Riassunto

Discover the best ways to build, protect, and sustain family and business wealth across generations!Wealth is the world's most valuable guide to wealth management for individuals, families, business owners, and the "upwardly affluent." In the six years since Stuart Lucas first wrote this book, however, the financial world has changed dramatically. Throughout the financial crisis and beyond, Lucas has led the University of Chicago's Private Wealth Management program, teaching more than 500 members of the world's wealthiest families. Now, he brings together extraordinary insights and constructs informed by this experience. Wealth, Updated and Revised Edition retains its core advice, which has been tested and proven by the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. However, Lucas has updated his exclusive Strategic Wealth Management Framework to help even more individuals, families, and entrepreneurs aspiring to wealth or seeking to protect it. Lucas highlights key value drivers - family purpose, the economic engine, and leakage management - that mark the difference between family enterprises that succeed for generations and those that fail. He offers updated, sage advice on making financial decisions, evaluating "expert" advice, running a family business office, tax/estate planning, philanthropy, wealth preservation, and more. Since developing a family's human capital is the best antidote to Wall Street excess, this edition adds even more robust and actionable guidance for building a culture of Entrepreneurial Stewardship: one that enables and encourages all family members to flourish, and improves the odds that families can sustain wealth. This book is for all successful business owners and anyone who possesses (or aspires to own) substantial financial assets, whether earned or inherited. It will also be of keen interest to investment advisors, business consultants, business brokers, wealth industry practitioners, lawyers, accountants, tax advisors, and others who counsel the wealthy (and upwardly affluent) about wealth management.

Dalla quarta di copertina

As a fourth-generation heir of E. A. Stuart, founder of the Carnation Company, Stuart Lucas knows first-hand the privileges, challenges, and responsibilities of wealth. His family s approach is a backdrop to this book: a peek through the window that you rarely experience. This gives Wealth unusual credibility. The author is practicing day-to-day--with real dollars--the lessons he prescribes.
--JOE MANSUETO, Founder, Chairman, and CEO, Morningstar, Inc.

There just are not very many people like Stuart.... He wears his wisdom lightly and is a joy to have in the mix. I have enjoyed working with and learned a lot from Stuart. I think you will, too.
--G. GARVIN BROWN IV, EVP and Chairman, Board of Directors, Brown-Forman Corp.
