Maximize Your Family’s Financial Legacy by Communicating Across Generations!
May 06, 2025
🙌 On this episode of The Get Ready Money Podcast, I spoke with Chad Holmes, Author and Owner of Formula Wealth about changing the way we think about money and creating an inheritance playbook.
🧐 Key takeaways:
🔹 Proactively planning together with the next generation maximizes financial legacies (include all generations).
🔹 Pay attention to your clients - ask them what questions do you have?
🔹 Tailor your conversations to your clients.
🔹 The earlier we can have conversations with our parents/partners, the better things can go.
🔹 Hiring an advisor is an investment - the value received should exceed the investment.
🔹 Money should not be taboo.
