Many states offer the executor a small percentage of the estate's total assets as payment. For instance, an executor in Kentucky may receive up to 5 percent of the estate's assets. Other states, like California and Nevada, use a fee schedule set by law to pay the executor based on the size of the estate.any states offer the executor a small percentage of the estate's total assets as payment.

In the Old Testament glory comes from the Hebrew word kabod meaning weighty or heavy; points to how impressive and worthy God is of our praise. It is also related to a word meaning to beautify. The glory of humans is subjective; the glory of God is objective.
With all due respect to the stars and stripes, I prefer the yellow Gadsden flag with the coiled rattlesnake and the defiant Don't Tread on Me motto. The meaning of Old Glory can get mixed up with the rights and wrongs of the perpetually new-and-improved government. The meaning of Don't Tread on Me is unmistakable. There's also an interesting history behind this flag. And it's intertwined with one of American history's most interesting personalities, Ben Franklin.
