Building a Legacy That Outlives You
We don’t just want to make money—we want to pass on wisdom, protection, and purpose. This episode is all about the real stuff most people avoid: trusts, inheritance, and what happens after you're gone. But it’s not just legal talk—it’s legacy talk.
We share raw stories from our own families, what we’re learning about setting up living trusts, and how we’re thinking about generational wealth. It’s not about giving our kids a free ride—it’s about building guardrails and giving them a chance to carry the mission further. Because wealth without wisdom leads to waste.
Whether you’ve got a million in assets or you’re just starting to build, this episode will challenge how you think about ownership, impact, and family responsibility. There’s no one-size-fits-all, but there is a smarter way to plan for what matters.
📌 Key Topics:
✅ Why a trust beats a will (and what we wish we knew sooner)
✅ How we’re structuring our assets to protect our families
✅ What the Rockefellers did right—and the Vanderbilts didn’t
✅ Living to give vs. dying with money
✅ Avoiding family drama through smart planning
✅ The role of life insurance in wealth transfer
✅ Our personal philosophies on giving while alive
✅ What it really means to leave a legacy of wisdom
Every dollar you make is a tool. The question is: Will it serve your family—or divide them?
