The Biltmore ViewEpisode 37: The Prenup Fallacy - Kellie Hall, Head of Estate Planning at Biltmore Family OfficeOn today’s Biltmore View we’re going to mix it up a bit. Rather than another discussion about niche investments such as music royalties or mortgage derivatives, we’re going to dig into a different sort of niche investment subject – prenuptial agreements.

The Biltmore ViewEpisode 35: Going Nuclear - The Future of Energy with Jay Surina, Managing Director at Pelican Energy PartnersOne area that seems to be overlooked in the energy transition is nuclear energy. This is an existing zero-emission technology that currently provides over 18% of electrical capacity in the US. At the most recent COP 28 gathering of nations to address global climate change, a declaration was signed to triple nuclear capacity by 2050. This is a really big deal. We’ve invited Jay Surina, Managing Partner at Pelican Energy to educate us on the current state of nuclear energy. What Jay has to say may surprise you. New reactor designs promise to expand nuclear power tremendously. Cheaper, emission-free bas...2024-03-0848 min

The Biltmore ViewEpisode 26: Boris Jordan, Founder Measure 8 Venture Partners and Chairman Curaleaf - Cannabis Reform in the Lame Duck?The slow rolling legalization of cannabis in the United States is providing an interesting investment opportunity. Since Covid, cannabis sales are up tremendously. The legal industry is growing as more states legalize medicinal and/or recreational use. As large, licensed multiple state cannabis operations grow, they are increasingly cashflow positive. All of this despite having no access to the US banking system and paying a particularly high effective tax rate – frequently north of 70%. In the beginning of 2021, banks, wary of unclear Federal law, began to prevent their brokerage clients from investment in public cannabis companies. Since that time...2022-12-0722 min
