Shemar and Jordan are cousins who were both born on the same day, and both turned 25 today. Their grandfather began putting $2,900 per year into a trust fund for Shemar on his 20th birthday, and he just made a 6th payment into the fund. The grandfather (or his estate's trustee) will make 40 more $2,900 payments until a 46th and final payment is made on Shemar's 65th birthday. The grandfather set things up this way because he wants Shemar to work, not be a "trust fund baby," but he also wants to ensure that Shemar is provided for in his old age. Until now, the grandfather has been disappointed with Jordan, hence has not given him anything. However, they recently reconciled, and the grandfather decided to make an equivalent provision for Jordan. He will make the first payment to a trust for Jordan today, and he has instructed his trustee to make 40 additional equal annual payments until Jordan turns 65, when the 41st and final payment will be made.
