So many of our clients ask us the age-old question, “How much is enough?”
How much of my wealth should I give to my children?
At what age should I share my estate plan with my family?
How do I prepare my children for the responsibility of the wealth they will inherit?
Our guests on today’s podcast have spent the better part of their careers answering these questions. Steve Fradkin is President of Wealth Management at Northern Trust.
Pam Lucina lead’s Northern Trust’s Trust & Advisory Practice and is President of The Northern Trust Institute.
