Housekeeper

An irrevocable trust designed to save on estate tax. there are several kinds; with all of them, you keep income from trust property, or use of that property, for a period of years. when the trust ends, the property goes to the final beneficiaries you’ve named. these trusts are for people who have enough wealth to feel comfortable giving away a substantial hunk of property. they come in three flavors: grantor-retained annuity trusts (grats), grantor-retained unitrusts (gruts), and grantor-retained income trusts (grits).
