How do you find if a trust fund still exists that your grandfather set up for you when you were born but you were never contacted when he died?
If your grandfather's estate was probated you could go to the court and examine the probate file. You should examine the inventory for bank accounts and also examine the will for any mention of accounts or trusts that were set up for grandchildren. However, a trust may not show up at all in the estate. Check with the attorney who handled the estate. You could also ask your parents if they remember any more details about the trust fund. If they know the name of the law firm that represented him in life, or his bank, perhaps someone there could help you. His attorney may have a copy of a trust instrument. If there was a trust fund set up then there was also a trustee.
Do trust funds run out of money?
Yes, trust funds can run out of money; they can also last indefinitely, depending upon how they are managed and how they are set up. Nobel Prizes are paid for by a trust fund set up by Alfred Nobel; there is no expectation that the fund will run out and that the prizes will cease to be awarded. But funds have to be invested, and investments can do well or badly. And even if the money in a trust fund was invested wisely, that money can still be spent. For example, trust funds are often used to safeguard money for the benefit of people who are not yet adults and who cannot be trusted to spend their money wisely while they are still minors. But once they become adults (or when they reach whatever age is specified by the terms of the trust fund) they then have access to that money and can spend it. And if they can spend it, they can use it up. Of course, you could also devise a fund that only pays the interest on the fund, and never pays out the principal. That kind of fund can potentially last a long time, but again, only if the investment decisions are wise.
