There are real lessons to learn from the families who cultivate generational wealth, and they go far beyond the money. This week I sit down with Bogumil Baranowski, a Polish-born investor who came to New York to live the American dream and has spent two decades managing wealth for families. He's the author of four books, a TEDx speaker, and the host of the podcasts Talking Billions and co-host of 100 Year Thinkers. We talk about his childhood in communist Poland and how it influenced his career as an investor and Warren Buffett devotee. We discuss stewardship and how lasting family wealth has less to do with trust funds and more to do with family culture. He also discusses how money is not a prerequisite for living a truly rich life.
