How to Discuss Wealth With Your Family
Overview
Talking about wealth is every bit as important as creating a technical wealth plan—if not more so. Preparing a wealth transfer plan for your assets “on paper,” but failing to help your loved ones understand how to manage those assets in their lives, leaves the true process of sharing wealth incomplete and subject to real, but avoidable, risks. When it comes to family money and wealth, it is important to understand the variety of styles families may employ to encourage proactive, healthy, and informative family discussions.
