Trusts are often touted as smart estate planning tools, but could they actually reduce taxes for your heirs? In this listener mailbag episode, Frank responds to a question from Roger, who asks whether setting up a trust could help his children save on taxes when inheriting investment accounts.

Here’s what we discuss in this episode:
