Gus (age 84) and Belle (age 18) are married early in the year. Late in the same year, Belle confronts Gus about his failure to transfer to her the considerable amount of property he previously promised. Gus reassures Belle that she will receive the property when he dies. Because the transfer occurs at death, the estate tax martial deduction will avoid any Federal transfer taxes at the time. Comment on the issues involved and any misconceptions Gus may have.
