ignorance is not bliss. ignorance causes problems.

the holistic guide to wealth management

after interviewing several thousand high-net-worth families, the u.s. trust study of the philanthropic conversation found that one-third of respondents (31%) would switch to a new advisor if that advisor could talk to them meaningfully about philanthropy.
