My son ahd my daughter are beneficiaries of my living trust. Can my son also be the Administrator
of the assets, I plan to have the assets distributed over a period of 10 years. During the 10 years I will instruct the Administrator to invest the estate money, including proceeds from selling all the rest of my assets to be put into a seperate account. The administrator will invest the account money in FDIC certificates such as there will be enough cash to distribute once a year by my son (both beneficiary and administrator). He would be responsible to file income tax each year until all the money is distributed. The reason I want to do this is because my daughter recently re-married the second time, to a man that now is his third marraige. That way she won’t get her portion of the money all at once in case they would spend the money and waste it.
