    So could end up paying 40% iht then 40% on the remainder. Gulp. When taking houses and other savings into consideration it doesn't take much to get to 2 million  especially if over the oncoming years the iht threshold doesn't get increased 
    Why only 40% on the remainder?  Additional rate tax is 45%.
    Just an example really. 
    It's just my opinion and not advice.
