Key Quotes “If you think about the value of our business, the value of our retirement accounts, the value of our life insurance, the value of our real estate that could easily reach that number pretty quickly.” - Larry D. West III “One of the things that you can do while you're still here, especially with these limits being so high, is that you can start to give things from yourself to your next generation. You can give your property to them and move it out from your estate. So that you can use that exemption while you're here, instead of losing it in the event that you pass away.” - Larry D.
