Make the time, to take your time..
You’ve got to care enough about your family to want to plan for them when you die
By default, the legacy tax planning you’re providing for your family is what you’re prepared to put up with. Like it or not, that’s the ending you’re choosing..
You’ll have a massive say in your family’s future, but you can’t control everything. Some risks you can control, some you can’t, some imperil the future of humankind..
Can’t control loss of biodiversity due to human actions, the mass dumping of waste, large scale deforestation, soil erosion, pollution caused by farming, cities, industry and transport..
Can’t control the sun, or radiation from it, or the tilt of the planet, or its irregular orbit, or the atmosphere
Can’t control movement in the earth’s tectonic plates, or the constant reforming of ocean floors, and landmasses. We’re stuck with volcanic eruptions, tsunamis and earthquakes
Can manage some risks, but parents still choose to bring up their children in Los Angeles, and Beijing ,and Tokyo, all cities one mega-volcanic eruption away from disaster
Your family are worth it. Replay your memorable experiences: holding your children that first time, their first steps, first day at school, awards, vacations, graduations..
As in life, certainty in tax planning simply doesn’t exist. You can’t be sure what the people you know will do, let alone those you don’t. Success is never certain. Plan, monitor, and maintain, always works
Teddy Roosevelt wraps this up: “In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing..”
