It includes practical tools to address the failure rate in estate transitions, focusing on values and intra-family dynamics.

📻 what to listen to

I was recommended the Possible podcast recently. It’s a show that “sketches out the brightest version of the future”. In this award winning episode, hosts Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger talk to Trevor Noah about the future of AI and entertainment. The episode is from back in 2023 (an age in terms of AI), but it explores fascinating questions around AI and the entertainment industry.

📺 what to watch

How to Become a Friend Billionaire. Andrew Wilkinson speaks with Nick Gray (author of The 2-Hour Cocktail Party) on how to meet and host billionaires.
