#800 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/800 Presented by: Pescador on the Fly, Intrepid Camp Gear, Mountain Waters Resort, Patagonia Sponsors: https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors In this episode, we sit down with Robert “Bob” Lindquist of Flies for Fish to talk all about fly fishing the Delaware River. Bob grew up fishing Montauk beaches from a '55 Willys Jeep, learned to tie flies on common nails, and eventually dedicated his life to guiding and teaching others on one of the most technical tailwaters in the East. We dive into how to read rise forms, why line management can matter more than casting distance, and how a bar merger pattern can outfish a dry fly four-to-one. Bob also shares the truth behind the Delaware's legendary rainbow trout, his go-to patterns for the river, and why furled leaders and reach casts are game changers in this fishery.

Nick Yarris shouldn’t be alive… On December 21 1981, Nick and a friend stole a car. When arrested, he got into a physical confrontation with a police officer who claimed he was trying to kidnap him and attempting to murder him. When in jail, he saw a newspaper headline about the murder and rape of Linda Mae Craig, a woman who had been abducted in Delaware, USA. In an effort to win favour with the authorities and avoid the consequences of his pending charges, Yarris claimed that he knew who had committed the unsolved rape-murder. When the man he named, whom he had wrongly believed to be recently deceased, proved upon investigation to be plainly uninvolved, Yarris became the suspect number one. Nick was then charged with the abduction, rape and murder of Craig. After a short jury trial, Yarris was found guilty. In July 1982, at age 21, he was sentenced to death. He escaped custody when travelling from the sentence hearing. He was arrested in Florida a month later where he was returned to Pennsylvania’s death row. In this interview, Nick discusses how his time in prison was one of the best things that ever happened to him; why Adrian Brody wants to portray him on stage and talks candidly about what it’s like to live on Death Row, knowing that you’re innocent.

SHOW NOTES: In today's Money Pit show, whether you're winterizing plumbing, upgrading a patio, or stocking your first apartment toolbox, we've got the seasonal checklist and savvy tips to keep your home running smoothly from fall onward. Check out these topics, plus home improvement questions from our DIY callers: - Home Checklist for Fall: Prepare for cooler temperatures with our ultimate fall home prep checklist, covering essential tasks like sealing drafts, servicing your furnace, and prepping your lawn. - Setting Up Your First Home or Apartment: For students heading off to dorms or first apartments, we provide an essential tool checklist and pro tips for setting up and maintaining a new space. - Leak-Proof Plumbing for Cold Weather: Get crucial steps to leak-proof your home's plumbing before cold weather hits, including disconnecting and draining outdoor hose bibs, insulating exposed pipes in crawl spaces, and inspecting your water heater. - Outdoor Space Upgrades: We also discuss enhancing your outdoor spaces, with everything from porches and patios to landscaping, hardscaping, fences, and fire pits. Q & A: - Sandy in Nebraska called about her porous ceramic tile floors that just won't come clean. The glaze might be worn off, and while re-glazing isn't really an option, she could consider laminate flooring for an inexpensive, moisture-resistant option that floats over the old floor. - Larry in Texas has a question about replacing his hail-damaged roof and an insurance estimate that missed a few items. We advise getting the insurance adjuster to revise the estimate in writing immediately to include all missed components, like skylights and roof jacks. - Eve in Delaware is battling a stubborn cigarette smoke smell in a newly purchased row home, even after removing tiles and painting. The key solution is to use a good-quality oil-based primer on all surfaces, including walls, ceilings, and even exposed plywood subfloors, to effectively seal in the odors. - Ron in Oregon is looking for the best way to clean his seven-year-old Brazilian cherry floor. We suggest starting with a thorough cleaning to remove existing residue, then renting a buffer to apply a floor wax for a beautiful, natural glow that can last for years. - Ivonne in Arizona had a stinky bathroom sink drain. The foul odor is likely being caused by bacterial decay forming bio-gas in the drain. The fix involves taking apart the U-shaped trap under the sink and scrubbing the inside with an oxygenated bleach solution and a stiff-bristle brush to eliminate the bacteria.

Date: Tuesday, 1:45 – 2:33 Griffin Warner Explains that Group of Five games offer strong betting opportunities. Begins with Army (West Point) win total: Over 7.5 at +110, Under 7.5 at -140 on BetOnline. 2:35 – 4:41 Lonte Smith — Army Analysis 2023 Recap: 12–2, AAC champions, led by QB Bryson Daly (dark horse Heisman) and RB Kanye Udo. Losses: Daly to graduation, Udo to Arizona State, two Joe Moore Award-winning offensive tackles, best defensive player to Georgia. Returning Talent: Six of top ten tacklers; LB corps Miller & Thomas praised. Concerns: Offensive drop-off, new OL coach, challenging schedule (Tulane, UTSA, Navy, Air Force). Projection: 7–5 ceiling, 6–6 floor → leans Under 7.5. 4:41 – 6:08 Griffin Warner & Lonte Smith — Schedule Talk Army's 2024 slate includes K-State, North Texas, Tulane, Air Force, Navy (in Baltimore). Lonte favors Navy among service academies, citing better returning production and depth. 7:16 – 14:52 Western Kentucky (C-USA) Odds: Over 7.5 (-125), Under 7.5 (-105). 2023: 8–6 record. Roster: Only 3 starters return (1 offense, 2 defense). Poor 2023 rush defense (224 YPG). Key Additions: QB Maverick McIver (Abilene Christian, 3,500+ yds, 37 TDs), OC Rick Bowie (former Abilene OC). WR Matt Henry (1,100+ yds at Western Illinois). Concerns: OL continuity, defensive holes, rush defense. Schedule: Winnable home games; road tests at Toledo, Delaware, Missouri State. Projection: ~8.6 wins → leans Over 7.5. 15:43 – 20:22 Bowling Green (MAC) Odds: Over 6.5 (+200), Under 6.5 (-260). 2023: 7–6 (6–2 MAC). Changes: New HC Eddie George; ranked 130th in returning production; offense loses top TE hero Fanning (drafted by Browns). Defense: Loses 13 of top 15 tacklers but adds FCS standouts (including Eddie George's son). Schedule: Lafayette, Cincinnati, Liberty, Louisville early; Toledo and Buffalo at home. Projection: Depth concerns, brutal early stretch → Under (expects ~4–8). 20:53 – 25:10 Air Force (MWC) Odds: Over/Under 6.5 (-115). 2023: 5–7 after starting 1–7, finished on 4-game win streak.

Roster: 10 starters return (5 offense, 5 defense). QB J.C. French (2,500+ yds, 17 TDs, 11 INTs, 66% comp). Deep WR corps; strong OL with most combined starts in Sun Belt. Defense: Needs rush D improvement; strong secondary led by Chance Gamble. Schedule: Fresno, USC, Jacksonville State, JMU, Coastal, ODU, Marshall. Projection: Favors in most conference games except JMU → Over 7.5 (floor 8 wins). 31:07 – 38:35 Playoff/Long-shot Discussion No strong playoff contenders from teams covered; JMU strong but blocked by JMU matchup for Georgia Southern. Boise State (2–1 to make playoffs) downgraded without RB Ashton Jeanty. Long-shot pick: South Florida (33–1) if QB Byron Brown stays healthy; avoid betting until after tough Miami/Florida stretch. 38:36 – End Best Bet: Army Under 7.5 wins. Rationale: Loss of QB, RB, two elite tackles, new OL coach, tough schedule, regression from 12–2 2023 season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Ari Sacher has spent more than three decades working at Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, Israel's premier developer of missile technology, where he played key roles in the creation of the Iron Dome and David's Sling missile defense systems. Originally from Wilmington, Delaware, Ari's journey took him from upstate New York and Toronto to Israel in 1982—and he never looked back. An electrical engineer educated at Israel's Technion (often called “Israel's MIT”), Ari has been at the forefront of developing systems that protect millions of lives, all while holding fast to his faith and deep love for family. In this episode of The Wow Factor, Brad sits down with Ari for a fascinating conversation about life in Israel, the realities of living under constant threat, and the powerful blend of faith, resilience, and technological ingenuity that keeps the country moving forward. Ari shares the story of his work on missile defense systems, the challenges of innovation in the face of failure, and how his faith has been a guiding force through wars, uncertainty, and the ever-present dangers his nation faces. From four generations of New York Giants fandom to raising children who now serve in the military, Ari's story is one of commitment—to his people, his work, and his God. “If you're unwilling to fail, then you will find yourself locked in a room and you will go wherever you are taken. If we want to lead, we have to be unafraid of failing.” – Ari Sacher “When I see Iron Dome working, then I see godliness. Everything I see is godliness.” – Ari Sacher “We are a country that lives with traumatic stress disorder—that's who we are, where we live, and our destiny.” – Ari Sacher This Week on The Wow Factor: Ari's early years in the U.S., his move to Israel for a “gap year,” and how he never returned home Studying electrical engineering at Technion and turning down prestigious U.S. and Canadian universities Joining Rafael Advanced Defense Systems in 1991 and contributing to two of Israel's most critical missile defense systems—Iron Dome and David's Sling The unique “intercept chain” process behind missile defense and why not every incoming rocket is destroyed How failure is embraced in Israeli innovation and why it's essential for breakthroughs The role of faith during high-threat moments—turning to Psalms in the middle of missile attacks Life in Israel during wartime, including cramming 15 family members and a dog into a 100-square-foot bomb shelter The spiritual parallels between God's protection and a missile defense “dome” Ari Sacher's Word of Wisdom: Live with an unwavering belief in God, and let that belief color how you see the world. When everything you see reinforces your faith, you gain comfort, strength, and a better way to lead your family through uncertainty.

What happens when two people with a shared vision for community, craftsmanship, and legacy decide to take the leap into shop ownership? For Scott and his wife, the answer is Delaware Metals. In this inspiring conversation, Scott Bruneau shares how he and his wife purchased a decades-old, well-run machine shop—not as a quick flip, but as a long-term investment in American manufacturing, their team, and their community. With over 20 years in the industry himself, Scott knew the road ahead would be demanding. But armed with a clear “why,” a strong culture-first mindset, and a willingness to learn from both successes and mistakes, he's been steering Delaware Metals into new markets, upgrading capabilities, and building a younger, highly skilled workforce. We cover everything from the buying process and financing tips, to shop layout improvements, training strategies, and the reality of recruiting in today's tight labor market.

Whether you're dreaming about buying your first shop, preparing to sell yours, or simply looking for leadership inspiration, Scott's story is packed with actionable wisdom. This is about buying a machine shop for all the right reasons—and building a business that lasts. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...

In this conversation, Frazer Rice and PAUL HOOD delve into the evolving role of trustees, particularly in the context of Delaware's new Well-Being Trust Statute. They discuss the broader responsibilities of trustees beyond mere asset management, emphasizing the importance of understanding beneficiaries' needs and the implications of well-being provisions. The dialogue highlights the challenges trustees face in balancing the interests of multiple beneficiaries, the potential liabilities associated with well-being services, and the necessity of having clear processes in place. The conversation concludes with reflections on the complexities of trust management and the importance of careful drafting in trust documents. https://youtu.be/9LFt6HsjpWM https://open.spotify.com/episode/4uqhoeXtfaIIWLbKhd62ej?si=nDTf-09bRSWjT0O_YKX49g Takeaways Trustees have a broader role than just managing assets. The well-being statute in Delaware is an opt-in provision. Balancing the needs of multiple beneficiaries is challenging. A clear process is essential for trustees to navigate their duties. Well-being provisions can complicate traditional trust structures. Trustees must be cautious about the liabilities they assume. Decanting trusts can lead to unintended consequences. The intent of the settlor is paramount in trust management. Trustees should document their decision-making processes. Effective communication with beneficiaries is crucial. Sound bites "I would never opt into 3345.""Decanting is not that easy."

Paul Hood (00:02.648)Great to be with you today. Frazer Rice (00:04.598)The Delaware legislature has tried to give us some new tools to give us a holistic approach to planning for trustees and for beneficiaries. Help us sort of think through first from a function perspective what trustees do. I always thought of it as, you know, they held assets for the benefit of beneficiaries and then with that they have to administer them, they have to invest them, and then they have to distribute them. Have we got that about right? Paul Hood (00:35.34)Well, I've always had a broader view of trustees. Jay Hughes, a good friend and fellow pilgrim in this field, he talks about the trustee as a persons with confidence and like a trainer, an elder, and for a lot of beneficiaries, and I believe trustees, especially in discretionary trusts, The trustee needs to be that. There needs to be some attention to the person of the beneficiary, not just the finances. Send us a budget. The distributions committee who's in secret will meet, and we'll decide how much we'll give you. Well, I think a trustee's duty is broader than that. Or let's say this, you can meet the minimum requirements of being a trustee by doing what you said, but I think the very, very best trustees are persons with confidence. Frazer Rice (01:41.17)I agree with that. The problem is identifying the people who mix the temperament and the talent and then paying for them. So to that end, with those different functions, the world of bifurcation came about. Directed trustees where people got to be good at certain things. Maybe you had a good investment person, you had someone who was with the family who understood the dynamics from a distribution standpoint. and then the administrative side making sure the I's are dotted and the T's are crossed as far as the administration's concern. How do you view that in the evolution of the trustee function? Paul Hood (02:17.612)Well, it's interesting because I haven't been in practice. since well the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina is August 29th of this year....
“When you're in construction, you're just building sticks and bricks—until you understand how a house actually performs.” – Kevin Smith In this episode of RESTalk, Bill sits down with Kevin L. Smith, CEO of Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County, to explore a groundbreaking project: the Bennett Point Phase 1 homes, which earned both ENERGY STAR and DOE Zero Energy Ready Home certifications. Kevin shares how his team collaborated with Energize Delaware and New Ecology to build high-performance, all-electric townhomes aimed at long-term affordability and health for first-time homebuyers. From redesigning floor plans to accommodate advanced HVAC systems to navigating volunteer labor and contractor training, Kevin explains the behind-the-scenes coordination needed to hit ultra-low RESNET® HERS® scores of 33–35—among the best in Delaware without solar. The conversation wraps with reflections on lessons learned, surprises in the process, and guidance for other Habitat affiliates looking to level up their housing mission. Other quotes from our conversation: “We want homeowners to walk into their house confident they can maintain it, save money, and breathe easier—literally and financially.” “A tight house with smart systems isn't just efficient.

I got the idea for this episode talking to a bartender in Prague. The place was empty, and the fellow was garrulous and quickly said he loved American history, which naturally prompted me to suggest a podcast where he could find some. The barkeep called my bluff – “did I know who Augustine Herrman was?” Uh, noooo. It turns out he was a Bohemian – now we would say Czech – from Prague who became one of the wealthiest and most influential men in mid-17th century English and Dutch America, particularly in New Netherland and Maryland. He would live and trade in the early colonies for more than 40 years before his death in Maryland in 1686, and such diverse characters as Pieter Stuyvesant and Lord Baltimore would rely on him for their most sensitive diplomatic matters. Most famously, Herrman would draw the most detailed map of the Chesapeake Bay, at a time when maps were evidence in the settling of disputes between empires. Hermann's map would, among other things, determine the border between Virginia and Maryland on the Eastern Shore, and – through twists and turns – play a role in the establishment of the colony of Delaware. The Czechs are understandably proud of Augustine Herrman, so in gratitude to that bartender and his surprising knowledge of 17th century America, this episode is about Herrman, through the story of his map.

What truly transforms a struggling downtown into a vibrant community centerpiece? After two seasons and 52 episodes of the Main Street Reimagined podcast, a clear pattern has emerged—a recipe for revitalization success that's working across communities of all sizes.In this season finale, host Luke Henry distills the wisdom from dozens of conversations with developers, entrepreneurs, civic leaders, and economic development professionals into three essential ingredients for community transformation. The journey takes listeners through stories of patron developers who took the first risky step in neglected buildings, courageous entrepreneurs who brought unique businesses to life, and public partners who created the infrastructure and support systems needed for sustainable growth.These aren't theoretical concepts but proven strategies implemented by real people in places like Marion, Sandusky, Sidney, Delaware, London, Plain City, McConnellsville, and other Ohio communities experiencing renaissance. Their stories reveal that successful revitalization isn't about massive budgets or corporate takeovers—it's about passionate locals working at what Luke calls "the intersection of for-profit and for-purpose."Beyond the practical aspects of development, the episode explores the human side of community building. Conversations about self-leadership, team building, and maintaining personal well-being provide a holistic view of what it takes to sustain the energy needed for long-term community transformation. The episode highlights how vibrant downtowns ultimately become economic development engines, attracting both tourists and industrial investment by creating the quality of life that talents and companies seek.Whether you're a building owner contemplating your first renovation, an entrepreneur with a vision, a public official seeking strategies, or simply someone who cares about your hometown's future, this episode offers a roadmap tested and proven by those who've successfully walked the path.

From her early days in Philly to a practical pivot to criminal justice and sociology in Delaware, acting wasn't always on Courtney's radar.

This week Steve and Yvonne interview Jordan Strokovsky of Strokovsky LLC (https://actionafterinjury.com/). Remember to rate and review GTP in iTunes: Click Here to Rate and Review View/Download Trial Documents Case Details: Jordan won his client a $30 million recovery against Temple University Hospital in one of the largest medical malpractice cases in Pennsylvania's history. Despite the hospital's denial of wrongdoing, Jordan refused their offer of $3 million and prepared tirelessly for court to ensure a just outcome for his client. The hospital admitted fault and the jury awarded $25.9M to Jordan's Mr. Parks ($6M for future medical costs and $20M for pain and suffering) after a comprehensive investigation and a hard-fought trial. The hospital hired three law firms in an attempt to overturn the verdict and offered a settlement less than the awarded amount. Jordan's client refused to settle, and Jordan won every argument against the big firms. The court refused the hospital's request to reduce the verdict, and $3.7 million in delay damages were added. The total recovery now exceeds $30 million, including over $600,000 in interest. No appeal was filed. Guest Bio: Jordan Strokovsky Jordan Strokovsky is a trial lawyer serving the catastrophically injured in a diverse range of cases, including medical malpractice, birth injury, truck accidents, fires, explosions, plane crashes, premises liability, product liability, workplace injuries, toxic torts, civil rights, car accidents, and sexual assault. His hard work ethic, integrity, and compassion earn him the trust of his clients and the respect of his opponents. These attributes have also helped him obtain significant verdicts and settlements. For good reason, many lawyers refer or seek to co-counsel their serious injury and wrongful death cases with Jordan. Jordan handles countless catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases and routinely handles cases pro bono to help his community. His volunteer work includes taking a civil rights case to verdict with the Volunteer Attorney Panel of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, representing victims of sexual abuse with the Support Center for Child Advocates, and successfully handling various cases from Philadelphia VIP. He has been recognized by the court for his service and was a featured volunteer by Philadelphia VIP. As an animal lover and dog owner, Jordan has also championed animal rights causes, helping establish that pets should not be viewed as property under the law. He also serves on the Pennsylvania Association for Justice Board of Directors and has previously served on boards for non-profits that help animals, homeless people, and refugees. Jordan is the former co-chair of the State Civil Litigation Section of the Philadelphia Bar Association and was proud to help implement town halls at the start of the pandemic, which allowed the court and legal community to communicate during those uncertain times. He now co-chairs both the Civil Rules and Wellness Committees at the bar association. Jordan has served as an adjunct law school professor and occasionally speaks at seminars to other personal injury lawyers. He is also regularly asked by news outlets to provide legal commentary. Jordan graduated from Widener University Delaware Law School as Valedictorian of his class, where several of his professors would comment that his academic performance and mind for the law were among the most impressive they had ever seen. While in school, he interned with three Philadelphia judges: the Honorable M. Faith Angell (E.D. Pa), the Honorable Arnold L. New (Common Pleas), and the Honorable Paul P. Panepinto (Common Pleas) and used these internships as opportunities to get in the courtroom and watch many trials. He was also a member of the Law Review. After his commencement speech at graduation, the Governor of Delaware declared that he would never want to follow Jordan in speaking again. While practicing law full-time, Jordan obtained a Master of Law in Trial Advocacy at the nationally renowned Temple University Beasley School of Law LL.M. Program in the Spring of 2018, where he received special recognition from the faculty for his trial performances and was a jury favorite—earning the highest scores from the jury at his showcase trial.

We open with trading some drunk Delaware stories (and how Ian is sober now), then we talk about a porn star he's dating, coming out as bisexual (and why he doesn't exactly relate to that label), misconceptions about bisexuality, and why people project their judgements on others' lifestyles. We chat about his best friendship with his podcast cohost Jordan, and he shares a story about them fighting on the streets of New York…then we share our own. We also discuss how everyone seems to be so freaky nowadays (but are they really?), and we break down an insane listener question about her fiancé going to Vegas for his bachelor party. Before Ian joins us, we're talking about why dinner dates are the worst dates (just hear us out), the animal encounters we've been having at our houses, and Ashley announces her special taping. Enjoy! Follow Ian on Instagram at @ianimal69 and listen to his podcast Bein' Ian with Jordan. Follow us @girlsgottaeatpodcast, Ashley @ashhess, and Rayna @rayna.greenberg.

I travelled to the middle of the woods, in Wilmington Delaware, to interview recovered alcoholic and heroin addict, Jackass and Viva La Bam star, Brandon Novak.I took an hour long uber, from Philadelphia to get to Bandon's place in Wilmington, Delaware. My Uber driver chatted non stop as eventually we started veering away from civilisation and snaking through tree lined tracks until we approached Brandon's property.Brandon is sat on a bench outside the house as I pull up. He's wearing just a pair of shorts, no shirt, no shoes. I try and read some of the words on his heavily tattooed torso as I walk over.It's clear that he's on a call, so we do that silent hello thing, he daps me up and gives me a hug.I sit down next to him as the call continues. It's gently raining but it's so warm (that sticky American heat) so the sporadic rain drops are actually a relief.He's talking business. ‘Novak's house' is a sober living facility.The business side of helping people sounds intense.The call concludes and we go inside.Brandon had moved into his new digs a week prior. The bones of the house are beautiful. There's a couple of pieces of flatpack furniture yet to be built and art is stacked in front of the walls, ready to be hung.He shows me an incredible, ornate iron cross, salvaged from the ruins of a French church.I meet his cats.We sit down and have the conversation you're about to listen to.I was nervous about this interview. I'm not an addiction expert and I didn't want to focus on Brandon's lowest moments, like a lot of interviewers do.I'm so happy that I made that decision and this is a conversation that I'm really proud of.Find out more about Brandon's and his work - Brandonnovak.com To hear more, visit creativerebels.substack.com
A Pukwudgie, translated as "little wild man of the woods that vanishes", is a human-like creature of Wampanoag folklore, found in Delaware, Prince Edward Island, and parts of Indiana and Massachusetts, sometimes said to be two to three feet tall. According to legend, Pukwudgies can appear and disappear at will, shapeshift, lure people to their deaths, use magic, launch poison arrows, and create fire. Do these mysterious magical creatures of Native American lore actually exist? Walk with Joel through the forests of the Bridgewater Triangle as he uncovers the mystifying creatures called the Pukwudgies. He looks at the mythologies surrounding the Fae and if that concept is the precursor to the mysterious little creatures of Native American stories. Lastly, Joel explores some modern encounters with the elusive little entities and how they interact with people of today's era.

The Question That Changed Everything SLAT vs ILIT for High Net Worth Estate Planning isn't just a legal distinction—it's a strategic decision that could determine how well your wealth serves your family, both now and for generations to come. https://www.youtube.com/live/CzyssnZbzD0 We were deep into a conversation with Andrew Howell, one of the foremost estate planning attorneys in the country, when he casually dropped a statement that made us pause: "I haven't drafted a new ILIT in over a decade." Wait… what? For those of us in the world of estate strategy, that kind of remark is the equivalent of a mic drop. And that's when we knew: the conversation around trusts and legacy planning has shifted in a fundamental way. He wasn't saying ILITs are obsolete—but that SLATs have become the preferred vehicle for families who want more than just a tax shelter. They want flexibility, values-based guidance, and multigenerational control. That one sentence reframed everything we thought we knew about irrevocable trust structures—and gave us a deeper commitment to educating families about their options. Why This MattersWhat Is a SLAT (Spousal Lifetime Access Trust)?What Is an ILIT (Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust)?SLAT vs ILIT for High Net Worth Estate PlanningAccess to FundsEstate Tax EfficiencyControl and FlexibilityLong-Term Legacy PotentialHow Dynasty Trusts Multiply the ImpactWhat This Means for YouBook A Strategy Call Why This Matters If you're a high net worth individual navigating the estate planning world, you already know: it's not just about minimizing taxes. It's about maximizing impact. You want your wealth to do more than sit in a trust. You want it to: Empower your family. Pass on your values. Stay protected from taxes, lawsuits, and family fragmentation. Serve as a guiding structure for generational growth. That's what today's article is about. We're unpacking SLAT vs ILIT for high net worth estate planning so you can: Understand the pros and cons of each structure. Learn how each trust operates in real-life scenarios. Discover which strategy aligns with your long-term legacy goals and family dynamics. And if you missed our previous post, The Pros and Cons of an ILIT, that's a must-read companion to this piece. It sets the stage for why SLATs are now stealing the spotlight. The stakes are too high to leave this decision to a boilerplate legal plan or a one-size-fits-all document. You deserve a legacy plan as unique and dynamic as the family you're building it for. Let's get into it. What Is a SLAT (Spousal Lifetime Access Trust)? Bruce and I have seen this firsthand: a SLAT is one of the most powerful tools for families who want access, flexibility, and control—while also removing assets from their estate. With a SLAT, you gift assets into an irrevocable trust for your spouse's benefit. This removes those assets (and any future growth) from your estate, reducing estate taxes and creating protection from creditors. But here's the real magic: Your spouse can access the trust assets during their lifetime. You (the grantor) can indirectly benefit from those assets. You can build in trust protectors, distribution trustees, and managers for increased control and long-term accountability. And here's where it gets even more powerful—many families are using SLATs as the foundation for their Family Bank strategy. That means the trust isn't just a vault—it's a lending institution. Your children or grandchildren can borrow from the trust to: Start a business Purchase a first home Fund their education But unlike a handout, these loans come with terms, accountability, and stewardship expectations. It's not entitlement—it's training. It's a way to extend trust and responsibility. Andrew emphasized that in states like Nevada, South Dakota, and Delaware, the flexibility of SLATs increases even more.

Until recently, Delaware was almost universally agreed to be the best place for companies to incorporate. Now, with Elon Musk leading a corporate stampede out of the First State, we revisit an episode from 2023 that asked if Delaware's “franchise” is wildly corrupt, wildly efficient … or both?
