Yet many families never succeed in realizing that vision, much less sustaining it for three, four, or five generations and beyond.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e James Hughes has thought deeply about these challenges, and his insights are at once practical and profound. For more than three decades, he has personally guided multiple generations of families in creating strategies to preserve their human and intellectual capital as well as their financial assets. His teachings synthesize insights from psychology, anthropology, political history, philosophy, economic theory, and the law, with examples ranging from Aristotle to cutting-edge social science theory. His ideas have been taken up by numerous exceptional families, by their advisers, and by scores of authors, practitioners, and academics who have found value in the methods he pioneered.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The first edition of this book, privately published, became a word-of-mouth classic. Now, Hughes has updated and substantially expanded it with new chapters that challenge conventional notions of wealth and offer guidelines for conserving family assets in the broadest senses. Filled with tested principles and practices for family governance and joint decision making, it is a rich source of workable wisdom that family members can put into practice today, to the enduring benefit and gratitude of future generations.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49553869439249,"sku":"GOR004690391","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49700661428497,"sku":"CIN157660151XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":50096980066577,"sku":"CIN157660151XLN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50298316390673,"sku":"CIN157660151XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50555925692689,"sku":"GOR008992629","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":53252655808785,"sku":"CIN157660151XA","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/157660151X.jpg?v=1751212804"},{"product_id":"family-book-james-e-hughes-jr-jr-9781576600245","title":"Family","description":"Why do some families thrive for generations?

Beyond the tax saving and wealth management implications, giving to family members opens up a slew of thorny questions, the biggest of which is, \"How do I prepare recipients of such large gifts?\" With that question and others in mind, Hughes, Massenzio, and Whitaker have written \u003ci\u003eThe Cycle of the Gift\u003c\/i\u003e in three main parts: \"The Who of Giving,\" \"The How of Giving,\" and \"The What and Why of Giving.\" The first part focuses on the people most deeply involved in family giving, especially the recipients and givers (parents, grandparents, spouses, trustees). The second part, \"The How of Giving,\" addresses the delicate balance of givers who want to maintain some level of control and recipients who want some level of freedom in accepting and growing their gifts. The final part, \"The What and Why of Giving\" describes various types of gifts, from money to business interests to values and rituals. The authors also introduce their \"family bank\" concept as a model that combines loans, trusts, and outright gifts. It embodies a framework and set of practices for long-term family growth. Even families without great wealth--or those who have already made large gifts to their children and grandchilren--can benefit from the human wisdom and practical advice found in \u003ci\u003eThe Cycle of the Gift\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49899550998801,"sku":"CIN1118487591VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50150106661137,"sku":"CIN1118487591G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51082674307345,"sku":"NIN9781118487594","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52901682118929,"sku":"NGR9781118487594","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1118487591.jpg?v=1773316137"},{"product_id":"voice-of-the-rising-generation-book-james-e-hughes-jr-jr-9781118936511","title":"The Voice of the Rising Generation","description":"Avoid Shirtsleeves to Shirtsleeves by Finding Your Voice    Growing up in a family with significant wealth or a family business can often feel like an exercise in silence.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":50371421602065,"sku":"CIN1118936515LN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50378251305233,"sku":"CIN1118936515G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51020240519441,"sku":"NIN9781118936511","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52430902886673,"sku":"NLS9781118936511","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53370828194065,"sku":"CIN1118936515VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1118936515.jpg?v=1750709658"},{"product_id":"family-book-james-e-hughes-jr-9781119086772","title":"Family","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51020012880145,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51020015075601,"sku":"NIN9781119086772","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1119086779.jpg?v=1750752531"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-ie\/collections\/author-books-by-james-e-hughes-jr.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
