I guess because it is Iraq a lot of folks draw biblical inferences. I think it all depends on what you plan to do with your new wealth. If you plan to keep all for yourself or help others with it. I plan to help others with mine, so I am not concerned about any "mark of the beast"
Make sure you fully understand what a Charitible Remainder Trust is. A close friend gifted most of the sale of his company to his church thru a CRT. The stock market tanked and his % of income from the CRT dropped significantly. He has been in a financial bind now for several years. This might be the right way to go for some folks and I am not saying it isn't. Just make sure you fully understand any investment before placing your money in it. JMHO
