[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by jrbarney</i> <br /><br />I'm certainly not a lawyer, but I'd like to suggest that those whom have sizeable estates consider putting their financial assets in a revocable trust to avoid probate. In my opinion, this topic of what you want done with your models should be covered in the leading railroad magazines more often. <br />Bob <br />NMRA Life 0543 <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Agreed. <br /> <br />Plus the fact that the average age of model railroaders is rising as well. This is going to be a hot topic before to long. Of course a plus side could be for a young pup like me. All the older participants of the hobby die, flooding the second hand market. Brass 4-8-4s for $100.00 [:D][8D][:D] Wishful thinking, I know. <br /> <br />Due to the recent death of my grandmother, I have been thinking alot about my personal end game alot lately. So Far I think I will stipulate that my layout will pass to the child, grandchild, or great grandchild, who would like to take over the layout lock stock and barrell and continue its operation, and expansion. Should no direct decendent of mine wi***o take it on, then I will leave it to a museum, along with the neccissary funds to build a proper home for it, and eneugh funding to help out with maintenence and upkeep. <br /> <br />But alas I am 22 years old. Life doesn't begin until Im 40. So I will not dwell on it to much. <br /> <br />James
