Speaking of insurance. This brings another question to mind. I debated whether to make the benefits directly payable to my children or to the trust. In my case I will probably make it payable to the trust since I need it to be more liquid to cover expenses and to allow my successor trustee more time to sell off assets.

The one danger here as I see it is that should I die in a car accident and a lawsuit is brought against my estate, I assume that benefit monies will be fair game.

As to the fire you mention. I have been thinking about the possibility of being killed or incapacitated in a house fire. Would my important documents survive? Suze Orman gives you a water proof plastic case to keep them in. Give me a break!!
