I am 74, wife is 71. Have been married 49 years, no children, no debt, good health, jointly own house and cars free and clear. Get along well and trust each other. Planning for a situation where one becomes incapacitated (stroke, dementia, etc) and the other needs to sell house, liquidate other...
I have read that it is advisable for spouses to be general durable POA agents for each other. This would be particularly helpful if one needs to sell real estate when the other is incapacitated. It makes sense to me especially if it would avoid a guardianship process. Do you agree?

You were right. I was able to file an amended PA return. Turns out it was only $3 and PA considers that an even return. LOL, I bet if I owed them $3 they would be all over me.
I found out that keypad is unacceptable because a child could watch and learn the code. It is impractical to issue keys or cards to all residents. I confirmed with township that latch must be 54”. Normally gates are 48” and you would use a pull up magnetic latch mounted at 54”. We have a five...
LOL, our Board is asking me. This is a very interesting topic actually as there are competing interests in the various codes. Accessibility vs child safety and it appears child safety wins. Our county has a set of pool safety rules which say latch has to be high enough to prevent children from...

I am going to transition from maintaining multiple (6-8) bank CD’s to brokered CD’s with Vanguard. Not sure if VG 1099-Int will be a lump sum or list each brokered CD. Will the IRS require me to list each brokered CD individually, just like I do now with CD’s from multiple banks? Thanks.
Ok, thx. I would have never picked up that subtlety. I would not mind holding but I would never expect to get anyone who would give me a reliable answer.
Thx, but that does not answer my question. I will call Del and report back. Let me ask it this way, does a distribution from an inherited IRA qualify for the $12,500 exclusion?
