[READER QUESTION] 'I am a 77-year-old widower & inherited R800 000 from my late husband’s living annuity. I wish to create a legacy for my grandchildren. Is there a better investment than an endowment?' Francois le Clus from attooh responds. Moneyweb

I am a 77-year-old widower and inherited R800 000 from my late husband’s living annuity. I do not need those funds for daily or emergency needs, but I would like to put them away for a five-year period or longer. Would an endowment be the best investment instrument even though my tax rate is well below 30%? Is there a better investment that matches my risks? I think it’s very important to understand that an endowment is an investment vehicle with a specific tax structure and estate implications.

Endowments are taxable in the hands of the investment life company and taxable at a rate of 30%. This investment vehicle can be used for estate planning purposes as you can nominate beneficiaries for ownership or proceeds in the event of your death. Your grandchildren can become the owners of the policy in the event of your death and proceed with the investment or the money can be paid out to them.

attooh As a mother of two kids I have battled alot with my financial state to the point of begging from friends just to survive, until I started Bitcoin trading with the help of Allison_Grillo I made a successful withdrawal of R 200,000 with the help of Allison_Grillo.

attooh I always hated bitcoin and thought it was a scam, till I met ALLISON_GRILLO , I made my first successful withdrawal of $70,000 thanks to ALLISON_GRILLO now am financially stable.
