Podcasts about family wealth

Most families don't have a money problem.They have a leadership problem.In this powerful episode of Mindset Mastery Moments, Dr. Alisa Whyte sits down with Wealth Manager LaVaisha Davis to break down why wealth starts—and often stops—with the same generation.If you're a first-generation wealth builder, entrepreneur, or high-income professional, this conversation will shift how you think about financial leadership.LaVaisha introduces the concept of the Virtual Family Office (VFO) — a strategic wealth framework used by ultra-high-net-worth families to centralize advisors, eliminate financial leaks, reduce taxes, protect assets, and build true multi-generational systems.This isn't about buying financial products.It's about becoming the Family CEO of your financial legacy.Inside this episode:• Why traditional financial planning fails first-generation wealth creators• The leadership gap sabotaging generational wealth• How scattered CPAs, attorneys, and advisors create costly misalignment• Why family dynamics—not markets—are often the greatest wealth risk• The strategic structure wealthy families use to preserve and multiply assets• How one family member can break generational financial cyclesIf you've been earning more but still feel financially fragmented, this episode will challenge and equip you to think, plan, and grow like the 1%.Connect with LaVaisha Davis

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with Richard Orlando, author of "Legacy: The Hidden Keys to Optimizing Your Family Wealth Decisions," to dismantle everything you thought you knew about inheritance. While most financial planning stops at tax strategies and trust funds, Orlando reveals why the true "hidden keys" to family success have nothing to do with money at all. He challenges the conventional wisdom that legacy is something you leave behind when you die, arguing instead that it is something you must actively live every single day. If you've ever wondered why some families flourish for generations while others crumble under the weight of their own success, this conversation provides the blueprint for a legacy that lasts.

If you're saving for a child's education — or planning to — this episode will give you clarity and help you avoid costly mistakes.

Hi, welcome back to ValuationPodcast.com — a podcast and video series about all things business and valuation. I'm Melissa Gragg, a financial mediator and business valuation expert in St. Louis, Missouri.Today I'm joined by Jeff Condren, an advisor to family business owners in the Chicagoland area who specializes in next-generation transitions and building the right team to make those transitions successful.In this episode, we're digging into a topic that doesn't get talked about enough: how valuation decisions shape the entire family wealth system — from retirement planning and risk balancing, to succession, fairness among siblings, taxes, and even family harmony.5 Key TakeawaysValuation is a family systems decision, not just a number. How you value the business influences retirement planning, sibling expectations, governance, and future conflict.Regular valuations prevent stalled deals and “money left on the table.” Overvaluing can kill interest; undervaluing can cost millions — being prepared protects leverage.Business risk changes how owners invest outside the business. Many owners take big risk inside the company, then prefer a more conservative investment portfolio to balance total risk.Next-gen transitions require early exposure, not holiday dinner conversations. Families need a multi-year plan to share information, clarify values, and create ownership structures that don't explode later.The right accountability team reduces taxes and reduces family conflict. Coordinated planning with a CFO/treasurer, CPA/auditor, estate planner, financial advisor, and valuation expert prevents legal, tax, and sibling-war landmines.Q&As from the episode:Q1: Why do family business owners need regular business valuations?A: Regular valuations help owners set a realistic price if a buyer approaches, avoid over- or undervaluing the company, and plan retirement and succession with credible numbers.Q2: How does business valuation affect family wealth planning?A: The valuation influences estate planning, gifting decisions, tax strategy, portfolio risk, and how “fair vs. equal” is structured among children and heirs.Q3: What happens if a business owner undervalues their company during a sale?A: Undervaluing can leave millions on the table, weaken negotiating power, and create a sale price that doesn't match the real economic value of the business.Q4: Why do business owners delay succession planning?A: Many owners are emotionally attached to the business, unsure what they'll do after exiting, and focused on day-to-day operations instead of long-term transition strategy.Q5: Who should be on the team for a family business transition?A: Typically: an internal CFO/treasurer, an external CPA/auditor, a valuation expert, an estate planner, and a financial advisor to coordinate taxes, ownership, and post-sale planning.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/condren/Website: https://www.mesirow.com/bio/jeff-condrenJeffrey Condren is a Senior Vice President and Wealth Advisor in Mesirow Wealth Management.

Key Topics Covered: 1. Why the Family Wealth Fortress, Why Now Inheritance tax on pensions from April 2027 is forcing families to rethink legacy planning. “High net worth” is now effectively £1m plus once pensions are included, meaning far more families are exposed. Many people have a patchwork of advice and products that is hard to coordinate, hard to optimise, and hard for executors to manage. 2. From Patchwork Quilt to Fortress Thinking The goal is to make wealth transfer elegant, organised, and resilient for the next generation. Kevin frames this as moving from wealth abundance into legacy, with a clear process rather than “hinting” at legacy planning. WealthBuilders positions itself as the central coordinator, like a “wealth GP”, bringing specialists in when needed. 3. The Seven Integrations (The Fortress Framework) Tax: proactive “event led” planning, especially inheritance tax, not just annual returns. Legal: wills, powers of attorney, protection, and avoiding disputes such as contentious probate. Financial: building wealth is not enough, families need planning for protection and perpetuation too. Structures: holding companies, family investment companies, trusts, share classes, and intergenerational planning. SSAS and pensions: using family pension structures, earmarking, and cascading to reduce future inheritance tax impact. Recurring income: inheritance tax is on capital not income, so understanding income enables smarter gifting. Legacy: involving the next generation early through trusteeship, shareholding, and participation in the family plan. 4. Record Keeping, Gifting, and the Digital Vault Families need clear documentation to avoid confusion, delays, and challenges after death. Kevin highlights using intention and execution records (for example IHT documentation) to reduce HMRC risk. A digital vault brings tax, legal, financial, structures, and gifting records into one accessible place for executors. 5. Who It's For and How to Take the First Step This is application based, limited capacity, and aimed at families typically 55 plus with estates around £1m plus. It is designed to be implemented over 3 to 5 years, still broken down into manageable steps. A practical first move is using the free inheritance tax calculator to understand your current exposure.   Actionable Takeaways: Don't assume your current advice is joined up, check how tax, legal, financial and structures connect. Start planning for inheritance tax now, especially with pensions being included from April 2027. Move from reactive planning to proactive “event led” planning for key life events. Get your documentation organised and accessible, so executors are not left guessing. Involve the next generation earlier, so wealth transfer includes wisdom, not just money. Take the first step by using the IHT calculator and booking a conversation if the fortress approach fits your situation.   Resources & Next Steps: WealthBuilders 'The Family Wealth Fortress' Download our FREE Pensions and Inheritance Tax Guide WealthBuilders Membership: Free access to guides, webinars, and community   Connect with Us: Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and all major platforms.   Next Steps On Your WealthBuilding Journey:   Join the WealthBuilders Facebook Community Schedule a 1:1 call with one of our team Become a member of WealthBuilders If you have been enjoying listening to WealthTalk - Please Leave Us A Review!

Legacy is often shaped less by what is given and more by how values are shared across generations. In this episode of Celebrity Estates, wealth manager Philip Richter joins the show to explore philanthropy as a core part of estate planning and family decision-making. The conversation examines The Giving Pledge and how charitable intent, when left informal or unspoken, can lead to confusion, missed opportunities and misalignment among heirs. Philip explains why separating legacy from inheritance helps families focus on purpose rather than dollar amounts. He also shares how donor-advised funds, private foundations and charitable trusts can bring structure to giving while encouraging communication and shared responsibility. Join Senior Editor David Lenok and Philip Richter, president and partner at Hollow Brook Wealth Management, as they break down the estate planning lessons behind philanthropy, generational education and building a legacy that extends beyond assets. Philip discusses: How philanthropy can strengthen family communication while aligning values across generations through shared giving plans Why separating legacy from inheritance helps families focus on purpose, not just asset transfer Common structures for charitable giving, including donor-advised funds, private foundations, and charitable trusts The role advisors play in moderating sensitive family discussions around wealth, values, and responsibility Why early education and transparency prepare heirs to steward both capital and charitable intentions Resources: Listen to Celebrity Estates on WealthManagement.com Subscribe and listen to Celebrity Estates on Apple Podcasts Subscribe and listen to Celebrity Estates on Spotify Trust and Estates Magazine Connect With David Lenok: david.lenok@informa.com  WealthManagement.com LinkedIn: David Lenok LinkedIn: Informa LinkedIn: WealthManagement Connect With Philip Richter: Website: Hollow Brook Wealth Management LinkedIn: Hollow Brook Wealth Management LinkedIn: Philip Richter About Our Guest: Philip Richter is the President and Partner of Hollow Brook Wealth Management where he oversees firm-wide client relations, marketing and business development, and sits on the investment committee.

For decades, wealth management was defined by proximity.Advisors, Families, relationships built on continuity. The industry scaled slowly because wealth is personal, and stewardship doesn't lend itself easily to industrial logic.That assumption is now breaking.Over the past five years, the Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) industry has entered what has been described as a golden era of deal-making—one driven not by product innovation, but by ownership change. Wealth management is being scaled, with Private Equity-backed equity “roll-ups”.In the latest Investology episode, we're discussing the intricacies and implications of this industry trend with Andrew D. Mirolli, CEPA, the co-founder of BuyAUM.com - Growth Partner for RIA Buyers & Sellers.Enjoy the episode on every podcast platform or YouTube.About Andrew At buyAUM.com, I help Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) scale their practices and safeguard their legacies.For growth-focused firms, I provide access to curated acquisition opportunities tailored to strategic goals.

In this episode of The Family Biz Show, family business consultant Michael Palumbos is joined by Shawn Barberis of More Than Money 360 to explore how high-net-worth families can protect and grow their family wealth by focusing on communication, values, and legacy—not just dollars. Together, they unpack proven strategies to strengthen generational continuity, including the five pillars of success and six laws of family advancement. 1. Shawn's Journey & "More Than Money" (02:23–08:18) Shawn shares why he left law to launch a firm focused on the relational and cultural side of legacy. He realized families needed more than documents—they needed systems to protect family wealth through values, communication, and structure. 2. Perception vs. Reality of Risk (14:53–17:00) Most families fear market loss, but data shows 85% of wealth loss stems from broken trust and poor communication. Shawn highlights why this mindset shift is crucial to family legacy. 3. The Engagement Process (19:10–21:05) A 3-step approach: educate the family, define the legacy goal, and build a values-based plan. Legacy is built through process—not a single event. 4. Five Pillars of Generational Success (23:10–27:26) The foundation of enduring family wealth: communication, core values, family legacy, philanthropy, and governance—all working together to sustain family purpose and identity. 5. Six Laws of Family Advancement (29:27–35:42) From gratitude over entitlement to rising gen empowerment and transparent meetings, Shawn shares six laws that help families sustain wealth and legacy long term. 6. System, Process & the MTM Meter (37:29–41:19) Shawn introduces the More Than Money Meter—a tool that tracks how prepared and satisfied families are across the five pillars. As he says, "You can't improve what you don't measure." Tangible Takeaways for Leaders of Family Businesses Realize that the biggest threat to your family's lasting wealth is likely not the markets — it's breakdown in communication, trust and shared purpose. Use a process, not just an event: Begin with the end in mind, build curriculum, set outcome criteria. Prioritize the rising generation early: Give them voice, let them lead in meaningful ways, particularly in areas like impact investing or philanthropy. Use measurement: As you would for a business strategic plan or financial plan, set baseline, track progress in communication, values, legacy and governance. Consider your advisor ecosystem: One "quarterback" advisor who understands the family, across generations, often provides better continuity than multiple siloed advisors.

In this episode of Beer and Money, Ryan Burklo and Rob Bukacek delve into the intricacies of estate planning, focusing on a sample client with a $4 million estate.

Revocable living trusts help manage assets and avoid probate. It's important to consider potential issues with heirs, such as addiction or financial irresponsibility. Amendments to trusts may be necessary as laws and family situations change. Life insurance can impact estate tax considerations significantly. Understanding state-specific estate tax exemptions is essential for planning. Credit shelter trusts can protect assets from creditors and divorcing spouses. Trusts can be structured to provide for children while protecting their inheritance. Parents should consider how to manage their children's access to wealth after their passing. Effective estate planning requires ongoing education and adjustments.  Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Estate Planning 03:02 Understanding the Sample Client's Estate 06:14 The Role of Revocable Living Trusts 09:00 Avoiding Probate and Managing Assets 11:57 Navigating Spousal Trusts and Estate Taxes 17:51 Protecting Assets for Future Generations

The conversation covers government policy changes, inheritance tax, business succession, and practical steps to regain control, supported by real-life member stories and actionable advice. Key Topics Covered1.

The Danger of Knee-Jerk ReactionsKevin and Christian discuss how fear leads to poor decisions: raiding pensions early, panic property sales, or taking on short-term debt.Government policy changes often create uncertainty, leading to hasty moves that can undermine years of planning.“You don't plan your pension in a vacuum—you plan for a lifetime and a legacy.”3. Tax & Inheritance Changes: What You Need to KnowUpcoming changes to business succession tax: from April 2026, only the first £1m passed to the next generation will be tax-free (down from unlimited).Inheritance tax allowance has been frozen since 2009, dragging more people into the tax net.Unmarried individuals and those without children face additional challenges.4. Why Building Wealth is About Long-Term PlanningThe WealthBuilders approach: focus on building assets and recurring income, not just reacting to market or policy shifts.“Certainty comes from recurring income streams, not from activity or fear.”Importance of running a “family wealth business” alongside your main business.5. Member Success Story: John's JourneyJohn, a business owner, shares how WealthBuilders helped him move from feeling trapped to seeing a clear path to financial security.Building wealth outside the business creates options and security, even if business income fluctuates.6. Practical Steps to Regain ControlTake stock of your assets—many are under-leveraged.Reduce taxes and fees: review income tax, corporation tax, CGT, inheritance tax, and hidden financial fees.Consolidate pensions, update your will, and collect all key documents.WealthBuilders is developing a secure digital vault for document and asset tracking.7. The Power of Community & Trusted GuidanceDon't make decisions in isolation—seek advice from trusted communities, mentors, or professionals.Avoid taking guidance from social media or generic AI responses; your situation is unique.WealthBuilders' supportive community and expert network are there to help.Actionable TakeawaysPause Before Acting: Give yourself time to research and seek advice before making big financial decisions.Focus on Recurring Income: Build multiple streams of recurring income to create true financial security.Plan for the Long Term: Don't let short-term headlines derail your wealth-building journey.Get Organised: Consolidate pensions, update your will, and keep records secure for your family's future.Join a Community: Leverage the support and experience of others—don't go it alone.Final ThoughtsDon't let fear or headlines dictate your financial future.

This week, I talk with Alma Katsu about her new horror novel Fiend. We dive into her inspiration for the story, what draws her to horror, and how she crafted this insidious family.**Every tech issue that could happen did happen, so there's a somewhat rough cut when we had to switch platforms.Fiend by Alma Katsu SynopsisImagine if the Sackler family had a demon at their beck and call.The Berisha family runs one of the largest import-export companies in the world, and they've always been lucky. Their rivals suffer strokes. Inconvenient buildings catch on fire. Earthquakes swallow up manufacturing plants, destroying harmful evidence. Things always seem to work out for the Berishas. They're blessed.At least that is what Zef, the patriarch, has always told his three children. And each of them knows their place in the family—Dardan, as the only male heir, must prepare to take over as keeper of the Berisha secrets, Maris's most powerful contribution, much to her dismay, will be to marry strategically, and Nora's job, as the youngest, is to just stay out of the way. But when things stop going as planned, and the family blessing starts looking more like a curse, the Berishas begin to splinter, each hatching their own secret scheme. They didn't get to be one of the richest families in the world without spilling a little blood, but this time, it might be their own.

Craig has over 25 years of public accounting experience, including serving clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies to local or middle market companies, as well as high net worth family offices and individuals.

Craig and his firm, Veridian, are advisor members of FOX and we are thrilled to have their expertise available within our membership community. In recent years, technological advancements have transformed the role of the advisor serving UHNW families. Craig talks about how the role of the advisor has evolved alongside technology, and particularly how the role of the CPA has changed. With the rise of AI, we are beginning to witness the next-stage transformation of the family advisor role. Craig shares his thoughts on what is likely to happen to the role of the fiduciary advisor in the era of AI – how will CPAs, estate planners, and wealth planners will coexist with the AI tools. One practical consideration advisors and families need to navigate is the increasingly divergent preferences between older-gen and rising-gen clients. Craig offers his tips on how professionals and clients can best manage the “generational tug of war” caused by their different values and preferences. Finally, Craig provides his and suggestions for UHNW clients on how best to interact with their CPA – especially given all the self-serve tools and AI solutions that are increasingly available in all professional services fields. Please enjoy this highly informative conversation with a leading expert and experienced UHNW advisor serving enterprise families.

Guest: Ruschelle Khanna - Family business consultant, psychotherapist, and author of "Inherited Trauma and Family Wealth"Key Timestamps & Ideas3:00-5:30 - Growing Up in Coal Country Despite feeling abundant as a child, underlying financial anxiety from this environment shaped her early money scripts and relationship with wealth.5:30-8:00 - The Origins of Inherited Trauma WorkThree catalysts led to her book: inheriting a traumatic memory from her mother, experiencing Lyme disease, and 20 years of NYC client work. 8:00-12:00 - The Prison MetaphorBoth poverty and wealth can create psychological prisons. 12:00-15:30 - Practical Healing StrategiesFamily governance serves as therapeutic tool, along with genealogy research and getting families talking. 15:30-20:00 - Transparency vs. SecrecyShe advocates transparency about family wealth with next generation, explaining how secrecy robs children of pride in family legacy. 20:00-25:00 - Multi-Generational DynamicsLonger lifespans create more generations alive simultaneously. Value differences between generations are natural. Documenting family legacy helps members understand the "unique collection of coincidences" that created family wealth.25:00-30:00 - The Five Liabilities of Family TeamsFamilies fall into cycles of chaos, conflict avoidance, people pleasing, procrastination, and abandonment. Conflict in wealthy families isn't "about the money" but about belonging and unspoken pain, with underlying trauma as the root cause.30:00-35:00 - Money as Intimate EnergyMoney sits at our "root chakra" with sexuality and intimacy. The pudendal nerve means "the place to be ashamed of" in Latin, explaining why people discuss trauma but avoid talking about money in therapy.35:00-40:00 - Success vs. Failure in Wealth TransitionSuccess requires strong relational, financial, and operational systems. Even "abandonment" can resolve energetically over generations, though blended families face increased emotional complexity and trust issues.40:00-45:00 - Self-Worth and Sibling DisparitiesThe pillar metaphor describes never feeling "less than" by cultivating both inherent worth ("you're lovable because you exist") and earned worth. Wealth disparities between siblings can destroy family relationships.45:00-50:00 - Addressing Compulsive BehaviorsCompulsive spending functions as addiction: "what is the pain you're running from?" Imposter syndrome and Dunning-Kruger effect represent two sides of worth issues, while "inversion of trust" means feeling safer with strangers than family.50:00-55:00 - Individual Change Creates Systemic HealingWorking on inherited trauma individually heals entire family systems. Using the "fascia" metaphor, removing one knot improves the whole system. Success means creating lasting change while learning personally.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC. All statements and opinions expressed are based upon information considered reliable although it should not be relied upon as such.
