Leaving a Legacy

Should you leave your wealth to your children or to charity?

The greatest wealth transfer in history looms, with trillions from the post-war generation set to change hands. How it unfolds will shape civilization’s future.

After lifetimes of work, creation, and sacrifice, millions of men and women confront the ultimate question of legacy: What will yours be?

Who will remember your name? Who will honor your memories after you are gone? How can you ensure your children and grandchildren thrive—happy, healthy, and successful—in a world that is rapidly changing?

Should you leave your wealth to your children, or would this spoil and corrupt them? Should you give everything to charities? How can you defend nepotism in a meritocratic age?

These are the questions that grip family leaders.

Leaving a Legacy delivers answers by reconnecting listeners with the timeless philosophy, theology, and practice of inheritance that built the Western world.

It defines the crucial distinctions: charity versus philanthropy, nepotism versus family duty. It weaves cautionary and inspirational tales of great figures and dynasties, grounded in the Christian tradition. It traces the history of how we arrived at this crisis of confusion.

Above all, Leaving a Legacy reveals that true charity is a multi-generational project—and that virtuous family dynasties are its indispensable guardians. It equips leaders to embrace this sacred duty and forge a legacy they will be forever proud of.
