Nobody wants to come back from the dead poor.⁠ ⁠ Luckily for the rich, making wealth immortal is more solvable than reversing death.⁠ ⁠ Estate attorneys are creating trusts aimed at extending wealth until people who get cryonically preserved can be revived, even if it’s hundreds of years later. These revival trusts are an emerging area of law built on a tower of assumptions. Still, they’re being taken seriously enough to attract true believers and merit discussion at industry conferences.⁠ ⁠ “The idea of cryopreservation has gone from crackpot to merely eccentric,” said Mark House, an estate lawyer who works with Scottsdale, Ariz.-based Alcor Life Extension Foundation, the world’s largest cryonics facility with 1,400 members and about 230 people already frozen. “Now that it’s eccentric, it’s kind of in vogue to be interested in it.”⁠ ⁠ By one estimate, about 5,500 people are planning for cryogenic preservation. House estimates he’s worked with about 100 such people.⁠ ⁠ He and others are trying to answer questions that at times seem more like prompts in a philosophy class.⁠ ⁠ Can money live indefinitely?⁠ ⁠ Are you dead if your body is cryonically preserved?⁠ ⁠ Are you considered revived if you have only your brain?⁠ ⁠ And if you’re revived, are you the same person?⁠ ⁠ Read more from Erin Schilling: https://lnkd.in/efT2CJyy ⁠ Graphics: Jonathan Hurtarte

The IRS’s most controversial regulations are more vulnerable to litigation after the US Supreme Court overturned a legal doctrine empowering federal regulators, as companies and individuals seek a fair shake from the agency. The ruling is expected to prompt a stream of litigation in areas—ranging from syndicated conservation easements to health insurance subsidies—where the Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Department of the Treasury stretched their regulatory authority and are already facing court challenges. Other contentious issues such as President Joe Biden’s tax-and-climate law or the agency’s own electronic filing system also could be exposed to new litigation, attorneys said. “Companies don’t like to take a position contrary to a regulation, but now it may make sense to do so in a wider range of circumstances,” David Noren, a partner at McDermott Will & Emery, said.

EY will reset base salaries for its accounting recruits starting this fall with pay raises of more than 10%, the Big Four firm said. EY also plans to keep increasing starting salaries for two additional years as well as boost pay for other early-career accountants. The higher wages are part of a $1 billion, three-year commitment by EY to attract and train incoming accountants for the artificial intelligence era. Bigger paychecks from firms like EY that dominate the market will set the pace for higher wages across the industry, pressuring mid-tier and even smaller regional firms to step up and boost their entry-level pay.

This year's forum focused on practical takeaways from the process of implementing OECD Tax's two Pillar approach, which introduced significant changes to international tax rules for multinational companies. "With over 130 countries agreeing to significant changes aimed at curbing tax competition and cross-border avoidance, this Forum is timely for multinationals and their advisors, who are seeking to understand these reforms and determine how to effectively comply with them," said Bloomberg Tax President Lisa Fitzpatrick.
