    Hi,

    I was hoping to get some assistance with and understanding of how I can use my Family Trust.

    I have some trailing commission that I was thinking of running through my Family Trust. The trust was originally in place to hold the shares of a company I owned and disbursement of income. It has pretty much been dormant for some time.

    Effectively I want a mechanism to receive the commissions then disburse the funds. Hoping someone may be able to explain the pros and cons of this approach over any other.

    Thanks.
