Unexpected Wealth

The prospect of a new, expanded generation of unprepared heirs has spawned an entire industry of financial advisors and estate planners:

- Sudden Money Institute, who counsels those who stumbled abruptly into vast sums of money

- Family Wealth Alliance, which helps ultra-high-net-worth families find the right kinds of staffing;

- Relative Solutions, which helps heirs make sure their relationships don't destroy family-run businesses; and 

- Wealthbridge Partners for families whose net worths exceed $200 million
