I was wondering if anyone has heard of, and has used a company called The Ark Inc. for their Estate planning.
I look forward to hearing your responses…

Which product are they trying to sell? The CPA mentoring program is too expensive for what they offer. I would change my mind if someone had a realistic chance of using $5K worth of CPA time a year. The preferred LLC is a nice idea, but many of the top AP and tax guys say it won’t work. No one knows for sure until it reaches the tax court or the the Ark provides a PLR. I don’t like the way they use the CRT. It is supposed to be a way to fund a charitable cause, not getting an interest free loan from the gov’t or deferring taxes. Last I check they wanted about $4K to review your estate plan. That’s not a bad idea if it were a credit against work. It is way to much to pay for a few phone calls and set of CDs. They have some good info and doing stuff no one else does, but I think they are too expensive in general.
