Generational wealth isn’t lost in market downturns—it’s often lost in silence. In an appearance on the Investing for Generational Wealth podcast, Mesirow Wealth Advisor Jeff Condren, CFP®, challenges one of the most common (and costly) assumptions families make: that avoiding tough money conversations preserves harmony.
Drawing on two decades of experience advising multi‑generational families and business owners, Jeff explores why productive conflict, structured communication and clarity around values are essential to preserving wealth across generations.
