Alpern Rosenthal Financial Services LLC

Case Studies

  • For an 84 year-old woman with a $4M taxable estate (including a $1M IRA), we devised a strategy that removed $1M from the estate and leveraged it into a $3M tax-free legacy for her heirs.
  • For a 60 year-old lawyer and his wife, we calculated the minimum return and cash flow needed to live the lives they want to live. Adjusted the portfolio accordingly, resulting in lower volatility and increased cash flow. Used incremental cash flow to make annual gifts to son, both for current use and in a legacy trust.
  • For a 55 year-old hospital administrator and her husband, we calculated the estimated estate tax due. Began pre-59.5 distributions from an IRA to provide for a college fund for future generations.
  • For a 59 year-old successful business owner and his wife, we advised them on the sale of his business, using the proceeds to generate $1M tax-free income for life. Using their excess cash flow, contributions were made to numerous charitable organizations, fulfilling their philanthropic needs. Also used his annual gift exclusions to create a family bank for his daughters and granddaughter.
