Stewarding Wealth, Values and Wisdom Into The Next Generations – Ted Oakley: Ep #506

We all want to equip our kids to succeed and create a lasting legacy. The question is: how do we do that? I recently had a live conversation about this topic with Ted Oakley, Managing Partner and Founder of Oxbow Advisors. As someone who helps clients navigate the markets, plan for retirement, and steward wealth for the next generations, Ted has tremendous wisdom around building true wealth and creating a legacy worth more than just money.

Listen in as we discuss how to foster independence in young adults, when to hand over an inheritance or the family business to your children, and how to resist the temptation to help your children too much. We also discuss the most valuable skill sets in almost any career, how to test if someone is hirable, and what opportunities exist for young adults in today’s economy.
