A ? for my coupled friends

I'm pretty sure SCOTUS will go after Obergefel soon. The 2013 case Windsor v United States was based in taxation & property.

Have any of you couples incorporated your assets, a home, an retirement acct, kids into a trust so the state/Feds/hateful family cannot go after the (kids) & surviving spouse?

For the record, I Am Not A Lawyer

BTW may Alito suffer

My message to all LGBTQ+ youth:

Be you.
You are loved.
You are heard.
You are understood.
You belong.

And we have your back.

... much like a business partnership.

Also make wills that name each other *without* explicit mention of the relationship.

This advice is what we did before there was any hint of same sex marriage being allowed (early 1980s).
