Dear peterK50, Ladies and Gentlemen; I have to say, that I do agree with you. I would strongly advise an Revokable Trust, to where you have yourself as Trustee. Then you can designate who will be co-trustee, when you no longer are able to manage your affairs, to include the property. You have the power and control of said property until your unable, such as stroke, heart attack and don't have a sound mind or be able to speak for yourself and or death. As far as slavery being illegal in the USA, that is correct. However "Indenture" is still enforceable by law. That is why some of us do not draw up a 'slave' contract but, a contract of Indenture. It will be held up in any court, as it is an agreement, a treaty, a bond, a contract and or a deal. Something to be mindful of, as this was used to still 'enslave' individuals in a different manner, used in the Colonial period and to this day. I do agree that everybody in negotiations regardless of dominant and or submissive, keep their finances out of the clutches of another's control. It use to be where dominants put excess money from a slave's paycheck (when it was male dominant/female dominant) relationships; into a Trust fund/Escro account in her name. Back in the 1970's all men took care of the women in the scene. Not all women still have equal pay for same jobs and it was far worse in the 1970's. Male slaves did give their Mistresses an allowance and set it up into a Trust/Escro account, as to provide for them but--they never gave up full control, unless they wanted to. This goes for the female slaves as well--they could give a portion of their income to the dominant--it all was negotiated; never automatic and--It must be tailored to the current/future needs of both individuals. There are different protocols that are out there; some are dungeon protocols, social protocols and personal/relationship protocols. Protocols establish rules, etiquette if you will in how to behave and what is tolerated and not. Respectfully submitted for consideration, Lady Hugs
