The sole sponsor for the 2019 Rolling Stones NoFilter Tour is the Alliance for Lifetime income. They are an advocacy organization whose purpose is to help Americans address the risk of outliving their retirement income. The group is a nonprofit with 24 financial service companies as members. The companies include AIG, Allianz, Axa, Goldman Sachs, Prudential, State Street and TIAA.

But the new tax laws are still being sorted out, and many provisions lack clear guidance from the IRS; however it appears that one area that will almost certainly be impacted is trusts and estates, which are likely to see higher income tax bills.
