DW and I are considering modifying our estate plan by changing the distribution of assets to the two sons to a managed trust paying out 4% or so of the balance each year, split between the two. We are basically concerned one of them will blow the money if we give it to him in a lump sum, or that it might end up in the hands of their spouse if not handled properly and the marriages don't last. To do this we'd need a fiduciary to handle the trust in case it lasts for several generations. We are concerned a managed trust might eat away at the assets with fees that are too high. We're looking for anyone who has been through this to offer any suggestions and guidance, and on what to expect for fees.
