For high-net-worth families and individuals, it might not be the negative connotations as much as a budget seeming unnecessary if you have comfortable salaries and a disposable income cushion. And while we’re not fans of the word ‘budget’ either, we felt it was important to put the word front and center to jumpstart the conversation about what high-net-worth families should think about when it comes to the topic.

Gimme Some Truth | Investing, Financial Advice for High-Net-Worth Families and IndividualsSelling or Leaving Your Business? Why a Business Succession Plan is Key, with Jonathon Jordan, Certified Exit Planning AdvisorThere is a preponderance of Baby Boomers who have turned 65 over the last decade. About 10,000 Baby Boomers have hit the traditional retirement age milestone every day since 2011, and everyone in that generation will be 65 by 2030. And while many may be retiring, what about those who own their businesses and can't simply just ride into the sunset?
That's a difficult question and one that applies to more than just the business owners in the Baby Boomer generation. Selling or leaving a business can be a complex situation, often years in the making. In this episode, Walkner Condon's Jonathon J...2021-10-2226 min

Gimme Some Truth | Investing, Financial Advice for High-Net-Worth Families and IndividualsWhy Should I Hire (or Fire) a Financial Advisor?It seems like it'd be an obvious answer to the main question posed by the title of this podcast. But the truth is, we hear a number of different reasons when it comes to prospective clients describing why they're seeking out a financial advisor. For some, it's simply because a family member has one, and so it feels like the right path to follow. Some turn to an advisor after a large life event. And there are others who simply want the peace of mind of having a guiding hand when it comes to something as important as finances. 2021-08-1326 min
