Never has it been more important to read Wealth: Grow It, Protect It, Spend It, and Share It. More of us have created more wealth today than ever before; managing our retirement assets is increasingly our own responsibility; and America is bracing for the largest intergenerational transfer of wealth in history. Added to this are the recent financial scandals which have left us confused about who to trust for good investment and wealth management advice. And because most advisors are specialists, the critical task of integrating the varied aspects of wealth management falls on our shoulders. Written by Stuart Lucas, an experienced investment professional, Carnation Company heir, and now manager of his family’s fortune, Wealth:

• Helps you to ntegrate the financial and family aspects of wealth management into an actionable, coherent whole;

• Provides the tools and information you need to take charge of your wealth, so that your advisors and your money are working toward achieving your goals;

• Addresses family relationships and values, preparing your children for affluence, the motives of advisors, spending, philanthropy, taxes, estate planning, investment strategies, and more.

In short, Wealth is the definitive guide to optimizing your financial future. The lessons of Wealth apply whether you have $100,000 or $100,000,000, whether your goal is to safeguard assets to last your lifetime or to create a financial legacy that will continue for generations.

Product description

From Publishers Weekly

Wealth: those who have it want to keep it, but what's the best way to ensure it doesn't run dry? Lucas is ideally suited to answer the question. A Harvard Business School graduate who's worked at wealth management firms, and a fourth-generation heir of E.A. Stuart, the founder of the Carnation Company, Lucas counsels readers who have, or are planning to have, at least a few hundred thousand dollars in the bank. His book teaches them to manage their wealth so it grows, or is at least maintained, for as long as they want, whether that's one lifetime or several generations. Lucas focuses principally on investing decisions, spending decisions (like whether to engage in philanthropy) and emotional issues. He provides a good balance of in-depth financial guidance and tips on negotiating financial decisions in the family. Though the subject is dry, Lucas keeps the book interesting by using examples taken from his own family's experience with fortune, a tactic that lends both credibility and intimacy to his advice. With its frequent plunges into the minutiae of investment options, this book is definitely not light reading. It is, however, a helpful guidebook for those faced with the task of growing, protecting, spending and sharing a large amount of cash. (Mar.)

Don't retire without reading this book!

Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2015

I am retired. If I were to spend down my saving at 4% each year (as we are told to do), I would have bleeding ulcers. This, easy to read and understand book, teaches you how to invest your money so you can live off the interest and dividends. You will not have to worry about running out of money and will be able to leave the principle to loved ones and/or charity. What a nice legacy! The author knows what he is talking about. A must read for those saving for retirement or who receive a large sum of money.

Stuart's life lessons.

Stuart has laid out a valuable book for all who will come into an inheritance. There are many lessons, and examples that can be a road map to what your family should do when this event takes place. There are so many ways to go wrong and make poor decisions when preparing to receive wealth that a parent or family member leaves for you. This book helps to guide you in what needs to be done, so that you can bless your family and others with what you are given.

Good for the Basics

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2008

Verified Purchase

Worthwhile so long as you skim past the biographical prose and get to the basic nuggets of financial planning offered. A good basic introduction to wealth management for those that have no background working with private bankers, financial planners and/or selecting their own investments. Not a great book for learning how to invest nor where to find qualified investment professionals.
