Episode 51: Myth Busting the Recent IRS Revenue Ruling on IDGTs: What You Need to Know
A recent revenue ruling by the IRS has caused some confusion. The ruling applies to “intentionally defective grantor trusts” or IDGTs. Bellomo & Associates does not use IDGTs. Instead, the firm uses “irrevocable grantor trusts” or “pure grantor trusts.” The IRS ruling does NOT apply to these types of trusts.

When someone calls Bellomo & Associates looking for information for the first time, they speak with Intake Specialist Jacob Sherman. Jacobs passion for helping others, especially during a tough time, is evident from the start. As a provider of what Jeff calls, service extraordinaire, Jacob ensures that a persons initial interaction with Bellomo is helpful and positive. Jacob applies that same level of commitment to his work as a health coach. Jacob introduced Jeff to OPTAVIA, the program of healthy habits that Jeff has used to lose 100 pounds. Both men have had life-changing success with the program. This discussion of their journeys back to health is truly inspiring.Learn more about OPTAVIA at https://www.optavia.com/ Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/finding-hope-in-loss-meet-jacob-sherman/id1634278675?i=1000633436555 YouTube: https://youtu.be/gRX7g5KgJfo Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7mZUon8zLh3kQ5sV3syum6?si=Y6YL8zsbQeCpjcWUV7pPzQ
Jeff reflects on his many years as an attorney and shares the advice he would give himself as a young lawyer. As it turns out, his advice consists of universal truths: think differently; keep learning and growing; be clear, consistent, and honest in your communications; accept that people need to make their own decisions in their own time; nurture and value your relationships; and, most of all, cherish your loved ones and tell them how you feel.
