Spend It Now or Save It for the Kids? The New Reality of the Great Wealth Transfer

The “Great Wealth Transfer” may not look the way we expected — and the stories might surprise you.

After embracing the holiday season, we discuss how the “Great Wealth Transfer” is happening — but not exactly how the headlines predicted. Greg and Kristen unpack a new Charles Schwab study showing that many high-net-worth Baby Boomers are choosing to enjoy their money now rather than pass it all down. They explain why the real key isn’t whether you leave money behind — it’s knowing what you actually spend, planning for the lifestyle you want, and creating enough protected income to support the life you choose. Whether you want to give, save, or spend it all, a solid income plan brings the confidence to enjoy retirement on your terms.
