Spiritual Seeker:
I had a choice between a trust and a will. I like the idea of a will better because with a trust fund i had to pick somebody to make those hard decisions - (you get this, you don't get that). And i did not know if that somebody would make decisions that i would have felt comfortable with - in other words, i did not know if somehow that somebody would have been manipulated in using my assets to keep AS sick.... Plus, i did not want to have to put that somebody in such a situation...
I can change the will pretty cheap somewhere down the line if i want to change it so AS does get his share.
