Between the >$10MM wealthy and the incredibly UHNW Family Office of $300MM+ lies the oft misunderstood and under-appreciated family business founder, family, and staff who have concentrated risk and have prevailed against the onslaught of business, personal, and advisory challenges. What do they think, want, and need? Why do they heed some advice and not others? How does an advisor differentiate him/herself with true “value-add” services and enjoy high client retention and amazingly higher fees year-after-year? Hint: It isn’t firm size that matters and transactional mindsets seldom work.

Traditionally, people, especially professionals, have limited any discussion of wealth to financial assets: investments, real estate, cash, and worldly possessions. But when asked what we value most in life the majority of people say: family, health, friends, values, skills, and relationships. We might even add our accumulated wisdom, education, life lessons, and our experiences in the school of hard knocks. Furthermore, when asked what the biggest investment we ever made in our lives was, people typically respond with the time, energy, love, and commitment they made in building their family. “What Matters” will introduce you to a more holistic view of Family Wealth. This discovery will change everything you’ve ever thought about estate planning.
