A practical guide to avoiding accidental philanthropy and controlling your tax destiny

Written by Daniel Nigito-a financial services expert whose programs have saved families millions in tax dollars and created millions more for charities across the United States-this timely guide will show you how to use the simple, yet powerful strategy known as "charitable leverage" to regain control of your financial life.

This proven approach, which allows you to become a partner with charity while gaining control over your tax destiny and providing for you and your family, taps into the unique tax characteristics of two financial instruments-the Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT) and Cash Value Life Insurance (CVLI)-in order to achieve some amazing goals.

• Offers insights on increasing your current income while paying less tax on it
• Discusses how to develop real asset protection without moving your money offshore or using complicated and often questionable tax schemes
• Details how you can build a personal tax-deductible retirement account that does not interfere with other retirement plans

The best way to avoid becoming an accidental philanthropist is by understanding how to make taxes work for you. The Power of Leveraging the Charitable Remainder Trust will show you how to do this and, in the process, add meaning to your money.
