Building a Family Framework

A successful plan includes:

  1. Communication – Establish open dialogue.

  2. Education – Teach children about money management.

  3. Legal Planning – Consider trusts or estate structures.

Financial Education in Action

  • Give allowances and open savings/checking accounts.

  • Teach about fraud, online safety, and money apps.

  • Encourage part-time jobs to build responsibility.

  • Some families create a “mission statement” to define long-term goals, including charitable giving.

 

Protecting Wealth with Legal Structures

Even with education, parents may worry about squandered wealth. Tools like trusts allow rules and guidelines for how assets are used, helping balance children’s needs with preservation of family resources.
