Key Takeaways
-
Treat your personal wealth like your business, with a strategy to prepare, plan, and protect.
-
Create your board of directors. As a business owner, you shouldn't be the middleman between all of your advisors. Surround yourself with a trusted team of professionals, including attorneys and tax experts, and let them collaborate on your behalf.
-
Educate the next generation. The great wealth transfer is happening now. Get the next generation involved in conversations about the family's financial history, values, and goals.
-
Women are not a niche market. With women living longer and the rise of female breadwinners and business owners, the financial industry is overdue in adapting to serve women. Financial planning is about empathy and understanding the unique goals and concerns of every client, regardless of gender.
