Fouss is not a rim runner that KY primarily runs in his offense from the 5 spot.

blueaussie

The provider Geico uses requires 300/300. It cost me $270/year for $1M umbrella.

100/300 minimum but preferably 250/500 or higher.

There's enough ambulance chaser lawyer ads on TV now to make anybody think

We do minimum on autos and house with an umbrella policy to cover excess liability

Where do you get an umbrella with state minimum limits on your home and auto?

blueaussie

Prob meant minimum needed to get the umbrella.

That would make sense.

Yes, that's right. Use State Farm. Whatever we had to do to qualify for umbrella, which we should probably increase.

Yes, if you have any assets, you definitely should. Umbrellas are cheap coverage

cougar95

It's federal, not state.

When the first spouse dies the surviving spouse gets a 1/2 step up.

This is not true if it is CP.

Jeremy

3:18pm

If CP, then full fair market value on the date of the spouse's death

Jeremy

That is is my understanding as well. CA is a community property state so

bdizzle

All property is either CP or SP regardless of title.

"Unless the instrument of transfer expressly provides otherwise"

dratax

2001 CA law: JTWROS= 50% step up and CPWROS=100% step up. JT is not community

Not really. They paid property taxes on it for almost 50 years
