The taxing of estates is to this writer, one of the most confusing and misunderstood sections of the tax code. You can sit for hours reading the IRS' website on the subject and still be lost. I have searched for some great links that I feel will explain in simple language all of the aspects of estate taxation.
Anyone who has accumulated wealth, no matter what age, should educate themselves on what will happen with their estate should they not plan ahead. I strongly suggest that everyone take some time and read some of these links.
Education and knowledge are powerful tools and the following links contain very valuable information.
