피델리티와 쳇을 하던 중에 저도 궁금했어서, 질문해 봤는데.. 이 계좌가 어제 jj pink님이 말씀하신 계좌인것 같아서 알려 드려요.
brokerage account 에 조인트 어카운트를 만들면서 보니, individual account- TOD가 있더라고요. 뭔지는 몰라서 안쓰고 있었는데, 상담원에게 물어본 내용입니다.
I am not familiar with individual account -TOD. Is it different than normal brokerage account?
Its going to be the same as an individual brokerage account. TOD (Transfer on Death) refers to having a beneficiary on file in case of your passing.
except that, everything is same?
You are correct everything is the same.
then, I still don't understand the purpose of tod account. if you have a living trust, the money goes to the beneficiary automatically.
Not all clients have living trusts or even delegate beneficiaries sometimes. You are correct though it is practically the same
