In this podcast episode, Chad & Rob cover the topic of gifting to family and charity for year-end tax planning. Chad emphasizes the importance of doing a long-term cashflow projection and considering the potential taxes that need to be paid when drawing from retirement accounts. Burton explains that individuals can gift to as many people as they want, but exceeding $17,000 to a single person requires filing a gift tax return. He also discusses the estate tax exemption and how gifting can help reduce the taxable estate.
