ESTATE PLANNING COUNCIL OF NORTHERN NEVADA

The idea of viewing the family as a single unit has been ignored by almost everyone; yet, it remains as one of the only solutions for creating lasting family wealth generationally. The government has created a generational problem; it is time to have a discussion about a generational solution. Interference from the government and an enormous lack of financial knowledge rob families from passing tremendous amounts of wealth to the next generation. Along with it goes the lasting family legacy. Today, in generating family wealth, dabbling in stocks and mutual funds doesn't provide the ownership and control that is needed to pass on wealth successfully. The elements that affect these types of legacies are taxes, risk, creditors, and luck.
