How can you gift future asset appreciation to the next generation with little or no tax impact? We partnered with Vanilla to show financial advisors how to help clients evaluate a grantor retained annuity trust (GRATs) as part of a broader wealth transfer plan: #EstatePlanning# #WealthTransfer# #GRAT#

Wealth doesn't transfer by default; it evaporates by default, and no, Bitcoin doesn't fix this. Headlines are showing the largest wealth transfer in the world is coming: $93 TRILLION, but 60%+ will die before it reaches the next generation. The families that keep their wealth aren't lucky; it comes from building a Wealth System where assets aren't sold, instead, credit is issued against them for lifestyle, it's held in structures that hold the assets, and a stepped-up basis at death to the heirs erases a lifetime of gains. If you believe in Bitcoin's future, make sure it lasts forever in your family and build the system that makes wealth transmissible.

The biggest wealth transfer in American history isn’t happening on Wall Street. It’s happening on U-Hauls. Over $2 trillion in income fled high-tax blue states for low-tax red states in just 11 years. And blue states’ solution? Raise taxes again.

I am righteously indignant over the wealth transfer to the very few that these bubbles create. The whole system is about creating bubbles so the grift can happen, both inside companies, transferring wealth to their employees at obscene rates, and in politics, as we see all over.

Millennials were told a “great wealth transfer” was coming. A lot of middle-class families see something else coming instead, long-term care bills, downsizing and maybe photo albums. As one Redditor put it, “The only thing we’d inherit was debt.”

My view is this is a wealth transfer to US hedge funds (again). Korean laymen are messing up their once-in-three-generations economic boom. Americans are the greatest investors in the world and it will show here.
