From: Valeria Chomsky To: "Jeffrey E." <[email protected]> Subject: Fwd: taxes Date: Mon, 03 Jul 2017 12:06:48 +0000 Dear Jeffrey, We don't have the trust document. I am going to ask Noam to request it. The whole situation is extremely unfair to Noam. Noam hasn't been receiving anything from the trust, nor has he been informed if they are depositing the interest of the trust in some account that we are not aware of. Noam understands that he has rights as well to the principal of the trust, and requested money only to pay half of the taxes to not have to take 200k from the IRA (income taxes have been paid from the IRA, besides all our expenses, increasing the withdrawals from the IRA), but the condition the children established (one of them as the trustee) to give Noam any access to the marital trust is that he has to disclose all our financial life to them, something that Noam totally opposes and me too. Our lawyer tried to obtain half of the taxes amount again this year from the trust, but the trustee denied for the second year. The lawyer had told me, in privacy, that the situation is very serious -- children denying their father his own money, money he earned from his work. But Noam doesn't accept their conditions exactly because the money is still his (they are the beneficiaries) and he never asked the children to disclose their financial lives to give them money. I agree that we don't have to live under their surveillance, as they want. Noam decided not access the trust. I totally agreed. And we decided to adjust our lives accordingly. The 30k is not the problem. The problem is that they seem to want to punish Noam for remarrying (maybe unconsciously), although Noam thinks that they are happy about our marriage. To give you an example, even one book that Noam decided to give me the copyright, it was angrily questioned. And Noam answered that the same way he has given to them, to their trusts and to his first wife (their mother), he is
