Welcome to the ENT!

What are some of the tax benefits of motion picture product used by some of the most successful families?

Nathan Merrill is an expert at creating tax equity. In this episode, Nate teaches us about movies. In the US Tax Code, Section 181, a movie producer is afforded significant tax breaks. They must be in the business of movie production, but the costs can offset income from any source, making it appealing for business owners with significant income. Make sure to stay all the way through the end when Nate discusses some of the cons and shortcomings in addition to all these tax benefits.

As always, it is good to have an expert on your side.

Welcome to the ENT!

How can you make sure that your children, and grandchildren, know the stories that lead to your family’s success?

Family history, recorded in video, audio or written formats, can make an immeasurable impact in the lives of our loved ones. Taylor Smith and Jeff Krommendyk interview Jamie Younger, founder and CEO of Storykeep, to discuss her company's work in creating bespoke films and audio-based media to capture family history and values for high net worth families. Jamie shares practical advice all of us can benefit from.

Jamie continues her conversation with Taylor Smith, Goodspeed Merrill, and Jeff Krommendyk. This episode talks about the gifts a recorded story gives the next generation. First, the stories themselves are powerful. Second, the younger generations can be recorded as well; and later on, be able to tell their succeeding generations about their experiences. Everyone, young and old, has the ability to tell a story. And sometimes, just one thing inside the story, is the turning point for someone else–unintentionally improving their lives for good!

Jamie says, “a family’s story, is part of their estate.” Explore the power of storytelling in estate planning, family transitions, and making compelling legal documents. One of Jamie’s keys to success is to emphasize the importance of human connection and inclusivity in capturing family stories across generations. 

Jamie gives an example of a Japanese American family who never spoke about the elder generation’s WWII internment camp experience–and it opened up the family conversations, providing value in countless ways.
