(20:00) Jim, Chris, and Jake respond to a question about whether creating multiple special needs trusts can multiply the $5,000 federal tax deduction.
(28:00) The guys weigh in on a year-of-death strategy involving large Roth conversions and other planning considerations for a surviving spouse.
(49:45) A listener wants to know how Form 8606 helps during retirement and when its tracking of after-tax basis becomes useful.
(57:00) George asks what documentation the IRS will accept to establish a 2001 cost basis for inherited land now worth significantly more.
(1:07:45) The team evaluates whether Roth conversions make sense for a retiree already in the third IRMAA tier.
