EXAMPLES OF ABUSIVE TRUST ARRANGEMENTS

Part Four

The Charitable Trust

In the charitable trust, the owner transfers assets to an alleged charitable trust and claims either that payments to the trust are deductible or that the payments made by the trust are deductible charitable contributions. Payments are, in fact, made to charitable organizations. However, the payments are principally for personal educational, living, or recreational expenses of the owner or the owner’s family. One example would be the trust paying the college tuition of the owner’s son.
