Sunday’s Super Bowl garnered $7.6 billion in gambling activity. Name any problem and the weak link is not resources, money, or knowledge. The weak link is failure to imagine and then act. When we see a figure like $7.6 billion, we read it like any other statistic and go on about our day as if all is right in the world. For fun, I decided to put physical ramifications to $7.6 billion.

In our last post we discussed whether having a bypass trust is better than portability. A reader sent us a comment regarding the fact that the current $12.060 million exemption is scheduled to be cut in half beginning in 2026. That is correct for anyone that is living at that time (unless Congress makes it permanent). However, for anyone passes away before January 1, 2026, the full amount of the current unused exemption amount is available to the surviving spouse.
