advising them to cut out some of their nonprofit gifting. This is because with the recent stock market crash many older wealthy people have watched their assets and retirement accounts dwindle considerably. And now there may not be enough extra money for their heirs + the nonprofit groups and which they had wanted to give too.

This is unfortunate for many reasons and especially to the nonprofit groups that were counting ON large donations to run their philanthropic endeavors which help the common good. But it is also upsetting to many of the wealthy individuals that have Lost lots of money and or once had lots of money who really wanted to do something good with it after they had died.

In fact, it is interesting that as people realize they are about to die, one of the things that concerns them the most is being able to leave something behind that is significant and allowing them to feel that they made the world a better place while they were here living their life experience. So it is an emotional and psychological challenge as well.

Nevertheless, the numbers don't lie and many estate planners and financial advisors have no choice but to tell her clients they need to consider cutting some of their Nonprofit gifting. No financial professional wants to do that, and it is certainly nothing that their clients want to hear, but it is the COLD hard reality and it is something I'd like you to think about.
