Abstract: One central theme of the recent Tax Act is that most will be taxed at a lower rate which means they will keep more of their income.  Most individual tax payers will see a reduction in their personal income tax, and from a planning perspective there will be an ongoing focus on self-reliance for retirement savings. For wealth transfer, the gift and estate exclusion amounts have been temporarily increased which provides for enormous planning and gifting options.  Income Tax Rates for C Corps and exemptions for Pass Throughs Business owners have changed, leaving more of their income for planning opportunities for both the owners and key employees.
