Christian Stewart is a consultant in Hong Kong who started Family Wealth Legacy to help successful Asian families establish communication platforms and decision making structures for their family enterprise. Christian works with enterprising families as a process consultant, coach and family meeting facilitator. He helps families to form their own family council, family constitution and family policies, often in the context of planning for succession. He is a prolific author of excellent articles, which are available on his website, and the winner of many awards recognizing his thought leadership.
We had a rich conversation. Christian thinks succession should be thought of as a design process that breaks down the succession plan down into manageable components. For patriarchs consumed with management succession, Stewart gently reframes the narrative: “You have to invest in developing the human, intellectual, and social capital within the family.” He talks about the deep influence of Jay Hughes on his work, and elaborates on the interesting idea of co-regulating emotionally with his clients and the importance of meditation to his own work. Succession for Christian is not a transaction, but a multigenerational architectural feat.
Christian Stewart is the founder of Family Legacy Asia. He was previously a managing director at JP Morgan Private Bank, and head of wealth advisory in Asia. He was at PricewaterhouseCoopers in Hong Kong, as partner and head of the trust and private client group, and practiced law in Australia before that. Christian holds a bachelor of laws from the University of Adelaide.
Please enjoy my conversation with Christian Stewart.

“Generativity is the human impulse to nurture, to do good things for the next generation and to see myself, my life, in a sense, being extended through the possibilities in my children and grandchildren.”
Today, in conjunction with the James E Hughes Jr. Foundation, I’d like to present my interview with one of Jay’s longtime collaborators John A. Warnick. John A., as he is known, is the founder of the Purposeful Planning Institute, which trains lawyers, financial planners, trustees, and wealth managers to work with clients on their planning that is congruent with their core values and vision. He was a long-time trusts and estates lawyer himself in Colorado with the firm Holme Roberts and Owen, where he chaired the Private Clients Services Group. He left the firm and began collaborating with Jay Hughes and Tim Belber, and began to focus on ensuring that the affluence of his clients was a positive force in the lives of their following generations. John A received his bachelor’s magna cum laude from Brigham Young University and his JD from George Washington University with honors.
Please enjoy my interview with John A Warnick.

George Marcus wrote a book you probably haven’t heard of, but should. It is called Lives in Trust and it was published in 1992 and is $146 on Amazon right now.
Professor Marcus is an anthropologist who studied tribes in Tonga and then applied what he learned to study dynastic wealth in families starting in Texas. The book has great essays on the HL Hunt family, who tried to corner the silver market in 1980, the Bingham family, who fought over a newspaper chain in Kentucky, a study of two very different family fortunes in Galveston Texas, and an analysis of one of my favorite books, Old Money by Nelson Aldrich. He discusses the importance of your image of your ancestors and the creation of family ideology, the emptiness at the center of the Getty fortune, and a great essay by his collaborator the late respected philanthropic scholar Peter Dobkin Hall on the efforts of the Rockefeller family to control the narratives told about the family over decades.
In our discussion today, we talk about his career, the book, his interesting concept that he calls the “dynastic uncanny” and his fascinating dive into the meaning of nobility in the current-day Portuguese aristocracy.
I hope you enjoy my conversation with George Marcus.
Biography:
George Marcus is one of the world’s leading anthropologists. He is the Chancellor’s Professor at the University of California, Irving, and previously chaired the anthropology department at Rice University for twenty-five years. He is the author of dozens of books and articles including Ethnography Through Thick and Thin and Lives in Trust: The Fortunes of Dynastic Families in Late Twentieth-Century America. Professor Marcus received a B.A. from Yale in 1968 and a Ph.D from Harvard in 1976.

“Families that are failing spend all their time on power.”
Today's guest is Jay Hughes.
Jay and I had a deep and fascinating discussion about the development of the elder in a family, the importance of the midlife crisis, and transcendent values.
We also discussed many great pioneers in the family wealth field like Joanie Bronfman, Charlie Collier, and Peter Karoff, and we also talked about Matt Wesleys key paper on family culture, which I will link to in the show notes. Jay also mentioned that he is writing a new book with Mary K. Duke and Stacy Allred, and has a lecture course online with David Specht of the Drucker School, part of which I will also link to about the five capitals of wealth.
We turned over the new ideas in Wealth 3.0 and Jay had some great insights about how the industry restrains the field and how ideas evolve.
This is the inaugural interview The Inheritance Podcast in a series in conjunction with the James E. Hughes Jr Foundation. I’d like to invite you all to join us on this journey of exploration as I talk to Jay and those he has influenced Next up is Gunther Weil talking about values.
Jay Hughes is an author, advisor to families, and founder of a law partnership in New York that represented private clients throughout the world, and now retired from the active practice of wealth. His wonderful book, Family Wealth, Keeping it in the Family, has become a classic in the family wealth space, and where he warns that the shirtsleeves proverb is a warning and not a curse.
Please enjoy my interview with Jay Hughes.

Today we are speaking with once again Dr. James Grubman, an internationally recognized consultant to families of wealth, family businesses, and the advisors who serve them. He is the co-author of one of the buzziest books of the year called Wealth 3.0: The Future of Family Wealth Advising along with Dennis Jaffe and Kristin Keffeler, who I have also interviewed previously on this podcast. I wanted to talk to Jim and get some more color on his attitudes towards wealth advising, the issues with the literature and research in the space, how to escape from a fear-based mindset to one of growth around wealth, and why everyone does not necessarily want to create a dynasty.
Please enjoy my excellent conversation with Jim Grubman.

Jonathan Pageau is a French Canadian icon carver, public speaker and YouTuber exploring the symbolic patterns that underlie our experience of the world, how these patterns emerge and come together, manifesting in religion, art and in popular culture. He's also the editor of the Orthodox Arts Journal and host of the Symbolic World blog and podcast.
I was looking for someone to talk about Spiritual Captial, and was not disappointed. We talk about how money should be thought of as pure potential, how borrowing “accelerates time” and “pulls from the future.” We also discuss how you can get stuck worshiping the potential of money and forget the more important goals in life.
An absolutely fascinating conversation with Jonathan Pageau.
BIOGRAPHY: Jonathan Pageau graduated with distinction from the Painting and Drawing program at Concordia University in Montreal during the late 1990s. Quickly disillusioned with contemporary art, he discovered icons and traditional Christian images along his own spiritual journey. Rekindling his love of art through study of traditional forms, Jonathan developed a passion for wood carving. Having studied Orthodox Theology and Iconology at the University of Sherbrooke, since 2003 Jonathan has been carving different types of liturgical objects. His carvings have been commissioned by churches, bishops, priests and laypeople in the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia. He has participated is several exhibitions of icons and teaches icon carving with Hexamaeron. He is also an editor at the Orthodox Arts Journal.

Today I am very pleased to have Chip Fisher, CEO of Fisher Wallace Laboratories and head of Ursus Advisory, a peer to peer consultancy for young adults with inherited wealth.
Chip is an inheritor himself, and also an accomplished entrepreneur and philanthropist. He is currently CEO of his third company, Fisher Wallace Laboratories which makes medical devices, but he has also branched out into private consulting to counsel inheritors based on his own experience. Chip’s father was Avery Fisher, founder of Fisher Electronics which was a major midcentury high fidelity electronics firm and builder of the famous Fisher 400 for you audiophiles out there. He was also the former namesake of the famous Avery Fisher Hall, home of the New York Philharmonic at Lincoln Center, beloved by many generations of New Yorkers. When Chip was 21, he received a large inheritance, which was a joy, but also a great challenge, and that is the basis for our story today. I hope you enjoy my interview with Chip Fisher.

Our interview today is with Eric Schoenberg, who is one of the very few people deeply exploring inherited wealth in academia, and we cover his own inheritance and family life, why he became interested in studying wealth, economic concepts like the bequest motive, revealed preferences, and the wonderfully named “spite clause” as well as Eric’s considered thoughts on why people do what they do with their fortunes. He also speculates on who was the wealthiest American ever, and it is not who you think.
Eric Schoenberg was educated at Harvard, received an MBA from Wharton, worked as a diplomat at the State Department, and became a partner in an investment bank during the dot com boom. His experience there led him back to school at Columbia, where he attained a Ph.D. in psychology. He has taught at Columbia and Wharton, and recently released a limited podcast series of seven episodes called You Can’t Take it with You.
