Family Office Conversations with Fexingo: Wealth Management, Inheritance, and Generational Capital

In this episode of Family Office Conversations with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore the growing trend of family offices acquiring private aviation assets—not just using private jets, but owning the aircraft themselves and even the companies that manage them. They break down the economics: how a $70 million Gulfstream can be justified on a balance sheet, why fractional ownership is losing ground to full ownership among ultra-wealthy families, and how some offices are now investing in charter operators and maintenance firms to diversify their private equity portfolios. With 2026 seeing a record number of families opting for direct ownership over traditional chartering, the hosts discuss the tax advantages, the operational headaches, and the surprising liquidity of these assets. They also touch on the generational angle—how the next gen is reshaping what 'flying private' means, from sustainability concerns to shared-use models. Packed with specific numbers and real-world examples, this episode offers a clear-eyed look at why private aviation has become a serious asset class for family offices, not just a luxury perk.

Family offices have long chased asset-heavy plays like real estate and timberland. But in the last few years, a quieter consolidation has been happening in healthcare: private radiology groups. On this episode, Lucas and Luna break down the economics behind this trend, from the shift to teleradiology to the appeal of recurring, insurance-backed revenue. They walk through a typical deal structure, the regulatory hurdles, and why a specialty that once seemed recession-proof is now attracting serious institutional capital. If you've ever wondered how a family office thinks about buying a piece of the diagnostic imaging industry, this is the conversation for you.

In this episode of Family Office Conversations, Lucas and Luna explore a surprising new frontier for generational capital: dental support organizations, or DSOs. They start with the story of a single dental practice in Ohio that was quietly acquired by a family office-backed group, illustrating how consolidation is reshaping the $160 billion dental industry. Lucas breaks down the economics—how a typical practice generates strong cash flow, why dentists are selling to DSOs (increasing regulatory burden, desire to offload admin), and how family offices are structuring deals with roll-ups and earn-outs. They compare DSOs to the earlier wave of veterinarian consolidation, which began in the 1990s and now sees over 25 percent of vets employed by corporate groups. Luna raises the concern about quality of care and the potential backlash from patients, and Lucas acknowledges that family offices are now focusing on operational excellence to protect their investments. They also discuss the rise of 'dental service organizations' as a hedge against economic cycles, and how some family offices are even partnering with dental schools to secure a pipeline of talent. The episode concludes with a look at what might be next—orthodontics and oral surgery—and why family offices are betting on a future where smiles are big business.

In this episode of Family Office Conversations with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore a niche but growing asset class: aircraft hangar portfolios. Family offices are increasingly acquiring private hangar complexes at general aviation airports, drawn by long-term lease income, low maintenance costs, and the steady appreciation of scarce airport land. We discuss why hangars are becoming an attractive alternative to traditional real estate, how the economics work — including the crucial role of leasehold vs. freehold structures — and the risks, from environmental liabilities to the cyclicality of private aviation demand. The conversation centers on a recent deal involving a multi-family office consortium that purchased a 14-hangar complex at a regional airport in Florida for $22 million, and what that signals about broader trends in 'infrastructure-like' private assets. We also touch on how this ties into the generational wealth preservation goals of family offices, and what a listener should consider if they're evaluating a similar investment. Tune in for a practical look at a corner of the wealth management world that's flying under the radar.

On this episode of Family Office Conversations with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore a quiet corner of the alternative-asset world: self-storage. While family offices have piled into data centers and farmland, many are now eyeing the humble storage unit as a recession-resistant, cash-generating investment. Lucas breaks down the surprisingly strong fundamentals—average occupancy above 90 percent, steady rent growth, and low operating costs—and explains why the asset class has become a favorite for multi-generational capital. The conversation zooms in on a specific case: a single-family office in Phoenix that quietly acquired a portfolio of six facilities in secondary Sun Belt markets, targeting 12 percent cash-on-cash returns. Luna presses on the risks—interest-rate sensitivity, the threat of new supply, and the tricky question of property management—and they weigh the hands-on reality of a business that's still very much about collecting rent, not just clipping coupons. The episode closes with a practical checklist for families considering their first storage deal. Whether you're a wealth adviser, an investor, or just curious about where smart money is moving, this episode offers a fresh take on an asset class that most people walk past every day.

In this episode of Family Office Conversations with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore why family offices are increasingly drawn to commercial aircraft leasing as an alternative asset class. With airlines seeking flexibility and capital efficiency, lessors have become critical middlemen, and family offices are stepping in where banks have pulled back. Lucas breaks down the economics of a typical lease — how a $60 million jet can generate steady, inflation-linked returns — and discusses the risks, including cyclical demand and concentration in a few key lessors. Luna raises the question of whether the recent surge in air travel justifies the optimism, and they look at how smaller family offices can access this market through funds or co-investment platforms. They also touch on the impact of supply chain delays for new aircraft from Boeing and Airbus, and why that's actually been a tailwind for existing fleets. A practical look at a niche that's gaining quiet traction.

Lucas and Luna dive into the growing trend of family offices allocating capital to classic and collector cars. With the global classic car market exceeding $50 billion and the Hagerty index showing double-digit appreciation over the past decade, wealthy families are treating Ferraris and Porsches as alternative assets. The hosts discuss how family offices buy through LLCs, insure at Lloyds, and store in climate-controlled facilities. They also break down the liquidity challenges, the rise of peer-to-peer private sales, and why a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO can trade like a Picasso. A must-hear for anyone managing generational wealth seeking low-correlation returns beyond stocks and bonds.

Last quarter, a single bottle of The Macallan 1926 fetched $2.7 million at auction — and the buyer was almost certainly a family office. In this episode, we explore why ultra-wealthy families are allocating meaningful capital to rare whisky and fine wine as alternative assets, with double-digit annualized returns that rival private equity. We break down the logistics: auction dynamics, storage costs, authentication risks, and liquidity challenges. Plus, we look at platforms like Vinovest and WhiskyInvestDirect that are making these assets accessible even for smaller family offices. If you've wondered whether your portfolio should have a liquid allocation to collectibles, this episode offers a sober, data-driven framework.

Family offices are quietly becoming major players in distressed debt markets, buying portfolios of defaulted loans at deep discounts. In this episode, Lucas and Luna break down how one multi-family office deployed $120 million in the first half of 2026, acquiring nonperforming commercial real estate loans from regional banks. They explore the mechanics of working with special servicers, the patience required for restructuring, and why these yields—often in the low teens—appeal to investors with long time horizons. Lucas explains the edge family offices have over larger funds: no limited partners demanding quarterly liquidity, and the ability to hold assets through cycles. Luna asks how credit risk is managed and whether the new Basel III endgame rules are squeezing banks further. The episode closes with a look at what sectors—like retail and suburban office—offer the most opportunity right now.

Today we explore why family offices are increasingly allocating capital to timberland – a real asset that has delivered roughly 13% annualized returns over the past two decades with low correlation to equities. Lucas and Luna discuss the mechanics of investing through timberland investment management organizations (TIMOs), the liquidity considerations for patient capital, and the added revenue stream from carbon credits. Using a concrete example of a midwestern family office committing $150 million to a timberland fund, they break down the biological growth, inflation-hedging properties, and portfolio diversification benefits. The episode also touches on the environmental upside and the growing demand for natural capital among long-term investors.
