May was a wildly full month for financial planning. We talked about charitable giving, supporting children, managing risks, income sourcing and timing, vacation properties, rightsizing, post-secondary expenses, a host of different personal goals, and the ever-present "do we have enough?" Effectively a financial planning gauntlet. Showing a client they made it all happen, or outlining steps for them to get there, is a great feeling. But the best is hearing: 'Thank you. This was really helpful, we feel good about this.' If you don't have a financial plan yet, or it has been a few years since you updated yours, reach out to your advisor and get started. If you don't have an advisor, or are unsure how to start the planning process (perhaps what to ask), send me an email or a DM. I'll help however I can. e: christopher.mahussier AT cibc.com

Founding Partner at The Capital Stewards | Help Huntsville Business Leaders + Non-Profits | Reduce Taxes & Invest Wisely | Focused on Stewardship
How do you set your kids up for financial success? How should you give resources without "spoiling" them? Desiring to build a financial foundation for your children, in other words, “multi-generational wealth”, is more common than you may think. Generational wealth is about building assets that provide opportunities and flexibility for future generations of your family. That does not mean you need to become a Rockefeller, a Vanderbilt, or have your name on a library. But how do you build wealth for your family without destroying you kids? 1) Engage your kids in business, investment, and planning early and often. When you hire a team member, it takes days, weeks even years to train them to fulfill a role. Stewarding wealth is no different. It takes active training over long periods of time to build the next generation of stewards. Transferring wealth is about the training period. Engage them in decision making around your family business (large or small) and include them in the investment decision making process before they have formal control. Your kids have probably figured out their socio-economic status by high school, so pretending you don’t have any money when they are in their 30’s is counterproductive. If you engage them in decision making in their 20s and 30s, by the time they are in control, good stewardship will be second nature. 2) Focus on What Matters Going beyond the P&L and building their understanding of your real goals is critical. You probably don’t manage your business solely to increase returns to equity holders and cash flow. Why are you in this business? Does your business help the community thrive? As you engage your children and grandchildren in decision making, help them connect to the real purpose behind your family assets. If they understand and share the “why,” they are way more likely to carry that mission on long-term.

More Than Money is the first of its kind. It’s a collection of inspiring true stories that reveal how real clients applied financial planning to achieve tangible results that changed their lives. The book is being published by Harriman House -- the same group that brought us The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel which has now sold 2 million copies. My favorite part of this book is that 100% of net proceeds are being donated back to non–profit organizations dedicated to improving financial literacy.
