The ironic part about talking to the next generation about wealth transfer is you DON'T have to start with the dollar values, the balance sheet, or the amounts.
Don't get me wrong...the dollar values will come up in due time, but you don't have to START with that.
Why? Money means so much more than just the dollars - it represents the first generation's history, values, and the opportunities it will provide for future. So let's start the conversation with talking about
🔷 where did this money come from? Your money story!
🔷 what's important to us about money?
🔷 what do we want that money to achieve for future generations and for the community at large?
When wealth transfer conversations start with VALUES, it reminds the next generation about gratitude and can give them a sense of purpose instead of entitlement.
(Thanks to Cindy Arledge, MBA and her fantastic book, The Cur$e of Inheritance for sharing more on this!)
