Leaving children with a substantial amount of money can be a boon
or a burden. High-net-worth parents need to give their children an
education to navigate today’s complex world. The question
becomes how to raise children with a sense of reality and balance,
imparting a strong work ethic, and making them good stewards of
their wealth.
Kids, Wealth, and Consequences enlightens high-net-worth
parents about the unique issues they need to explore. The book
addresses the ‘hard’ financial issues, such as
investing and estate planning, as well as the ‘soft’
emotional issues relating to values, family, and communication.
Morris and Pearl detail strategies and techniques to help parents
raise children who appreciate and know how to manage the wealth
they inherit.
Richard Morris spent many years working for his family’s
multimillion dollar business, and learned firsthand the challenges
of business ownership and family wealth.
Jayne Pearl is an experienced journalist who writes about families,
family businesses, and money.
