The Difference Between Making Money and Preserving Wealth
Making wealth and preserving wealth are two very different things. Making money involves using your skills and talents to produce an income. But preserving wealth involves creating a strategy to build generational wealth.
What the Rule of Thirds Is
Wealthy families understand the importance of diversifying. The rule of thirds is allocating wealth into three separate categories: real estate/land, gold, and priceless art.
Why Real Estate Is a Hedge Against Inflation
Typically speaking, real estate appreciates over time. In times of inflation, home values (and rent amounts) also increase. However, during an economic crash, it is possible to see a decrease in value. Overall, this typically does not matter to the investor, as you’re still receiving cash flow month after month!
