Protecting Wealth and Family Harmony in a $68 Million Estate & Legacy Plan (S4E18)

Legacy Beyond Wealth is a new podcast series by Providend that invites you into the heartfelt, often complex conversations behind legacy planning. In this series, we follow the story of Richard and Eva, successful business owners approaching retirement, now faced with tough questions: How can they distribute their assets wisely? How do they protect the legacy they’ve built? And most importantly, how do they preserve family harmony among their three children?

Being a trusted adviser to affluent clients for over two decades, Providend understands that true legacy planning is not just about transferring wealth. It is about passing down values, protecting relationships, and creating peace of mind for the next generation. Through this podcast, you’ll get a rare, behind-the-scenes look at real conversations between clients and their adviser.

In Episode 2, Richard and Eva return to review the initial estate and legacy plan proposed by their Client Adviser, Chris. The plan is crafted to protect their $68 million dollar estate, safeguard the family business, and ensure fairness among their children. They also raise a new concern: securing support for their elderly parents should anything happen to them.

Chris begins by clearly summarising their priorities using a structured planning framework. While the proposed plan initially feels overwhelming, Chris reassures them that legacy planning is a gradual journey. As their trusted adviser, he continues to guide them with empathy and clarity, offering both structure and support every step of the way.

At Providend, we believe good legacy planning should preserve not just wealth, but also relationships. It should offer clarity, not confusion. In each episode, you’ll hear how a thoughtful, values-based approach can bring peace of mind, not just for the clients, but for generations to come.
