Johann Kurtz (Becoming Noble) - Leaving a Legacy

My Conversation With the Author of an Important New Book on Building 1,000 Year Families

I speak with with the semi-pseudonymous

on his terrific new book Leaving a Legacy: Inheritance, Charity, & Thousand-Year Families. Johann lays out the foundation for why it can be moral to leave an inheritance when pared with virtue. We talk how ‘Die with Zero’ misses the mark, why true charity is necessarily multi-generational, family business as a conduit for generational continuity, and what J.K. Rowling instinctively understands about the re-enchantment of the world.
