  • The Millionaire Next Door
  • Your Money or Your Life

Perfect for you if...

  • You're worried your children will squander their inheritance or that family money will cause rifts between siblings after you're gone.
  • You have real assets to protect and want to understand estate tax without hiring a £5,000-an-hour lawyer for every answer.
  • You've seen other families fall apart over money and want to plan differently for yours.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You have minimal assets and a straightforward will. This book goes deep into protection strategies that may be overkill for simpler estates.
  • You're looking for generic financial advice. This is specifically about structuring what you leave behind, not how to earn or invest it.
  • You prefer a quick read. At 534 pages, this is thorough rather than skimmable.

About this book

This handbook addresses practical aspects of transferring money to heirs. It covers how to ensure inheritance instructions are followed as intended, and how to protect inheritances from creditors, ex-spouses, addiction issues, tax problems, mismanagement, and other threats to the assets. The book also discusses strategies to minimize family conflict when parents pass away and assets are divided, methods to maximize the amount children and grandchildren receive while minimizing IRS obligations, and ways to avoid common inheritance planning mistakes through examples of what can go wrong. Additionally, it explains why estate tax considerations remain relevant even when a person's net worth is below the current death-tax exemption threshold.
