Stock Trading
lemieux22 asked:


I am married and thinking of opening an on-line stock trading account. My wife won’t ever access the account to make trades because she leaves the finances to me. That being said, should I make the account individual or joint?

If I make it joint, which should it be:

Joint Tenants with Rights of Survivorship (JTWROS) - Upon the death of an account holder, his or her interest in the account passes to the surviving owners.

OR

Joint Tenants in Common (JTIC) - Upon the death of an account holder, his or her interest passes to his or her estate.

The exact same situation all our trading accounts are joint with rights of survivorship it simply makes things whole lot easier for her if needed.
