In this episode, Brandon Neely sits down with estate planning and probate attorney Paul Deloughery to explore the deeper meaning behind inheritance, legacy, and wealth transfer. You'll hear Paul share eye-opening insights on why some families flourish after inheriting wealth, while others fall apart. The conversation goes beyond wills and trusts to uncover how estate planning is really about protecting relationships, not just assets.

Together, we discuss:

  • Why estate planning matters and the myths that keep people from doing it.
  • Paul's sudden inheritance story and the reality of Sudden Wealth Syndrome.
  • How grief, trauma, and family secrets can complicate financial decisions.
  • The dangers of poor planning, from taxes to risky investments.
  • Why passing down values and vision matters as much as passing down money.
  • Practical steps: family meetings, communication, and building a professional support team.
  • Why the greatest inheritance is love and connection, not just financial assets.
