In this short video, Mark Kohler explains how trusts provide a versatile framework for estate planning. He emphasizes that a trust lets you dictate exactly how your assets are distributed—whether by establishing a personal charity, directing funds to existing charitable causes, or bequeathing money to family members such as nieces and nephews. Kohler portrays the trust as a tool that lets you "write the book" of your legacy, offering flexibility to allocate wealth according to your wishes and ensuring that your hard‑earned money is used in the ways you intend.

The trust gives you a lot of creative options. You can create your own charity within the provisions of a trust and say, here's where I want my assets to go. I want my trustee to create a charity that does the following, or I want them to find a charity that does this, or I'd like to leave my money to some nieces and nephews. I want to do this. I want to do that. This is your chance to write your book of where all this legacy goes, like all this hard work and money goes, and the trust allows you that flexibility.
