Or even better..
Husband, POD wife w/1 beneficiary - $500K.
Wife, POD husband w/1 different beneficiary - $500K.
Husband and wife, JTWROS - $500K
Total: $1.5M. And that's before you start to add additional benes or get creative with different account types (taxable v. IRA v. trust) and other creative tricks.
ETA - don't have time to check at the moment so please don't take that you have to have different benes listed in the above scenario to get to $1M on the individually titled accounts..if someone has time plz run the calculator and check if they need to be different benes or can be the same..
