Most lawyers build their firms to serve clients, not to eventually leave them. But every law firm owner will exit someday, whether by choice, necessity, or life change. In episode 622 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Zack Glaser talks with Tom Lenfestey, attorney, CPA, and founder of The Law Practice Exchange, about why exit planning should not be treated as something reserved for retirement. Tom explains why succession planning often feels like the end, while exit planning gives firm owners more control over their future, their value, and their next act. They explore what makes a law firm transferable, why systems and data matter to buyers, and how lawyers can build firms that are worth more than just the owner's name. Tom also breaks down how the market for law firm sales is changing, from private capital to alternative business structures, and why modern buyers are looking closely at financials, intake, marketing, operations, and owner independence. If you own a law firm, this conversation is a reminder that your firm can be more than a job you built for yourself. With the right planning, it can become an asset, a legacy, and a bridge to whatever comes next.

Welcome to a long-awaited episode of Fratello On Air! Well, at least we're excited to be back. It's been a while, meaning we'll cover some recent news from the watch industry, sneaker landscape, television, and even our personal lives. We look forward to catching up with you!It's been nearly two months since we last published an episode of Fratello On Air. Yes, that's too long, but life has gotten in the way. It's mainly Mike who has had a crazy travel schedule, with just 36 hours spent in the UK in April. Balazs has been at the ready, but just seven weeks ago, he became a father as his daughter was born (on RJ's birthday, no less!). But here we are, with a full hour to catch up and a plan to visit the airwaves regularly.HandgelenkskontrolleWe actually end our show with the Handgelenkskontrolle, but tradition requires it to open our written recap. At the beginning of the show, we cover a multitude of topics. Of course, we mention travel with Mike doing the lion's share of flying. Multiple trips to the United States, a stop in Switzerland for Watches and Wonders 2026, Germany, and Italy have made the flight plan over the last two months. But don't worry, we've been watching television during flights or sleepless newborn nights. From, Euphoria, Succession, and IT: Welcome to Derry are some of the shows we've been viewing. Regarding shoes, Balazs mentioned the Nike Tennis Classic PRM, a sneaker with surfaces inspired by watch straps. Meanwhile, Mike has purchased a lively pair of New Balance 992s for the summer. For the Handgelenkskontrolle, Mike is wearing his modern, dark blue 42mm Breitling SuperOcean. Balazs is wearing the watch he had on during his daughter's birth, his beloved Rolex GMT-Master 1675.Catching up on the newsOf course, we discuss the Audemars Piguet × Swatch Royal Pop. While he's not in love with the watch, he feels that it's one of the most significant happenings in watch history. That's a bold take! We also spend time talking about the new and pre-owned watch market in general. Balazs also mentions a recently auctioned Cartier-signed Piaget dual time, which sold for a wild amount of money. Mike's longtime favorite, the Cartier Tank Normale, also makes an appearance. Regarding recent acquisitions, Balazs has a new Grand Seiko waiting for him in the UK. Mike has gone in a very different direction with a vintage Bulova Accutron Spaceview. Despite numerous concerns about the reliability of these pieces, the watch has run perfectly for nearly two months. It even visited Watches and Wonders! This watch prompts a lovely story about Roger Smith, who owns a cantankerous version of the watch.We hope you enjoyed this episode of Fratello On Air. We promise to be back much sooner next time. Thanks for listening and, as always, if you have ideas for future shows, let us know!

I'm thrilled to share some timeless leadership and investing wisdom from my latest Capitalist Culture® podcast episode with Robert Miles, internationally recognized author and expert on Warren Buffett's leadership philosophy and the decentralized culture of Berkshire Hathaway.This is our second-anniversary episode of the show, and it could not be more fitting to celebrate with a conversation centered on long-term thinking, enduring leadership, and building businesses that stand the test of time.Here are the highlights you will not want to miss:Robert's Journey:• Discovering Warren Buffett: Robert first became fascinated with Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway in 1995, beginning a decades-long journey studying Buffett's leadership and investment principles. • From Blog Post to Global Authority: What started as a simple article eventually led to bestselling books, university courses, and direct endorsement from Warren Buffett himself. The Berkshire Hathaway Difference• Long-Term Thinking Wins: Berkshire CEOs often stay in place for 25 years or more, compared to the typical 5 to 6 year corporate cycle. • Decentralized Leadership: Buffett empowers leaders to run their businesses independently without constant oversight or bureaucracy. • Trust Over Micromanagement: Berkshire's culture is built on autonomy, accountability, and integrity.Leadership Lessons from Buffett• Integrity, Intelligence, and Energy: Robert explained Buffett's belief that great leaders combine all three qualities. • Purpose Over Money: The best Berkshire leaders genuinely love what they do and are driven by mission, not compensation. • Treat Shareholders Like Partners: Buffett's communication style reflects transparency and long-term alignment.Private Equity vs Berkshire Philosophy• The Problem with Short-Termism: Robert argued that much of private equity focuses too heavily on flipping companies quickly. • Berkshire's Approach: Instead of financial engineering, Berkshire focuses on durable businesses with strong cultures and long-term growth potential.What Makes Great Businesses Endure• Durable Competitive Advantages: Buffett looks for “moats” that protect businesses from competitors over time. • Strong Culture Matters: Enduring companies consistently invest in employees, customers, and long-term trust. • Avoid Excessive Debt: Financial discipline remains one of Buffett's core principles.Succession and Scaling Leadership• Greg Abel's Role: Robert discussed Berkshire's leadership transition and how Greg Abel represents a new generation of stewardship. • Founder Evolution: Entrepreneurs eventually need to transition leadership to family members or professional operators to continue scaling effectively.Lessons for Entrepreneurs and Investors• Think Like an Owner: Buffett encourages founders to treat their business as if it were their only investment. • Compounding Changes Everything: Small advantages sustained over long periods create extraordinary outcomes. • Culture Is the Ultimate Advantage: Great businesses are built on trust, loyalty, and consistent leadership.Final Thoughts• Long-Termism Is Rare: In a world obsessed with quarterly results, Berkshire Hathaway remains a model of patience and discipline. • Leadership Is Stewardship: The best leaders build organizations that thrive beyond themselves. • Success Is Freedom: Robert defines success as the ability to spend time doing meaningful work with people you value.I hope these insights inspire you to listen to the full episode.

Today's Headlines: Two January 6th police officers — Harry Dunn and Daniel Hodges — filed a lawsuit to block Trump's $1.776 billion slush fund, naming Trump, Todd Blanche, and Scott Bessent, while exactly one Republican congressman, Brian Fitzpatrick, called it out publicly — prompting Trump to immediately shitpost about Fitzpatrick's wife. On the primaries, Tuesday's results confirmed that Trump owns the GOP completely: Mitch McConnell lost his Senate primary to a Trump-endorsed challenger, Georgia has two runoff races next month with no clear Trump favorite in either, and Alabama is in redistricting limbo with a special primary coming in August. The through-line is simple — any hint of dissent costs you your job, even as Trump's approval rating drops and voters are furious about costs. The Ebola outbreak is moving fast, with over 600 suspected cases and 139 deaths — a 30% jump in a single day — a 30-50% fatality rate, no treatment, and a vaccine still months away. The International Rescue Committee says Trump's USAID cuts left the region dangerously unprepared to catch the outbreak early, though the State Department has now pledged to fund 50 treatment clinics, which is good, and also something USAID was already doing before it was gutted. Remember when shitposting about Charlie Kirk was treated like a crime? Well, a retired Tennessee cop spent 37 days in jail and lost his job over a Facebook post quoting Trump after a school shooting — Perry County will now pay him $835,000 for the First Amendment violation, which seems like an expensive lesson. In real life Succession, James Murdoch officially acquired roughly half of Vox Media including New York Magazine and its podcast network for over $300 million, with The Verge and Eater not included in the deal. SpaceX filed for its IPO yesterday at a $1.25 trillion valuation — one day after Elon lost his OpenAI trial — with Musk's compensation package including a billion shares that only vest when there's a permanent Mars colony of at least one million people, so that's his retirement plan. OpenAI is filing for its IPO tomorrow at an $850 billion valuation, Anthropic is raising money at a $900 billion valuation, and Trump endorsed Spencer Pratt for mayor of Los Angeles, calling him "a character" and "a big MAGA person," with Pratt currently polling between second and third ahead of the June 2nd primary.

Renaissance English History Podcast: A Show About the Tudors
Edward VI gets overlooked. He's usually just the boy between Henry and the interesting women. But here's what people miss: Edward didn't just die and leave a mess. He made choices. Theologically driven, politically sophisticated choices. From his deathbed. At fifteen. This week's What If looks at the Devise for Succession, the document Edward drafted in his own hand that bypassed both his sisters and put Lady Jane Grey directly in line for the throne. We look at the pressure campaign he ran on his terrified council, and then ask: what if he'd backed down? Spoiler: the cruel irony is that his plan failed completely and the thing he was trying to protect probably survived because of that failure. Learn more about your ad choices.

En este review analizamos el enfrentamiento definitivo entre Nial y Reuben, la relación tóxica que une a ambos personajes, el significado del accidente, la escena del hospital, la obsesión emocional entre ellos y el impactante final con la muerte de Reuben en el granero. En este episodio, Half Man deja de ser únicamente una serie sobre trauma o dependencia emocional para convertirse en una historia mucho más oscura sobre masculinidad tóxica, deseo reprimido, culpa, violencia y necesidad de validación. Comentamos cómo la serie construye la obsesión mutua entre Nal y Reuben, el simbolismo del juego del escondite, el intercambio de destinos entre ambos personajes y cómo el éxito, la vergüenza y el resentimiento terminan destruyendo sus vidas. También hablamos de: La escena final de la boda y la muerte de Ruben El significado del abrazo final La relación entre violencia y amor en la serie La importancia de la escritura en la vida de Nial El papel de Lori y las dinámicas familiares El hospital como espacio íntimo y perturbador El deterioro mental de Nial y su miedo constante a Reuben Todas las claves y teorías del episodio 4 Si os gustan series como Baby Reindeer, Industry, Euphoria, Succession o Normal People, creo sinceramente que Half Man se está convirtiendo en una de las series más incómodas y potentes del año.

High Reliability, The Healthcare Facilities Management Podcast
Succession planning is rarely a smooth process. According to Paul and Ryan, it involves life vests, knee scrapes, back stops, and sometimes avoiding the metaphorical bus altogether.In this episode of Healthcare Facilities Network, the conversation reframes succession planning as something much bigger: business continuity planning. Rather than simply preparing the next leader, Paul and Ryan explain why healthcare organizations must ensure hospitals continue to operate effectively when key players are suddenly unavailable or gone.The discussion dives into the leadership challenges that often prevent organizations from planning ahead, including fear, ego, and stubbornness. Paul and Ryan also explore the importance of mentorship, accountability, professional presence, and creating environments where future leaders are allowed to grow through experience without allowing mistakes to become catastrophic failures.As Ryan explains, one phrase Paul often uses captures that philosophy perfectly: “I'm gonna let you scrape your knee and not get hit by the bus.”Whether you are actively building future leaders or simply thinking about the long-term stability of your organization, this episode offers practical insight into developing people while protecting the future of the hospital.

In this episode of The Sharpen Podcast, Drew Hiss sits down with Duane Donner, founder and CEO of Founder Advisors, to talk about what it takes to build a company that is valuable, transferable, and aligned with a larger purpose. Duane shares how early failure, burnout, and a hard reset in both business and life shaped the way he rebuilt his career and eventually grew an M&A advisory firm focused on stewardship, trust, and long-term impact.Together, Drew and Duane unpack what CEOs and business owners need to understand about succession, deal readiness, valuation, private equity, and leadership depth. The conversation matters for leaders because it reframes transition planning as more than a financial event. It is also a leadership decision about reducing risk, preserving influence, and building something that can last beyond the founder.Learn more about Duane Donner and Founder Advisors hereConnect with Duane on LinkedInTake the Investment Grade AssessmentLearn more about Abide and Lead MinistryInterested in learning more about Acumen visit us here.

On 5 June 1288, the Battle of Worringen took place, serving as the violent climax to the Limburg War of Succession. This battle featured a "who's who" of the north-western Holy Roman Empire and transformed the Rhineland from a chaotic mosaic of dominions into a new political reality. Rather than a tale of good versus evil, the conflict was a raw struggle for land, power, and the right to dominate the region

Here's what the replacement mindset produces.You identify someone who looks like you. Leads like you. Thinks like you. Has navigated the organisation the way you have.You develop them to fill the seat you currently occupy.And then one day they step into it — and discover that the seat has changed. The organisation has moved. The challenges are different. The market has shifted. The team has new faces and new dynamics.And the person you prepared — perfectly — for the organisation as it was, is now leading the organisation as it is. Without the preparation that required.
FSU and Georgia's long-awaited home-and-home series has officially been canceled, with both schools reportedly working toward a possible 2028 neutral-site game in Tampa instead. Translation: college football scheduling has entered its “corporate retreat with shoulder pads” era. The ACC and SEC's shift toward nine-game conference schedules helped push the series off the board, and yes, the bag appears to be very much in the room.Meanwhile, the Big Ten continues to be Big Money, reminding everyone that conference realignment is less “student-athlete experience” and more “Succession, but with punters.” FSU fans are watching the dollars, the media deals, and the future of the ACC like Vince staring into the camera after a third-and-14 draw play.But it's not all scheduling sadness and TV executive jazz hands: FSU softball and baseball are still giving us joy. Softball is the No. 1 seed in the ACC Tournament, just beat Georgia Tech 2-1 to reach the semifinals, and cleaned up with major ACC awards. Baseball is riding momentum too, with the No. 14 Noles sweeping Pitt, beating Jacksonville, and taking a five-game winning streak into the Clemson series.So tonight, we're talking canceled classics, conference cash, diamond dominance, and why college sports now feels like a group project where ESPN did none of the work but still wants the PowerPoint credit.

Author, podcaster and financial advisor Tyson Ray explains the importance of knowing your financial advisor's succession plan and what happens to you when they retire. “If something happens to you, what happens to me?” It's a simple question. But it's one most people don't ask. When you hire a financial advisor, you're not just hiring a strategy. You're hiring a relationship. Someone who understands your goals, your family, your history, and your financial life. But what happens when that person is no longer there? This week on the “Retire Today” podcast I sat down with Tyson Ray and we explored a topic that doesn't get enough attention: advisor succession planning—and why it matters for your retirement. The Reality Most Clients Don't Think About At some point, every advisor will step away from their business. It might be planned. It might be unexpected. But it will happen. As Tyson pointed out, a large portion of the financial advisory industry is approaching retirement at the same time. That means many clients will experience a transition—whether they're prepared for it or not. The problem isn't that advisors retire. The problem is how that transition is handled. When the Client Isn't the Priority Tyson shared a concern that drove him to write his book: In many succession plans, the client isn't the focus. Firms are bought and sold. Advisors retire. Businesses merge. And in the process, decisions are often driven by valuation, growth, or internal strategy. But those decisions can create unintended consequences. In some cases, clients are simply informed after the fact:Your advisor is gone. Here's your new one. That kind of transition can feel abrupt—and it raises an important question: Was this designed with your best interest in mind? Why Succession Is a Fiduciary Responsibility One of the most important ideas Tyson introduced is this: Succession planning isn't optional. It's a fiduciary responsibility. A fiduciary is someone who puts the client's interests first. And that responsibility doesn't stop with investment recommendations or financial planning. It extends to what happens when the advisor is no longer there. “You've entrusted your life savings… to an advisor,” Tyson said. That level of trust deserves a plan. Not just for today—but for the future. The Right Way to Think About Transition So what does a good succession plan look like? It starts with intention. Tyson framed it this way: “How can I do this in such a way that… 5 to 10 years after I've made this transition… they thank me for it?” That's a powerful standard. Because it shifts the focus from:What's best for the business? To:What's best for the client? A thoughtful transition should: Be communicated clearly Introduce new advisors before the change happens Maintain continuity in philosophy and service And ultimately leave the client better off Why This Matters More in Retirement This topic becomes even more important in retirement. As Tyson pointed out, the older you get, the harder it becomes to make changes—especially when it comes to trusted relationships. Switching advisors at age 45 is one thing. Switching at 75 is something else entirely. That's why having a plan—and understanding that plan—is so important. The “Caretaker” Model One approach Tyson described is building a team around the client. Instead of replacing the advisor entirely, firms can introduce additional team members—often younger advisors—who become part of the relationship over time. These team members act as an extension of the original advisor, not a replacement. That way, if something changes, the client isn't starting over. They already know the people who will continue serving them. What You Should Ask Your Advisor If you take one action from this conversation, let it be this: Ask your advisor a simple question: “If something happens to you, what happens to me?” The answer should be clear. And if it's not, that's a signal. Because a good advisor isn't just planning your retirement. They're planning for what happens if they're no longer there to guide it. The Bottom Line Succession planning isn't just a business decision. It's a client decision. It affects your experience, your confidence, and your financial future. The best advisors don't just serve you today. They make sure you're taken care of tomorrow, too. Don't forget to leave a rating for the “Retire Today” podcast if you've been enjoying these episodes!

V&C Foods began in 1945 with Victor and Charlotte Cortesi delivering ranch fresh eggs to San Francisco bakeries during World War II. Today, it's a multigenerational, family run distributor supplying top Bay Area restaurants with dairy and specialty products. Steven Herrera started as a 25-year-old route driver, rose through operations and ultimately took over ownership, expanding the company into a full-service dairy supplier. Now, Steven and his son Adam are engineering a phased transition of leadership, sharing how family succession works in real life, what it takes to keep a tight knit culture through ownership changes and how planning ahead with trusted financial partners can make retirement and continuity possible at the same time.

Most advisors say they want to exit. What they actually want is to stop doing the parts they hate. Scott Danner has had this conversation more times than he can count. The advisor says they want to sell. Then the deal falls apart. Not because the numbers were wrong but because nobody asked the right question at the start. Scott is the Executive Vice President and Head of Legacy at Steward Partners. He founded Freedom Street Partners in 2016, built it to nearly $3.5 billion in AUM, and sold it to Steward Partners in late 2023. He started at Edward Jones with zero clients and cold called his way into the industry. That background gives him a credibility in this conversation that most people talking about M&A simply do not have. In this episode, Frank and Scott break down what is actually happening inside succession deals when they collapse, why M&A is the mechanism quietly solving the industry's age and talent problem and how the sell, stay and grow model gives advisors a way to monetize without disappearing. Scott also shares how Freedom Street Partners built a career ladder that next generation advisors could actually follow, what independence with infrastructure means at Steward Partners and why he believes advisors who dismiss a W2 model immediately are thinking too small. Questions answered in this episode include: Why do sell and exit deals keep failing? What does M&A actually do for the long-term health of the financial advisory industry? What is the sell, stay and grow model and how does it work? How do you build a career ladder that next generation advisors will actually believe in? What does independence with infrastructure mean at Steward Partners? How can an advisor keep their brand and their clients while still monetizing their practice? Why should advisors think twice before ruling out a W2 model?
