Wealth affords us comfortable homes, access to education, and the ability to retire. But it can also provide luxuries like cars, vacation homes, real estate, jewelry, and rare collectibles. While we delight in what our wealth has provided for us, once you’re gone, it becomes your heirs’ inheritance. Of course, who wouldn’t want to inherit a rare collection of books and manuscripts? Quite possibly, your heirs.
There is no denying that some assets are worth more than others, but some assets could be a burden to those who inherit them.
