make low earning spouse eligible for spousal benefit• High earning spouse immediately suspends own benefit

to earn delayed credits until age 70

“Claim now, claim more later”• High earning spouse claims spousal benefit at age 66 • Low earning spouse filed for own benefit (at FRA)• High earning spouse switches to own benefit at age 70

Glossary of Terms

529 plan is a tax-advantaged investment vehicle in the United States designed to encourage saving for the future higher education expenses of a

designated beneficiary. It is named after section 529 of the Internal Revenue Code. The detailed behavior of 529 plans is determined by state

legislation, and while most plans allow investors from out of state, there can be significant state tax advantages and other benefits, such as

matching grant and scholarship opportunities, protection from creditors and exemption from state financial aid calculations, for investors who invest

in 529 plans within their state of residence.

Donor-Advised Fund is a charitable giving vehicle set up under the tax umbrella of a public charity, which acts as sponsor to many Funds.

Private Family Foundation has an endowment fund with which it invests and then uses the investment returns to fund public charities. If a private

foundation does not invest in public charities then the private foundation may directly perform the function of a public charity by using the

investment returns as the funding.

Private Operating Foundation is any private foundation that spends at least 85% of its adjusted net income or its minimum investment return,

whichever is less, directly for the active conduct of its exempt activities. Certain private foundations that provide long-term care facilities are treated

as operating foundations only for the purposes of the excise tax on failure to distribute income.

A Qualified Terminal Interest Property Trust or “QTIP” is an irrevocable trust that is created at the death of the grantor, often in conjunction with a

Credit Shelter Trust. It can be drafted to preclude the surviving spouse from appointing the remainder to a second spouse or children from a second

marriage.

Roth 401(K) is a type of employer-sponsored retirement plan that allows a worker to save for retirement on a post-tax elective deferral basis.

Supporting organization is a public charity created by the U.S. Internal Revenue Code in 26 USCA 509(a)(3). A supporting organization either

makes grants to, or performs the operations of, a public charity similar to a private foundation.

Traditional 401(K) is a type of employer-sponsored retirement plan that allows a worker to save for retirement while deferring income taxes on the

saved money and earnings until withdrawal. All assets in 401(k) plans are tax deferred.

UGMA/UTMA state laws that allow any adult to contribute to a custodian account in a minor child's name without having to name a legal guardian or

establish a trust.
