Jeremy Pryor's Podcast Build A Family That Lasts Forever with Johann Kurtz
I'm joined today by Johann Kurtz, author of the amazing new book Leaving a Legacy.
We discuss the idea of the Thousand Year Family, and talk about what modern American families can learn from aristocratic families that have lasted hundreds (or more) years.
This is a deep episode that covers everything from foundational beliefs and mindset about family, wealth, theology, and legacy, to a defense of nepotism versus meritocracy (seriously), to lessons from families that last for centuries.
On this episode, we talk about:
0:00 Intro
1:13 The Thousand Year Family
7:09 How To Pass On Great Wealth Without
17:26 Theology of Legacy
24:13 For Families Considering a Liquid Exit
34:44 Creating a Ruling Family
44:14 Defending Nepotism?
