This podcast episode delves into advanced estate planning and asset protection strategies for individuals with a net worth of several million dollars, exceeding the basic approaches like LLCs. The discussion features attorney Ethan Okura from Hawaii, covering topics like irrevocable trusts, the implications of the Corporate Transparency Act, and handling of beneficiary ownership agreement forms despite legal disputes. It also touches upon the psychology of predicting economic recessions, the merits of investing in gold, real estate vs. stock investments, and the nuances of real estate's economic impact. Moreover, the episode explores complex estate planning tools, including various types of irrevocable trusts designed for tax benefits and asset protection, strategies for avoiding gift tax, and the value of generational skipping trusts. Insights on handling estate taxes, probate vs. trust benefits, and considerations for special circumstances like non-citizen spouses or disability trust provisions are also discussed. The importance of financial education, passing values along with wealth to prevent mismanagement by future generations, and the potential of a dynasty trust to maintain family wealth across generations are highlighted.00:27 Understanding the Corporate Transparency Act02:05 Predicting Recessions and Investment Strategies03:10 Real Estate vs Stocks: A Comparative Analysis04:41 The Challenges and Rewards of Being a Landlord05:32 Exploring Commercial Real Estate Opportunities06:16 Invitation to Connect and Learn More06:31 Deep Dive into Estate Planning with Ethan Okura07:52 Understanding Probate and the Importance of Trusts13:06 The Intricacies of Irrevocable Trusts20:59 The Role of Settlor, Trustee, and Beneficiary in Trusts25:05 Exploring Different Types of Trusts34:50 Understanding Different Types of Trusts35:31 Exploring the Concept of Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust36:45 The Role of Trusts in Estate Planning37:13 The Importance of Grantor Trusts38:10 Tax Implications of Trusts39:24 Strategies for Asset Transfer and Tax Avoidance41:12 Understanding Estate Taxes42:12 The Impact of Changing Estate Tax Exemptions51:06 Planning for Incapacity and Long-Term Care57:56 The Power of Generation Skipping Trusts01:01:38 Final Thoughts on Estate Planning and Trusts Hosted on Acast.

La capital de la prefectura de Hokkaido, la más septentrional de las islas de Japón, es una ciudad joven. Sapporo nació en 1869, fruto del plan de colonización ideado durante la era Meiji. Para su construcción se requirieron los servicios de arquitectos y consejeros estadounidenses y europeos, lo que explica el estilo occidental de la mayoría de sus edificios históricos. Nuestro paseo comienza en el céntrico parque Odori, sede principal del célebre Festival de la Nieve, de la mano de una pareja de pianistas: la japonesa Atsuko Shimada y el español Juan Galiardo. Nos acompañan además tres guías oficiales de de la zona: Hiromi Asada, Hajime Okada e Hiroko Suzuki. Visitamos el ayuntamiento, la torre del reloj, subimos al mirador de la Torre JR y a los montes Okura y Moiwa. Con el director de la oficina nacional de turismo de Japón para España (JNTO), Hajime Kishi, accedemos a la primitiva factoría de la cerveza Sapporo, hoy convertida en museo de la famosa marca. También nos acercamos al museo dedicado a la cultura aborigen de la isla, el pueblo ainu, y visitamos la Villa Histórica de Hokkaido. Por último, después de conocer la costa en la cercana ciudad portuaria de Otaru, el experto en turismo de nieve Juan Carlos Pérez repasa los mejores lugares para la práctica del esquí, deporte que vive una interminable edad dorada desde los Juegos Olímpicos de Invierno de 1972, los del oro de Paquito Fernández Ochoa.

Translation - Pastor Ichibei Honda 通訳 - 本多一米牧師 先週、テキサスの小学校で起きた事件を思う時に心が押しつぶされそうです。これまで私はいつも子供達を学校にドロップオフする時に「今晩、彼らと食卓を囲むことができるように」と祈り続けてきました。私は戦場に子供をドロップオフしているのではないのです。 私達はいつ自らの命を失うのか分からない異常な世界に生きています。主にある皆さん、最近、愛する者達を抱きしめましたか。あなたと共にいることができて嬉しいと、その気持ちを言い表していますか。彼らのアルバムの中にあなたはいますか。あなたの笑顔が彼らのアルバムの中にありますか。 明日のことが分からぬ人生。限りある人生。その中で私達がすべきことは多くはありません。彼らを愛し、彼らに愛される生涯、彼らとの思い出を一つでも多く、心に持つ。彼らの思い出の片隅に自分を置いてもらう、私達を思い起こす人達が笑顔になってくれる、そんな思い出を一つ、そして、また一つ作ることができたら、これ以上、この人生に何を求めましょうか。

通訳 Translation - 本多 一米 牧師 Pastor Ichibei Honda 『あなたは義に過ぎてはならない。また賢きに過ぎてはならない。あなたはどうして自分を滅ぼして よかろうか』(伝道の書7章16節) 去る9月、さいとうたかおという漫画家が亡くなりました。この方の代表作に「ゴルゴ13」という作品があります。この漫画の主人公は東郷デュークといい、彼はスナイパーとして裏社会に生き、日本のみならず、世界中から仕事を請け負います。そんな彼にある日、ある国の「軍事顧問にならないか」というオファーがきます。それは「国の秩序や正義が他国によって侵害されている。それを守るために力になってくれないか」というオファーです。その時に東郷はこんな言葉を言います・・・。『その“正義”とやらはお前達だけの正義じゃないのか?』(『ゴルゴ13』148巻より引用)
通訳 Translation - 本多 一米 牧師 Pastor Ichibei Honda ある父親に四人の息子がいました。父はその子達に遠くの地に生えている梨の木を見てくるようにと、最初の息子は冬に、二番目は春に、三番目は夏に、四番目は秋に送り出し、それぞれがそこに生える同じ木を見て、帰ってきました。父は四人を呼び、見てきたものについて一人一人の話を聞きました。 冬に行った息子は言いました「私が見た梨の木には葉が一つもなく、その姿は醜く、ところどころの枝が折れていました」。春に行った息子は、その言葉が信じられないように「自分が見た木には一面、新緑が覆われていて、その木はやがてくる約束で満ちていた」と言いました。夏に行った息子は、その通りだと言わんばかりに「自分の見た木にはたわわに実がなり、甘い香りがし、木は命で満ち溢れていた」と言いました。秋に行った息子は「緑の葉」ということが理解できないかのように、「その木には実などはなく、しかし、その葉は真っ赤で、しかし、その葉は次々と地に落ちていっていた、ある意味、その木は大切な役目を成し 遂げたような姿だった」と言いました。 四人の話しを聞いていた父は彼らに言いました。「お前達の見た光景はどれも全て正しい。お前達が見た木は全く同じもので、その木の中に全ての季節があったのだ」と言い、さらにこう言いました。「お前達は自分の一つの季節だけに捕らわれて、結論を出してはいけない。もし、お前が冬にギブアップしたら、春の約束、夏の美しさ、秋の収穫を見ることはできない」・・・。
通訳 Translation - 本多 一米 牧師 Pastor Ichibei Honda 『私達は「おもしろきことなき世をおもしろく」というテーマのもと、伝道の書から御言葉をみています。今日はその伝道の書2章1節から11節を見ていきたいと思います。ここには主に三つのことが書かれています。すなわち「酒」と「仕事」、そして「異性」について書かれています。 そこからうかがい知れますことは、かつてソロモンは自らを元気づけようと酒を求め、生きがいを見つけようと大きな事業を成し、人生を楽しもうと女性を求めたということです。 このソロモンの言葉は今から約3000年も前のものですが、人は今も変わらず、同じことに関心を抱いているということは、説明するまでもありません。特にコロナ下において、極度にストレスフルな日々を送っている私達は、現実から逃れられる一時の慰めや刺激を求めようとすることがあるかもしれません。今日は伝道の書を通して、そんな私達の足元を確認したいと思います。

通訳 - 本多 一米 牧師 Translation - Pastor Ichibei Honda 『ドラゴン桜』という漫画があり、ドラマにもなりました。元暴走族の弁護士・桜木建二が経営破綻状態となった「落ちこぼれ高校」と呼ばれている高校の運営を請け負うこととなり、経営を回復するために進学実績を上げようと、5年後に東大合格者100人を出す計画を考案するというドラマです。 なぜこの異色の教師が生徒たちに「東大に行け」というのかといいますと「東大卒の者達が日本の官僚となり、この国のルールを作っているからだ」と彼はいいます。少々、無理のある論理ですが、確かに「ルールを造るものがその場を治める」ということはあながち間違ってはいないと思われます。桜木はこの国のルール、すなわち法律を作る者達が日本を治めていくのだと生徒に語っているのです(その方達が本当に相応しいかどうかは別として・・・)。 それでは「万物のルール」を造られたのは誰なのでしょうか。そう、その存在を私達は「神」と呼んでいます。その神はこの世界の万物の法則に対して、どのように向き合えばいいのかを知り尽くしており、その御思いが書かれているものが、私達の手元にあります「聖書」なのです。そうです、そこには私達に必要不可欠な「真の知恵」が書かれているのです。
English Translation 英語通訳 - Pastor Ichibei Honda 本多 一米 牧師 かつて幕末の時代、高杉晋作という侍がいました。彼は奇兵隊という武士と庶民から成る部隊を組み、外国艦隊からの攻撃に備え、江戸幕府との戦いに臨みました。しかし、その彼は28歳の若さで結核により亡くなり、その病床で「おもしろきことなき世をおもしろく」という辞世の句を詠みました。 高杉のこの詩に私達は深い共感を覚えます。外国の脅威を受け、幕府の圧政のもとに暮らし、その志(こころざし)半ば、28歳の若さで、倒れてしまう人生、それは「おもしろくない人生」と私達には思われます。しかし、高杉はその自分の人生を受け止め、その人生を「俺はおもしろく生きてきたぞ」と最期に詠ったのでしょう。 私達は今もコロナという「おもしろくないもの」に向き合っています。これから、この先も私達の向かう先に何が待ち構えているのか私達は知りえません。生きていくことは大変なことです。「生きていこう」という思いを持ち続けることが難しい時もあります。「よかった」と思うのも束の間、次には「どうしたらいいのだ」ということの連続、それが人生です。 そして、このことは今、始まったことではなく、古の昔から人はこの思いを抱えて生きてきました。聖書の中には高杉のように自分の人生に対して「おもしろくないな」と何度もつぶやいた人が出てきます。その彼は「伝道の書」という書を私達の手元に残しました。これからの日曜日、この伝道の書から「おもしろきことなき世をおもしろく」というテーマのもと、メッセージを取り次がせていただきます。
Translation 通訳 - Pastor Ichibei Honda 本多 一米 牧師 Zoomになり、スーツが売れなくなったと言われています。そうでしょう、それを着て出社したり、セールスに出たり、結婚式すらも制限されたのですから。オンラインのビジネスミーティングに出席する時に、上着だけボタンシャツを着て、下は半ズボンという方達がきっと大勢いたことでしょう。 教会と自宅の往復の時間に小一時間かかる方もいるでしょう。それに比べ、オンライン礼拝はベッドルームから歩いて10秒あれば出席できます。その気楽さを喜んでいる方もいるかもしれません。しかし、今日はあえて「私達は教会に戻らなければならない」ということをお話します。
I think our guest is a translator! Oh, who am I kidding? You already know he is! Leo McDonagh is a multimedia translator who's worked on innumerable projects, including two incredible standout queer manga, Okura's heartwarming I Think Our Son is Gay and Keito Gaku's empowering Boys Run the Riot! It's a rare occasion that two remarkable and resonant queer manga such as these both come out within weeks of each other, much less sharing the same translator, and we really wanted to celebrate the occasion by spotlighting these works and getting Leo's intimate insights on them! Leo shares his career journey as a translator, and his perspective on both series as their translator and as a gay transman who can appreciate and relate with both series in different ways. We talk in-depth about how both works explore and speak to real-world struggles queer youth face with optimism and encouragement, defying heteronormative social structures with community and validation, and how resonant and important these messages are for young queer readers and are so cathartic to older queer readers who can relate with these experiences. There's a lot to love about these series, and we had a wonderful time discussing them with Leo. There's no shame in our game, it's a riot!

Als tiener kwam Mark Reiman in het speciaal onderwijs terecht. Hier werd hem snel duidelijk dat als hij zijn gedrag zou aanpassen hij veel meer kon dan tot dan toe naar voren kwam. Als bijbaantje kwam hij in de horeca terecht en ging studeren aan de Middelbare Hotelschool. Hier ontwikkelde hij een passie voor hospitality. Tijdens zijn stages kwam hij erachter dat als hij hard genoeg werkte, het ook echt werd gewaardeerd. Hij kreeg stage kansen bij grote namen zoals het Krasnapolsky en het Okura hotel in Amsterdam en tijdens zijn studie aan de Hogere Hotelschool ook nog bij de Librije. Mooie namen voor op zijn CV. Aan het einde van zijn studietijd kreeg zijn vriendin (die inmiddels zijn vrouw is), die dezelfde studie deed, de kans om stage te lopen op Aruba. Dat was het moment dat Mark ervoor koos om met haar mee te gaan en in de horeca te gaan werken op dit prachtige eiland. Na bijna 3 jaar was het tijd om terug te gaan naar Nederland. Daar vond hij vrij snel een goede baan bij een hotel in Apeldoorn, maar ondertussen had hij wel de wens om zelfstandig te ondernemen, maar nog geen concreet idee. Totdat hij via zijn schoonvader in aanraking kwam met 2 projectontwikkelaars die de soutterain beschikbaar hadden van een voormalige bank met ook echt de bankkluizen er nog in, in het hart van Apeldoorn. Ze hadden ideeën om van die locatie een plek te maken waar ondernemend Apeldoorn elkaar kon treffen, maar die ideeën wilden ze niet zelf uitwerken, dus ze waren op zoek naar een jonge ondernemer die in dit avontuur wilde stappen. Die ondernemer werd Mark en dat is het begin van City Lounge Apeldoorn. Mark vertelt in dit interview uitgebreid hoe hij van voormalige bankkluizen een prachtige meeting & event locatie heeft gemaakt. Daarnaast vertelt hij over het leven van 2 ondernemers, zijn vrouw is namelijk ook ondernemer, die binnenkort hun eerste kindje verwachten. Hoe gaan ze om met financieel lastige momenten, hoe houden ze vertrouwen en wanneer vieren ze de mooie momenten? Luister snel naar deze aflevering! Wil je meer weten over Mark en/of zijn bedrijf City Lounge Apeldoorn, neem een kijkje op zijn website of volg hem via zijn social media: https://www.citylounge.nl/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-reiman-523236a/ https://www.instagram.com/citylounge.apeldoorn/ https://www.facebook.com/cityloungeapeldoorn/

Koffie, goed of slecht? Meer of minder? Ik zit aan tafel met brander, connaisseur, biohacker en allround koffienerd Jeroen Brugman. Jeroen houdt zich bezig met zowel de functionele aspecten van koffie, performance, focus, gezondheid, maar ook met hoe je gewoon een damn tasty bakkie maakt. Hij demonstreert dit zelfs live in de podcast. Koffie produceren doet hij voor veeleisende klanten zoals het Okura hotel, maar voor zichzelf zet hij ook gewoon een bulletproof koffie met adaptogene kruiden. Hij leert me welke koffie je moet vermijden als je geen schimmels en trillende handjes wil hebben, wat je kan toevoegen aan koffie om het nog effectiever te maken, kortom hoe je koffie als de ultieme legale performance enhancing substance kan gebruiken. Dus schenk jezelf een bakkie in en ga er eens lekker voor zitten.

Scott Adamson joins us to talk about Tomatin for the second time in the Bar Jackalope! He's brought all new stories about the distillery along with four fantastic drams!--What we drank:Tomatin DualchisTomatin 12 YearTomatin 14 YearTomatin 18 Year--Follow us:spiritguidesocietypodcast.comfacebook.com/spiritguidesoctwitter.com/spiritguidesocinstagram.com/spiritguidesochttps://www.youtube.com/c/SpiritGuideSociety--From the Tomatin Website:Whisky production has been central to the way of life in this area most probably since the 15th century and certainly since 1897 when the first formal distillery on the site was established - the settlement of Tomatin was formed only as result of the wealth created by the distillery. The origins of whisky production in Tomatin are hard to be precise about - the formal distillery which operates today was established in 1897 but there is reason to believe that whisky production, albeit illegal, has been an important part of life in the area around Tomatin since the 1700s. The name itself gives an insight into this secret past: “Tomatin” translates to “Hill of the Juniper Bush”, as juniper wood gives off no smoke while burning it has long been a favourite of illicit distillers who must keep their practice secret. Today, a building known locally as “The Old Laird's House” still remains on the site of the current distillery and it is believed that this is the spot where the cattle drovers taking their livestock from the north of Scotland to the central markets would stop and fill their flasks from an illicit still. However, it was only in 1897 at the peak of the Victorian Whisk Boom that three men, John MacDougall, John MacLeish and Alexander Allan, along with a handful of investors, decided to open a formal distillery on the site and form The Tomatin Spey District Distillery Ltd.The chosen location may have been inspired by the history of illicit distillation on the site, however, despite being very isolated (Tomatin is over 1000 feet above sea level on the eastern edge of the Monadhliath Mountains), it was also a very practical location; next to a newly opened rail line, not far from a market- it lies just over 18 miles south of Inverness - and on the Alt na Frith (meaning ‘free burn') which provided a perfect source for soft, Highland water.Eighty per cent of our employees still live on site in the distillery houses, so working at Tomatin is more than just a job for our employees; it is a way of life. This in turn is reflected in the quality of whisky produced; every bottle of whisky we make is distilled with pride. The isolated location was perfect in almost every way, the only thing it couldn't offer was a workforce. So when construction at the distillery begun, the architect was instructed to build a number of houses to accommodate distillery workers. Over the years the number of houses onsite began to grow as did the distillery itself and there are now 30 houses on site which Tomatin continues to offer to its employees. At this time in 1897, demand for ‘Scotch' seemed to be unquenchable with more distilleries (eleven) being built in this year than any other while total production had been increasing significantly for some time.In 1956 the original two stills, which were capable of producing 120, 000 proof gallons, were joined by another pair. Only 2 years later another two stills were added. Once full capacity was realised it was again time to increase potential output and 1961 saw the total still count reaching 5 pairs with another single still joining them in 1964. 1974 saw the most significant boost to capacity with the total number of stills reaching 23 (12 wash and 11 spirit) requiring seven spirit safes and with the capacity to produce around 12 million litres of alcohol every year. At this time Tomatin was the largest distillery in Scotland. During this period Tomatin was considered amongst the most important producers in the market place and one of the few distillers to offer their make as a single malt - initially a 5yo then also at 10yo. The vast majority of the whisky made at Tomatin was sold in bulk to third party companies and was used in many famous blended whiskies such as J&B, Chivas Regal and Johnnie Walker. The success and size of Tomatin was, however, also its demise with the bust of the 1980s - retail sales of blended whisky decreased, and so did demand for Tomatin, forcing the company into liquidation for a second time. In the 20 years prior to going into liquidation the growing export of Scotch Whisky meant that Tomatin's biggest customer was Japan's largest drinks producer - TakaraShuzo Ltd. As Tomatin was forced into liquidation in 1984, Takara Shuzo joined forces with the respected trading company Okura and purchased the distillery, forming the Tomatin Distillery Company Ltd and thus creating the first fully Japanese owned Scottish distillery in 1986. Since that time, the focus has changed and the distillery has gone from strength to strength. There has been a change in strategy to grow the Tomatin brand in its own right. The range of single malts is currently sold in over 50 export markets, with additional markets being added all the time.

If you experience any technical difficulties with this video or would like to make an accessibility-related request, please send a message to digicomm@uchicago.edu. Kyogen is Japan's oldest form of theatre. It is closely associated with Noh drama and was originally performed between the acts of Noh theatre. But while Noh themes are mostly solemn, Kyogen presents a comical or satirical view of everyday situations. Orginating from the Muramachi Period of the 14th Century, the humorous stories in Kyogen theatre are derived from typical domestic quarrels and situations. The Shigeyama family has been performing Kyogen for over 400 years. During their North American tour, with shows at the Smithsonian Freer Gallery in Washington D.C. and at the University of Chicago's International House, the Okura School will perform "Kaki Yamabushi" (the Persimmon Theif). "Kusabira" (Mushrooms) and "Sanbaso" (Fertility, Good Harvest and New Year).
