“One of the things that I found most profound to do in my life is to occasionally when I feel really down and put upon, betrodden, I make a gratitude list.”
“What a lot of those people are shown is a charitable remainder trust, which is, of course, the flip side of the lead. In a remainder trust, either the person who creates the trust or somebody else, or maybe one or two others, are the beneficiaries for a term of years.”
“I hope you eat way too much turkey.”
