Sometimes I think about worst-case scenarious. How are various accounts/income streams/assets protected from various "events"?
Stocks/bonds/mutual funds/annuities - what if the company (such as FIDO) were to go bankrupt?
What items are "attachable" in a lawsuit? For example, if I was sued, and lost...could they take...
My 401k?
My Annuity purchased from my 401k money?
My house?
A DB pension?
An IRA/Roth?
What about catastrophic medical costs? What of the above can they take to get me down to the limit to go on Medicaid?
I do have an executive insurance policy for $1M...and am considering increasing it to $2M due to the growth of our assets over the past 5 years.
