简明解释

Planning at this scale is a governance and execution program: establish the baseline, protect family security, coordinate business and investment entities, compare transfer and charitable strategies, and build a permanent valuation, tax, and administration record.

Stacking techniques multiplies risk
Technique stacking magnifies operational and audit risk.
Goals can pull in different directions

Advisers need one shared calendar
Independent trustees, appraisers, return preparers, and counsel need a shared implementation calendar.
