Plutus™ Foundation Impact Series

Generational Wealth

February 2022

Each month in 2022, the Plutus Foundation Impact Series features select articles, podcast episodes, and videos from participating content creators, all around a central theme.
The theme for February is generational wealth. Building wealth that leaves a legacy beyond the extent of your own life is one key to ensuring a stronger financial future for your family. However, this is a system that has fostered dynasties and placed power obstacles in the path of those who have not been as fortunate. Whether you’re building generational wealth or overcoming or breaking the system, the best solutions, advice, and stories from the Plutus Community will help you have an impact on your life.

Why generational wealth isn’t the answer
Generational Wealth
“A phrase that conjures clichés and triggers all manner of knee-jerk reactions. Inbred aristocracy. Idle nobles, hunting foxes on their manor estates. Old money families flexing their influence to buy elections and sponsor legislation. Legacy students purchasing conferred status from world-class tertiary institutions, regardless of ability. Deploying dynastic trusts and offshore entities to facilitate tax avoidance on an industrial scale. But here is the thing: wealth, once acquired, confers legitimacy and buys respectability. Regardless of origin…”

“Mark Zuckerberg’s net worth came crashing down yesterday, dropping by nearly $30 billion in a matter of hours, begging the facetious question: do you think his heirs will be okay? Rest assured, because yes, they will… But why will the children of these business magnates be okay?”

Upstream Gifting and Gifting Gains
“While death and taxes are not fun to think about, both will happen. Upon death, when you inherit an asset, its basis gets stepped up. Also, you are allowed to gift anyone 16k a year… even a parent! And if we put the two facts together…”

“Being financially stable and secure is about more than the immediate need to get bills paid on time or debt paid off. When people start families, they need to think about their future generations and financial stability. It’s essential to lay down a strong foundation for your children so that they can lay a solid foundation for theirs and so on…”
