I would like to have a trust; however, my husband does not want to do a trust. What options do I have? Is it possible for me to have my own trust? I have very few assets that are just in my name.

You could create a trust on your own, but that's not necessarily a good idea - if, for example, you transfer your half of any jointly held assets into your trust, they may not pass to you if your husband were to die first.
